Setting VIVE Ultimate Tracker to Wi-Fi LBE mode

Here's how to set your VIVE Ultimate Tracker to Wi-Fi LBE mode.
Important: Before setting up, make sure you have:
  • The required device software and app versions. See Required device software and app versions for LBE mode.
  • Subscribed your organization to the Pro or Ultimate (or trial) tier.
  • Enrolled your VIVE Ultimate Tracker. See Enrolling VIVE Ultimate Tracker via USB.
  • Installed VIVE Hub on another computer. The computer must be different from the one where VIVE Business+ console is installed. You can download VIVE Hub here.

    If the computer has VIVE Business Streaming console installed, uninstall it first before installing VIVE Hub.

  1. In the VIVE Business+ console, go to Batch configuration and click the Headset tab.
  2. Click Create in the upper right.
  3. Enter a Name for the batch configuration file and select Wi-Fi LBE for Connection & Tracking Mode. Then click Add.
  4. Import the batch configuration package that you've just created to the headset. See Importing maps and batch configuration packages to headsets.
    Important: Make sure the headset is enrolled to VIVE Business+. See Enrolling devices or Enrolling headsets via USB.
  5. Create a map using your headset. For instructions, see the following topics:
    Important: While creating the map using VIVE Manager, you'll need to scan each section of your play area at knee-height (not shoulder-level) in step 9 of Creating a map using VIVE Manager.
  6. Export the map you've just created from the headset to VIVE Business+ console. See Exporting maps from devices.
  7. On the left panel, click Tracker server.
  8. Click Create, enter the required information, and then click Add.
    Important: For IP address, enter the IP address of the computer where VIVE Hub is installed.
  9. Connect your tracker to your computer using a USB Type-C® cable and enroll your tracker. See Enrolling VIVE Ultimate Tracker via USB.
    1. Enter a Name for your tracker.
    2. In Connection and Tracking mode, select Wi-Fi LBE.
    3. Select the Tracking options you want.
    4. In Tracker server name, select the tracker server that you've just created in step 8.
    5. In Wi-Fi connection, enter the same network settings as the ones used by the computer where VIVE Hub is installed.

      If both computers, where VIVE Business+ console and VIVE Hub are installed, are connected to Wi‍-Fi, we recommend connecting the computers and the trackers to the 5 GHz band of your Wi-Fi access point, and your headset to the 6 GHz band (if available). This ensures optimal performance when using Wi-Fi LBE mode.

  10. On your other computer, launch VIVE Hub.
  11. Go back to the computer where VIVE Business+ console is installed and check if the tracker server is online. The tracker server is online if you see a green circle next to the tracker server name.
    Important: If the IP address of the computer where VIVE Hub is installed changes, you'll need to update the tracker server and import the batch configuration package again to the tracker. See Creating a tracker server and Importing maps and batch configuration packages to trackers.
  12. Disconnect the tracker from the computer where VIVE Business+ console is installed. You'll see a Wi‍-Fi icon next to the tracker name.
  13. Import the map you've exported from the headset in step 6 to your VIVE Ultimate Tracker. See Importing maps and batch configuration packages to trackers.
    Important: Currently, when the tracker is in Wi-Fi LBE mode, importing maps is only supported when the tracker is connected wirelessly to your computer. See Connecting VIVE Ultimate Tracker wirelessly.
Important: When setting trackers (15 or less) to Wi-Fi LBE mode, use these settings for your Wi‍-Fi access point:
  • Band: 5 Ghz
  • Channel width: 40 MHz
  • Security: WPA2
If you're setting more than 15 trackers to Wi-Fi LBE mode, try connecting them to different Wi‍-Fi access points. Make sure your Wi‍-Fi access points are using different channels.
Note: Check your Wi‍-Fi router's user guide to see the maximum number of devices it can support.
