Yodeck player based on Raspberry Pi
⚠️This section is available only for players based on Raspberry Pi. For other player types, this section won’t be displayed at all. Learn about the Raspberry Pi-based Yodeck Player.
By locking down the player, the below options will be disabled on your player’s settings:
Warning!
Before locking down your player, ensure you have read the information below. Many configuration options will be disabled, and you will need physical access to the player to unlock it.
- Disabling SSH and firewall TCP Port 22 in the Security Tab.
- Disabling the VPN support connection option in the Security Tab.
- Disabling the firewall reconfiguration option in the Security Tab.
- Disabling CHANGING any Customization Script in the “Advanced Player Directives” text field.

- Disabling CHANGING all players’ Wi-Fi Wizard / Remote Support Passwords.
How to unlock the Player
When deactivating this feature, a deactivation file is produced for each device affected and emailed to the Account Admins only. The deactivation file must be written on a USB flash drive. While the player is off, you need to plug in the USB flash drive with the deactivation file on the player’s USB ports, then start the boot-up sequence for the lockdown setting to be deactivated. Reflashing the device will not do anything.
The deactivation file will be in this format (unlock_Player’s-ID_ Screen-ID ) to know which file to use on which player.
Example:
- Player’s-ID= 12345
- Screen-ID= abc1234
The unlock file that will be produced upon disabling the Lock-Down feature on that player will be named:
- unlock_12345_ abc1234
