FMS OffSeason Setup for Week 0 Events

I've been testing with FMS OffSeason and have been having a difficult time figuring out a flexible way to have a controlled FMS system.

I already have a router and DS programmer setup, and they're working properly. I'm trying to stick as close as possible to normal FRC. Teams program their DS's with FMS-lite mode in the radio configurator. Teams take their driver station computer, hook up ethernet, FMS admin (me) confirms all teams are connected, then starts the round.

The problem I'm having is that Chezy Arena is outdated for this year. The new DNS system makes the process very inconvenient, and I couldn't get it to work properly.

FMS Offseason connects properly to driver stations and displays 'FMS connected', however I don't see any flexible way to enter in team numbers and start a match.

I have tried using 'Match Test', and have gotten the robots working properly, however Match Test will only go through the round with Autonomous Disabled and Teleop Disabled. It will not actually give you control of the robot.

Is there any way to make FMS Offseason work without setting up a non-flexible schedule system?

Thank you.
