Why 2 Button on the back of Video Doorbell Pro Camera?
On the back of the Video Doorbell Pro cameras there are two recessed buttons; one larger one over the USB connector and one smaller one over the power contacts. What are the uses for these buttons?
In a call with tech support they had me press the big button for several seconds and it seemed to reset the camera to default (new) configuration and I then had to re-connect to my system like I did when it was new. So what is the small button for?

AFAIK it's a power reset for the doorbell itself, though I haven't pulled it apart to see exactly what the button does. It could just be a leftover from the internal Alpha testing, and they just decided to leave it there without actually having it do anything.
Just my thoughts though.

If we are speculating I'd guess that one is a hard reset that clears all settings to factory default while the other maybe keeps camera settings and only resets network settings allowing you to reconnect the camera. But I'm just guessing. It would be nice to get confirmation from SimpiSafe on the function of both buttons.
