2 Problems
Posted: Thu Jun 04, 2009 1:21 pm
Alright, so I got my TrackIR 5 and track clip pro through the mail yesterday. It takes some getting used to but I can see it being very helpful in FSX and ArmA II once I get used to it.
Except problems already... *sigh*
First problem, one of the status leds (green light on the side) Just stopped working after half an hour of being plugged in and used... It's the one on the right when I look at it, facing me from the top of my monitor. Should I worry? Can I live without it? What does it mean?
Second problem, which I hope is not related to my status LED problem. My device tracks my TrackClip Pro up to like 90 even 100 degree (Raw) when I turn my head to the left. The problem is that when I turn my head to the right, and I pass 40 or 50 degrees (Raw still). It indicates that it's still tracking but it completely flips out the view bouncing all around in all of the 6DOF, I see my virtual head just moving every which way. So what's the problem? Is it related to my LED problem.
I put it so that I don't have to turn my head over 40 degrees raw to make it 180 degrees in game. But I still don't want something that's working at 80% it's capacity. Especially when I paid over $250 for it.
So what do I do? Have to return it? Or is there a solution to my problem I can fix from home? I hope there is, I don't want to have to send it back *crosses fingers*
