I just received my TrackIR unit this morning and was wondering where to best put the tracking device as i am using two Samsung 710T TFT screens?

Do i have to put it exactly between the two monitors as this indicates the middle of the screen or somewhat offset so the unit is directly in front of my face?

Regards,

Greg.

You want the TrackIR to be placed exactly center as to where you are looking. So, if directly between the monitors is the center, you will want it there.

Another option is to put the camera behind you and rotate the camera in the software by 180 degrees.

Hmmm...

Oh yeah... forget how to do it in version 3.x but in v4, go to Tracking / Settings and then select one of the camera rotation angles.
