D4V2 - Can you turn off the AUX LEDS but keep on the backlit button?

Pretty much just what it says in the title. I’m guessing one would need the flashing kit but I’m not really sure. If you do need the flashing kit to edit the code what would the implementation look like? Thanks for helping!

Welcome to BLF!

I have a D4V2 in my hot little hands as we speak; I have the auxiliary leds Off, and the switch button is black plastic, and I don't know how to backlight the plastic switch button. I never saw it backlit. When I get hopelessly lost in Anduril, I just reset.

I found this: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/60381

No, not by default with the current firmware.

The aux led section of the code also sets the button led to off, low or high.

It looks like lockout mode and off mode sections of Anduril 2 could be modified so that you can cycle the button led between off, low and high based on a certain number of clicks.

EDIT:
I looked at the Anduril 2 firmware for 30 minutes and it’s not a super easy modification to separate the RGB AUX from the Button LED.

These files might need to be updated:
aux-leds.c
aux-leds.h
load-save-config.c
load-save-config.h
lockout-mode.c
momentary-mode.c
off-mode.c
cfg-emisar-d4v2.h

I believe only the newer ones with the clear switch are back-lit. I have two, and neither of them are lit.

Alright I’ll keep looking into it thanks for your help

Yeah, only the Ti, Brass, and Copper have the backlit button by default but you can get one on an Alu per request to hank.

There is a fork of Anduril 2 that allows it

It is possible:

Sweet! Thanks for your help! I guess I’ll be makeing another order to hank :wink:
