Verifying your setup
Once you've completed the VIVE setup process, you can now put on the headset and hold the
controllers to start exploring VR.
While you're in the play area, the headset and the controllers should remain at least 0.5 m (1 ft 7
in) and no further than 5 m (16 ft 4 in) away from a base station. This will ensure that the devices
are properly tracked within the base station’s 120-degree field of view.
For health and safety warnings, please refer to the Safety and regulatory guide, which is
periodically updated for accuracy and completeness. For the latest version, check
www.vive.com/.
After setting up, how do I turn the VIVE system on?
1. From your computer, open the SteamVR app.
2. Make sure your base stations are powered.
3. Make sure that your headset is connected to the computer via the link box. For details, see
Connecting the headset to your computer on page 23.
4. Turn the controllers on.
5. Check that VIVE hardware is tracked. The status icons on the SteamVR app and the status
lights on the hardware should all be green.
6. Put the headset on. For details, see Putting on the VIVE Pro HMD on page 8.
7. Grab your controllers.
To bring up the System Dashboard, press the System button on either controller.
