MintyComboScript

This script is used in conjuction with latest MintyPi board for battery monitoring and the use of a series of shortcut combos to perform various task.

This script will display a battery icon according to battery level and will show a warning video when reaching low level. Upon critical battery level, the script will show a critical battery level warning video and then introduce a safe shutdown. The battery monitoring can be toggled on or off with a combo shortcut.

Also included in this script is the ability to perform shorcut combos with the use of a mode button to change volume, dimming level, toggle wifi and bluetooth, and do a quick and graceful shutdown. Also included is a combo to display the list of combos available.

The mode button is by default an independant button installed to GPIO 7 but the script has the ability to use 'Start' as a mode as well if no indepandent mode button is present. This option can be changed by altering the value in /boot/mintypi/pinfile.txt from 7 to 15.

Combo Shortcuts

  • Mode + A = Toggle Battery
  • Mode + Y = Toggle Wifi with Icon
  • Mode + B = Toggle Bluetooth with Icon
  • Mode + X = Initiate Safe Shutdown
  • Mode + Dpad Right = Volume Up with Icon
  • Mode + Dpad Left = Volume Down with Icon
  • Mode + Dpad Up = Dimming Up
  • Mode + Dpad Down = Dimming Down
  • Mode + Right Shoulder = Display Shortcut Cheatsheet
