Disable Hot Spot

Post by Sambolini94 »

Hi All,

Giving this a go in place of Open Auto Po that was abandoned and opendsh that takes quite a bit of customazation and needing a solution that at least works AA for my weeks road trip in September.

To make life easier I'm doing a lot of setting up and changes via VNC as my screen is already installed in my car with my previous build. Though I have noticed as part of the install it activates Hotspot automatically which means I can't access my pi without a screen, how do I de-activate that or still manage to either ssh or vnc my pi once Hudiy is installed?

I've tried going to the main.configuartion.json file and setting hotspot section as false but that doesn't seem to work...

Thanks,

Sam

Hello,
The hotspot automatically turns off when the Hudiy application is closed (e. g. by pressing ALT + F4 or via pkill hudiy command). If you want to disable the hotspot completely, you can do so in the settings (Settings -> Application in System category) or in the main_configuration.json file (Hudiy restart is required whenever any configuration file is changed).

We also recommend modifying configuration files when Hudiy is turned off - this will help avoid potential overwrites.
