 ===== Introduction =====
 \\
-The Raspberry Pi Pico has a RUN pin, see below.
+The method to reset the Pico here is the same as in the previous simple version of the code. What has changed here is that we are using a more complex Micro Python program to show a better use case.

+==== Running Example ====
+\\
+In the video below we can see the RUN button in operation.
+\\
+\\
+{{ :pico-run-button-003.mp4?400x260 |}}
+\\
+To start with the traffic light sequence is running, I then press the following buttons:
+\\
+  * 1. The breakout button. This stops the code (main.py).
+  * 2. The RUN button, this resets the Pico.
+  * 3. The breakout button. This stops the code again.
+  * 4. The RUN button, this resets the Pico.
+This is a really nice way to start the Pico, or to restart the Pico, when you are doing a lot of testing, rather than plugging and unplugging cables all the time
