6 Interaction devices
On/off button Pressing the small black button next to the configuration dial activates or
deactivates the target (please refer to figure 6.13 on page 85). After turning on the hand
target unit, the status LEDs light up according to table 6.5 on page 85. When deactivat-
ing the hand target all IR LEDs are switched off and the microcontroller is put into sleep
mode. Therefore a certain minimal power consumption is inevitable.
When the Standard Fingertracking is not used for a longer period of
time (i.e. more than a week) the batteries should be removed from the
hand target to prevent deep discharge which could destroy the battery.
Configuration dial The configuration dial is used to select the LED brightness and the
number of fingers used in the setup (please refer to figure 6.13 on page 85).
A detailed description of the configuration dial may be found in table 6.6 on page 86.

Table 6.6: Description of the configuration dial (Standard Fingertracking)
Note For serial numbers < 100 the LED brightness and the number of flash groups is
configured differently:
• positions 0 to 3: one syncgroup
• position 4 to 7: three syncgroups
• position 8 to 9: unused
Connecting the finger thimble set with the hand target Just plug in the connector of
the finger thimble sets into the hand target as shown in figure 6.14 on page 87.
Then apply the finger thimbles to your thumb and fingers observing the order of the flexi-
ble wires shown in figure 6.14 on page 87.
