The kit came with some black sheathing to clean up those wires, once I have everything set up and working properly I will clean them up.

Looks good Don,
Let me know how the mount works out, your the test subject for Varjo mounting.

You can cut the braided cable sleeve to what ever length you need and them trim the ends with the enclose heat shrink tubing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can also fold up the wire in then put the sleeve on to keep things tidy.

Thanks much Miles! Woohoo the curtain my wife found worked out a peach. Have just completed setting targets and 5 point calibration, all good to go now! Now just got to get out of habit of moving my head to move cursor and use my hands lol.

You make me sad USPS...

Yea, I think the new USPS bulk scan form got fubar. I tried to tell them when I dropped the last batch off but they were not interested. I am doing another run tomorrow and I will inquire about yours and a few others.

Sorry for the delay,

I am getting more and more acclimated to these things. Definitely freeing up some buttons on HOTAS. Ain't nothing quite like fingering that beautiful Hornet cockpit in VR.

If you have any windows in your play area better make sure you cover them up good with something really dark. Point Control is very sensitive to any IR light source.

All you have to do is power on the device and move it around the room, red light will light up from any IR.

How sensitive is to the vive base stations?

Don't know. I have Index base stations and no issue there at all, if Vive uses same source for tracking should not be issue.

I think they are the same base stations, I use them for the pimax.

Then perfect!

Just DM me the email address the invoice went to, and I will update and resend the invoice link before you pay.

Thanks

I gotta say after using Point Control for the last few days I am so hooked on this now. What an awesome device! You guys that are still on the wait list for your turn to order - it is well worth the wait I will tell you!! Many thanks Miles for developing and offering this to the community along with your awesome support !

I hope Someone from PointCTRL is reading here. I can not open the invoice in my PayPal account. I’ve received a message that the invoice is here but it won’t let me open. Any advices?

 

cheers

I'm slow to get going, lotta chores for a guy who's on Spring Break...

 

Questions bout charging: What color LED indicates fully charged? I saw on the website it was red (guessing that's out dated info). Mine is a bright blue currently.

Is the magnetic cable the only method of charging the FCU's, or is the port (an adapter) plugged into a micro USB (removable for micro USB cable charging)?

Also, my PC doesn't immediately recognize the HMS when I plug it in, do I need to turn it on somehow?
