If I seal the TinyG in an enclosure, how do I bring the reset button to the outside?
How to bring out the reset button?
From the original Synthetos forum (2011–2025)
The best way is just to wire another switch across the existing switch terminals. This entails soldering a pair of wires to the surface mount leads. In a future revision I will probably make a 2 pin connector for this. Are you OK with the soldering or do you need further clarification or assistance?
What are the differences between a reset from the reset button and a reset from the Amax limit switch? Could you just wire a button to the Amax limit switch to use for a reset?
The difference is that the amax limit must be configured as a limit, and it's not actually a reset - it's an interrupt that causes the system to go into a shutdown mode, not a reset. Using the reset button - if you really want a reset - is more reliable.
I wired a switch onto a 6 pin 2 row header and plugged it into the programming header, saves soldering onto the board.
