as the ceiling, fans or lights.
·
Check the area for things that could
make you trip or slip.
·
Be sure there is nothing dangerous (for
example, sharp objects, balconies, stairs
or other places you could fall) next to
the play area, in case you accidentally
leave the area during use.
·
Place Base Stations and their power
cords outside the play area, far enough
that a player will not strike them. The
Base Stations are precision electronic
devices and drops, bumps or other
contact may negatively affect perfor-
mance.
·
Set up your Base Stations near electrical
outlets and at opposite corners of your
space, diagonally and as described in
the Setup Guide.
·
Use the included Base Station mounting
kit to mount them on a wall, light stand,
cargo pole or tripod, or to set them on a
stable surface.
·
Use only the Base Station power supply
provided with the Base Station. The
power supply has a unique adapter
designed to fit in the Base Station. Other
power supplies that are not designed
to work with the Base Station may pose
an electrical or fire hazard. If you need
a replacement power supply, contact
Valve.
·
Avoid areas with bright light, which
might degrade the performance of the
Base Stations.
·
Take precautions to keep pets and
children away.
·
Set up and understand the Chaperone
boundaries (see below).
SET UP AND UNDERSTAND THE
CHAPERONE™ FUNCTION.
Once you download SteamVR (at steamvr.
steampowered.com), you will have access
to instructions about the setup of your play
area and “Chaperone.” Chaperone is tech-
nology that indicates the boundaries of your
play area. On its default setting, Chaperone
displays a grid pattern when you approach
a boundary. Chaperone only indicates the
boundaries you designate – it does not
identify physical objects in the play area,
such as a table or a pet, and does not show
floor, ceilings, or overhead obstacles. If you
move the Base Stations, even accidentally,
you will need to set the boundaries again.
Chaperone may not display a boundary
soon enough if you are moving quickly (for
example, running or lunging suddenly). It is
not a substitute for planning a safe play area
or using a spotter.
The default Chaperone setting provides the
most visible boundaries, but when wearing
the Headset, you can customize the Chaper-
one settings (accessed in VR by pressing the
System button on your Controller) to accom-
modate different VR experiences. When
you change VR experiences or hand off to
another player, be sure that the settings
are appropriate for the use. Familiarize new
players with Chaperone and its settings.
PREPARE TO PLAY
