User Manual

Toggled hotkeys are enabled by a single key press and disabled by a second key
press. Non-toggled hotkeys require the key to be held down for the hotkey to be
enabled and released for the hotkey to be disabled.
Trap Checkbox
Trapped hotkeys will not be available to any other programs. Untrapped hotkeys
will still perform the hotkey function within the TrackIR software, but can also be
simultaneously used in other software that is running alongside TrackIR.
Note : Hotkey settings are stored on a per-profile basis.
Axis Checkboxes
Check to enable head tracking for each particular axis. Uncheck to disable.
TrueView
TrueView takes virtual rotation (yaw, pitch, roll) into account when applying physical
translation (x, y, z) movements. This allows you to turn your head to one side, lean
toward the monitor, and have your in-game view zoom in the direction you are virtually
facing. Disabling TrueView results in physical translation superseding virtual rotation, so
that moving toward the monitor physically always moves the in-game view straight
ahead, making it impossible to zoom in any direction other than straight ahead.
5.8.1.3 Motion Curves
Each axis can be adjusted to have a faster or slower response to your actual head
movement. The TrackIR software uses motion curves to amplify your real head
movement, allowing complete control of the in-game view with varying degrees of head
movement. Changing the motion curve for an axis allows you to fine-tune the amount of
head movement used to control your view. It can also be used to create a dead zone,
which helps negate small, unintentional head movements when the view is centered.
Select Axis for Editing
Select the desired axis for editing from the Axis dropdown. Once selected, the current
motion curve will appear in the preview window below.
Using Control Points for Curve Editing
The control points on the graph allow you to change the shape of the curve by clicking
and dragging the points. You can manually enter values or fine tune with the arrow keys
in the adjustment boxes above the curve.
The X value of a control point represents where your head is in actual 3D space. So, a
control point with an X value of 15 would represent actual head movement of 15 degrees
(rotational) or 15 cm (translational).
