Button Control
The button control reads digital input and continues to fire events while the state is active.
Overview
The button control is very similar to the switch because it only reads digital on or off. However, the advantage of the button is it will continue to fire events while the state is true.
Configuration
Set the type to button in your control configuration:
JSON
{
"controls": [
{
"pin": 11,
"type": "button",

}

}

Returns

Note
Unlike the switch control, the button will continuously fire events as long as the state remains active rather than only on state change.
