"Service utility" for the Very Serious Button

VerySeriousButton-vsbutil

"Service utility" for the Very Serious Button (https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/very-serious-button). This code was built for testing and initial programming of Very Serious Buttons during production. It is being provided as a tool for advanced users and a reference to demonstrate how the configuration interface works. No warranty is provided. Use at your own risk.

Requires:

• Reasonably recent Windows, Linux or Mac OS X
• python-hidapi (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/hidapi/0.7.99-4)

Usage:

See online help (./vsbutil.py --help)

Examples:

./vsbutil.py setjoy
./vsbutil.py saveconfig

./vsbutil.py setkey ctrl+c
./vsbutil.py saveconfig

./vsbutil.py setkeys shift+h e l l o comma space w o r l d shift+1

Notes:

Configuration changes made by the "setjoy" or "setkey" commands are applied in RAM and will not persist across a reset unless you explicitly call the "saveconfig" command afterward. However, the "setkeys" command causes the configuration to be saved immediately.
