Board Buttons

The Baldrick comes with three ports to attach external buttons that when pressed these will execute a GET request to a URL set in the web interface.

You can also simulate an external button press by pushing the test buttons on the side of each port with a single press.

Each button also has a special feature that activates when held for 5 seconds

Button 1

Activates a FULL RAINBOW TEST on all ports (configured pixels only at 30% brightness)

When held during the boot process this will reset all network settings back to DHCP and act like you never changed them

Button 2

Activates Hodgical Mode on all ports (configured pixels only at 30% brightness)

Button 3

When held for 5 seconds during the board boot process, the controller will reset to factory settings, everything will be removed including the latest firmware and it will be the the 'shipping state' where you click to update to the latest firmware
