Had to cycle 2 times to alternate mode and back for it to work

As the title says, did not work out of the box. Had to press up 16 times to get to alternate mode - still did not work. Pressed up 16 times again to get back to regular mode - worked like a charm.

Desk: Bekant small production 2020.

This is meant more like feedback than an issue, so you can close it straight away.

Great job anyway!

Suggestion: maybe mention this as a workaround in your troubleshooting section?

I suspect that this is not actually a result of toggling back and forth, but rather in doing so, you did a reset and got a proper initialization - which is noted in the docs :) The handshake fails from time to time so perhaps you got unlucky the first time.

I did power cycle it a couple of times before (which did not help), so not sure
