So you mean it would have no effect, yes? On restart it will have the same settings and firmware it did prior to pressing the reset button?

I looked at the QMK docs to see about using it from the terminal. But I am not clear about how to get around the issue of the firmware not being up to date.

I don’t quite trust various bits and pieces I’ve found about how to use it around the web. Like the configurator page for this device says

Reset Key: Hold down the key located at K00, commonly programmed as Esc while plugging in the keyboard.

compared to the keychron docs I linked to in the OP which says

reset the keyboard by pressing fn + J + Z (for 4 seconds)

And also describes an actual reset button located under the space bar.

Why are they different…? It seems like keychron probab knows how to reset their own device. So I wonder if it is a good idea to load anything from this qmk page using methods I don’t understand well because I’d never be able to get myself out of a mess.
