On/off button does not restart the system #73

The on/off button turns off the system, but does not restart it; instead the confirm button has this function.

@abukhalaf, this behavior is intended. It is not a bug.

To clarify, the button is not actually an on/off button.

The on/off button was removed from the last hardware release which included a push-button on the low-voltage power input. Instead it was replaced with a momentary "Stop" button and the other button is a "Set/Start" button. This was done for regulatory reasons.

The summarize, the intended behavior is that the system is stopped by holding the "stop" button, and then started again using the "Set/Start" button.

Excellent documentation of the intended behavior. Thanks! Closing the issue.
