Reach power control with a physical button

[bide]

@Georgios_Vasil

Unfortunately I ended up with a corrupted geojson file (0 bytes) and as a result loss of the “project”.

So I am a little bit concerned that this loss was due to violent power removal.

This should have been fixed in ReachView 2.8.0

RCH-745 - Surveying projects data isn’t synced to disk, which sometimes results in data loss

Have you updated to version 2.8.0?

Not sure about wiring a power switch to the GPIO pins. I think the answer to that question would be answered better on an Intel Edison forum. On my own Reach modules, I make use of the switch on my power supply when I can. Emlid has previously stated that power disconnect is an approved method of powering off the Reach module, and that they have taken steps to counteract loss of data.
