Can you refresh a grid with a custom button?

[Tracey]

I have a grid linked to some datetimepickers and I want to be able to set them back to their defaults with a button press which ideally would refresh the grid as well. Is it possible to use the refresh function through means other than the built in refresh button?

Edit:
Nevermind, I found it. If anyone else needs to know, just link a button to a function that uses this code: 

$("#gridname").data("kendoGrid").dataSource.read();
