Shutting down Mudi GL-E750

Unfortunately, after 3 years of purchasing the Mudi GL-E750, I still haven't found a way to shut it down without physically going to where the modem is located and pressing the button for more than 5 seconds.

Commands like poweroff or halt sent through SSH end up leading to a stuck “Booting” state, which drains the battery just as if the modem were powered on.

Since I use it to navigate at sea, routing the 4G connection when close to land, I would like to turn it off when going to sleep without having to go outside in the weather to shut it down.

Even if it’s not possible from the Admin Panel or the Luci panel, or even from the phone app, is there any way to send an effective SSH command to shut it down properly?

As explained from @alzhao here:

It is possible to shutdown Mudi GLE750 wirelessly without phisically pressing the button.

The command

ubus call mcu cmd_json {\"poweroff\":\"1\"}

Should be executed via SSH. If it’s on firmware above 4.x it will work.

Theres a script to create a drop down menu in Luci with the Power Off option.

Im trying to remove the MCU Control` menu dropdown and set the Power Off button aside logout, but did not found a way yet

If any can edit this script will be so appreciated.
