Lighthouse Base Stations Setup

  1. Mount the base stations diagonally at opposite corners of your space. You can also use tripods, light stands, or the ceiling when mounting the base stations, or even place it on stable book cases. Avoid using unstable mounting solutions or surfaces that are prone to vibration.

  2. Adjust the base stations so that the front panels are facing toward the center of the play area.

  3. Attach the power cables to the base stations, and then plug each of the adapter into a power outlet to turn them on.

Note

Use only the power cables and adapters that came with your base stations.

Depending on the variant of your hardware, the status lights should be white or green.

Danger

Once turned on, do not move or adjust the angles of the base stations as it could disrupt the tracking process. Otherwise, you will need to set up the lighthouse universe again and redo the referential.

To maximize your tracking area, set up above head height (ideally more than 2 m or 6.5 ft from the floor), with the angle of each base station adjusted between 25 and 35 degrees. Rotate the angle of the base stations left or right to fine tune and fully cover the tracking area.

Each base station in the same play area will need to be set on a different channel. This will be handled by EZtrack automatically.
