is there any way to read the current gpio status on startup.

The GPIO Event only triggers if the status change from switch On to off or vice versa.

    You can add a variable to presentation (File > Presentation Properties > Variables), and update a value of variable when GPIO event is triggered.

    Double click on GPIO event.

    If "GPIO Up" option is selected, go to Advanced > Add Command > Other > Set Variable > select variable > specify a value (for example "UP").

    Do the same with "GPIO Down" event, but in this case specify a value "DOWN".

    Publish presentation.

    Then you can access the BrightSign's variable page from a web browser http://unit_ip_address:8008 and see a current value of variable which will correspond to GPIO status.

    Thanks, but that won't solve the problem. I have a sensor logic for an interactive book (projection on paper), that delivers 3 status depending to the opened page (GPIO 0,1 and 3). When exhibition shuts down at evening and somebody left the book on e.g. page 2 next day on startup bright sign should show page 2.

    But GPIO only triggers if somebody would flip a page. I solved the problem by activate the sensor modules via gpio on startup, so the right event will trigger on startup.
