A Panic Button is a single-shot emergency beacon employed by the UNSC armed forces. It has two settings: The 'red' setting sent out a distress signal, informing allies that the team's mission had failed and they needed immediate assistance. The 'green' signal merely activated a homing beacon to inform UNSC forces of the location of a hidden objective.[1]
In 2525, the Spartans used a panic button to mark a homing beacon on Eridanus Secundus. Despite this, the asteroid base survived until 2552.
In 2552, Kamal Zaman hacked his chatter to use as a Panic Button should things go south while meeting with gangster Aiden Maki.
