The Main button option can remap the sequence on your button ring if the BT* pad sequence that you solder the wire is not the same as the official one. This function is only available in key* HID mode.
And, this only works if you solder a wire on BT* pad or the upstream pad. Or, you will need to type your definition by pressing Insert.
The Aux button option can remap the sequence of auxiliary button like Test, Service, Navigate, and Coin. In this option, you can only type the GP number, for most people may don't use them.
Moreover, there's no extended pads for Test and Coin on the official IO board v1.0. For the two aux buttons, you will need to solder the wire directly from the pads from Pico, and find a pad for ground. Due to this reason, the function was designed like this.
