Mode button with multiple presses

◀ Go back to main README

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, the only parameter is:

  • ModeButton: an array with defined actions

Usage and invocation

Press the mode button. :)
