Alarmknop


Explanation:
'Alarmknop' - plain and simple, since you're referring to an alarm switch.
For references: just type 'Alarmknop' on the website pages of e.g. the Metacrawler search engine.

Marijke's 'Bewakingscircuitalarm' sounds a bit too 'wordy' (roundabout way) & I've never encountered this word as such so far. But if it doesn't exist yet, it doesn't mean it shouldn't :)
