What is the button for?

There is a small button next to where the usb cord plugs in. What is that for?

Its the power button

It has a few functions. A quick press while the device is on will put the device into sleep mode where the LEDs turn off and the machine pauses. You can also turn it back on with a quick press.

A 3 second hold will reset the networking settings. An 8 second hold will do a full device reset including the memory and network settings.

Why on Earth isn’t this explained in the app tutorial or in a printed guide?? I shouldn’t have to come to an online forum for this basic info.

As my mother would say, if you don’t have something nice/constructive to say…
Hope you’re day is going better.

Hello all - sometimes a quick press of this button turns off my device, as discussed here.
Other times, my device turns off briefly (for 1-2 seconds) and then starts up again. The only remedy seems to be to unplug the device and plug it back in again - and the quick press seems to work again.
Has anyone else had this problem?

This is helpful to know! I assumed it was a reset button so I haven’t pressed it, and end up unplugging it every night. Helpful to know that a quick press is the on/off button! :slight_smile:

I noticed that the device will immediately wake back up if I have the app open. If I close the app, then the device will stay off when I turn it off. And opening the app back up will wake the device back up. Hope this helps in your situation!

@nilsbifano Yes, the app will wake up the device.

Thank you
