Mode button with multiple presses
=================================

[◀ Go back to main README](../README.md)

🛈 This script can not be used on its own but requires the base installation.
See [main README](../README.md) for details.

Description
-----------

This script extend the functionality of mode button. Instead of just one
you can trigger several actions by pressing the mode button several times.

The hardware needs to have a mode button, see
`/ system routerboard mode-button`. Starting with RouterOS 6.47beta60 you
can configure the reset button to act the same, see
`/ system routerboard reset-button`.

Copy this code to terminal to check:

```
:if ([ :len [ /system routerboard mode-button print as-value ] ] > 0) do={
  :put "Mode button is supported.";
} else={
  :if ([ :len [ /system routerboard reset-button print as-value ] ] > 0) do={
    :put "Mode button is not supported, but reset button is.";
  } else={
    :put "Neither mode button nor reset button is supported.";
  }
}
```

Requirements and installation
-----------------------------

Just install the script:

    $ScriptInstallUpdate mode-button;

Then configure the mode button to run `mode-button`:

    / system routerboard mode-button set enabled=yes on-event="/ system script run mode-button;";

To use the reset button instead:

    / system routerboard reset-button set enabled=yes on-event="/ system script run mode-button;";

Configuration
-------------

The configuration goes to `global-config-overlay`, these are the parameters:

* `ModeButton`: an array with defined actions
* `ModeButtonLED`: led to give visual feedback

Usage and invocation
--------------------

Press the mode button. :)
