Placing The Clip
The spring steel clip will fit on any baseball cap, but was designed specifically for NaturalPoint’s TrackHAT.
The reflectors on the clip should face the same direction that your head is facing (ie, towards the computer screen).
To apply the clip, squeeze the front 2 feet, slip onto hat brim, and let go. The front two feet should be under the brim, while the central bar to to the raised reflector should be on top of the brim (see illustration at right).
Placing The TrackIR 3 (or 3-Pro)
For the best performance, make sure your TrackIR is at roughly the same level as the spring steel clip when using your computer (it is best to have the camera directly in front of the hat, not off to one side).
The TrackIR can be about 1 foot above or below the level of the Vector Clip, and still work fine. The ideal distance from the Vector clip to TrackIR is between 2 and 4 feet. This gives the TrackIR camera enough room to see the whole Vector clip as you move your head.
If you find yourself moving outside of the TrackIR camera's field of view a lot, you will want to adjust your profile to be more sensitive (so less movement will be enough to fully control your in-game view). Check the "Tracking Window" in the software to see what TrackIR sees through it's built-in camera.
