Handlet™ – With Buttons

Handlet™ – With Buttons

Please, see the Simplest Scenario how to get started with Handlet™

Control Handlet™ with Power and Wifi On/Off buttons and visualize its internal state, e.g. battery level. Momentary buttons with LED is recommended!

Any buttons fulfilling the dimension requirements as described here will fit to Handlet™. Builtin LED indicators are recommended!

We recommend Green Pushbutton for the Power and Blue Pushbutton for the Wifi from The PiHut. Both are not needed, you can install e.g. only Power button and use Button Cover for the other one.

Button dimension requirements

Some soldering or wiring is needed!

Prerequisites

Please, see the Handlet™ – With Battery how to get started with portable Handlet™, everything else in this tutorial is built on top of the mentioned scenario.

We recommend Green Pushbutton for the Power and Blue Pushbutton for the Wifi from The PiHut. Both are not needed, you can install e.g. only Power button and use Button Cover for the other one. You can control the Wifi from the operating system and Power using button and in addition create different blinking scenarios for Power LED (e.g. blink the button when battery threshold is 10%, blink even faster when the threshold is 5%). With the second button you can control Wifi or whatever you wish.

No other accessories needed.
