The Raspberry Pi can be used to collect data from Kegtron and send it to Bar Helper. Here we will go through how this is set up.
Download Image for Raspberry Pi here.
Burn this in the usual way, for example by the use of balenaEtcher, this can be downloaded .
You must have a memory card that is at least 16GB in size.
Connect the mouse, keyboard and monitor to the Raspberry Pi and launch it.
Once it has booted up, you need to connect the WiFi. To do this, tap the WiFi icon at the top right corner of the screen and connect the Raspberry Pi to your WiFi network.
Tap the internet icon at the top left of the Raspberry Pi desktop. It's a picture of a globe.
The page that now starts has two tabs. Kegtron App in the first Tab and Bar Helper in the other. Go to tab number two and log in to Bar Helper.
Go to Settings -> Bar settings and press GENERATE API KEY
Copy the key and go to the first tab in the browser.
Paste the key you copied on the previous page into the Api text box.
Press the Start button. You will now see that the Kegtrons appear in the list below.
