ModeHeadless remote access
HD

No monitor required

Configure a virtual display path so WakeDesk can operate even when HDMI is not connected.

NET

Network-first setup

Prepare nodes for Ethernet or Wi-Fi customer sites with SSH available for controlled maintenance.

LIC

Account activation

Each WakeOS node registers against a customer license and counts toward the allowed host limit.

For managed Raspberry Pi fleets

Use WakeOS where you want a predictable appliance-style system instead of a general-purpose desktop image.

Hotels and sites

Maintain remote Pi hosts at customer locations without exposing server details.

Field recovery

Use account-based licensing and backups to recover host cards after reinstall or SD-card replacement.
