Question:  

​Can I reset a Muse controller using the ID button?


Answer:

YES.

The ID Pushbutton functionality is as follows:

ID Button Hold Duration Status LED color Function Performed on Release
Not held Green, blinking if scripts are running Running normally
  0 – 10 seconds White, fast blinking Running normally, ID broadcast sent
