Configurations

Changes can be made by modifying /home/pi/.config/openbox/environment

• FTCEVENTSERVER_EVENTCODE - The eventcode for the event. Refer to the FTC scoring system for this value. NOTE: When manually entering an event code you still have to use the DIP Switches to configure the MODE and FIELD.
• FTCEVENTSERVER_IP - IP Address of the FTC server running the scorekeeping software.
• KIOSKURL - URL you would like to display instead of the FTC scoring system (e.g. Twitch Feed)

Troubleshooting

Black Screen

If you receive just a black screen

1. Check the last entries in the log file at /home/pi/RPIKiosk.log.
2. If the log file has not updated recently run the following command to fix the line endings in autostart and reboot. sudo dos2unix /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart
