(Optional) Activating VNC Consider this if you want to run TranscriptOMatic without a display hooked up to the device. VNC allows you to access the Raspberry Pi desktop remotely from another computer. Log into your Raspberry Pi — either via  ssh or via GUI, if you have a monitor (and keyboard) connected. On the GUI, open a terminal. Start raspi-config: sudo raspi-config Go to  3 Interface Options Go to I3 VNC Choose Yes Leave raspi-config
