Greedings all! This is my first post regarding a strange issue my trackir came up with. It used to work perfectly but yesterday would't start working. It had four red lights open and corrapted movement.After some seconds the green light went to orange and that was it. I changed the usb i reistalled it but the same thing all the times! Suddenly it worked again but before i run the programm the blue light comes on and off like before but after i close the programm the green lights does that job!! A very fade green light comes on and off instead of blue! Anyone familiar with this?
Thank you very much!
TrackIr strange issue!
Re: TrackIr strange issue!
Not sure what all is going on. The orange LED indicated that the software was pausing (F9 key by default), and the green LED indicates that it is tracking an object.
What version of Windows are you running?
Have you tried the device on another system?
Are you plugging in directly to the system, or are you using a hub?
Have you tried isolating the device on the USB ports?
Have you tried turn off any kind of power save feature for your USB ports?
In the "Device Manager" you can right click the "USB Root Hub"(s), that show, and then select properties. On the power management tab, uncheck the box that allows the computer to turn off the USB port to save power (i.e. uncheck the box). Sometimes that has an impact on the connectivity of the devices.

I am on win xp sp3 and didn't have any kind of problems before.This is a new installation of win xp and i decided to use the newest ver of trackir drivers.Might that be the fault?I have done everything you said before except the power save.I ll do that and let you know!
