  • Hey there! Sorry for not uploading in a HUGE while, I've just been busy with school and quite honestly have been neglecting the channel... but hey, I'm back!!!
    Also..
    tell no one, but I made a different channel dedicated to gaming only
    I'm doing this because I'm slowly realizing how messy this channel is, and having my gaming content separate from my tech videos would make the most sense
    Go subscribe if you want! :O
    There's not much on there yet so..

    Amzing video, Eric. Many thanks for sharing! There's such a lack of proper support for this, as we all know. Bleeding edge tech held back by companies that don't stand behind their products.

    One of my lighthouses died and I need to fix it or trying to figure out how to fix it. This video is being very helpful hopefully it won't get me back up and running. How did you determine which one needed replacement? I know you were looking at it through the camera lens but I don't know how you concluded which one.

    What if the error is with the rotor supposedly but both are spinning? Ah probably wont read it two years after this vid.

    Ok so my X-axis motor was spinning for 1 minute and it would do this stutter spin, but it's fully capable of spinning up at full speed an holding; after hours of reading and viewing you video I ID the issue as a loose laser module cable even though i looked fully seated from factory; for experimentation sake I swapped the laser, BAM it's working fine now, nice vid; i only wish you showed exactly how you detached the laser cable off the PCB, a bit nerve recking to pray it off; i had much less issue with the ribbon cable, that came off without a tool

    Near the end-middle of the video where you set the modes, yeah mode C has never worked for me, I always keep it on A-B, when putting mine on C I get a purple light for the indication light

      if you put one base station on C and the other on B they should connect wirelessly

      @@bobabooye5691 Ohhh okay, I see how it works now. I've never actually used the C mode because I just use both base stations for infrared light for my quest 2, due to me only having one controller for my Vive and because 1 has a broken vertical laser

      It depends on whether you are using the sync-cable or not. With the cable is A-B. Without it is B-C. (or vice versa).

      They make a buzzing sound when the lenses are starting to come loose and they rub against the plastic face. If the lens comes all the way out of the rotor it could knock around in there.

    Hi
    Thank you for the video
    Any ideas on why my base station goes green light for a second and then keeps flashing red?
    How can I fix that?
    Any help on pointing me to the right direction will be deeply appreciated

    • @Eric-ks4em
      @Eric-ks4em  Год назад +2

      Generally a flashing red light means hardware failure
      It could be either one of the motors have gone bad or one of the laser diodes have gone bad
