  4. Turn on Sensor Unit 1 and wait for it to beep. Remove caps.
  5. Turn on Sensor Unit 2 (when used) and wait for it to beep. Remove caps. If sensor unit 2 is not used, don’t turn it on.

  7. Start First Principles and load your First Principles experiment. The used units will beep.

Manuals

  • Optotrak Application Programmers Interface Guide. Usefull when you are creating your own software that communicates with the Optotrak System. We advise however to use First Principles to record your data and communicate with First Principles by using the RTC3D Protocol that is descibed in the link below this one. Media:Optotrak_Application_Programmers_Interface_Guide(IL-1070086).pdf
  • Delphi Component that implements an RTC3D client that can connect to First Principles. Written by Hubert Voogd. Can also be used as a source base to write code in other languages. Media:ClientSocketsPackage.zip
