LEDs
X96 Mini uses LEDs with 3 pins (blue+ pin, GND, red+ pin). The red+ pin is connected to the 3v VCC so the LED will light up at red colour when the box is connected to the power. The blue+ pin is connect to the GPIO and it is configured to be powered on when pmOS boots up. Therefore the LED will turn into blue when pmOS boots up.
How to manually power off the blue+ pin:
# echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/x96-mini:blue:power/brightness
How to manually power on the blue+ pin :
# echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/x96-mini:blue:power/brightness
