Getting Started on HTC VIVE
Learn how to set up Campfire for VIVE Focus Vision (via PC VR Streaming) and VIVE Pro 2.
Before you begin, please make sure you have the VIVE Wired Steaming Cable and a compatible PC.
VIVE Focus Vision
- If you have a new device, please first set up your VIVE Focus Vision device
- Install VIVE Hub for Windows
- On your PC in the VIVE Hub app, toggle MR with passthrough to on (not available in DisplayPort mode)
Settings -> VIVE Streaming -> Graphics -> MR with passthrough
- Install Steam VR. Note that you will have to install Steam first (requires a Steam login) and then the SteamVR app.
- Start a VIVE Streaming session
- Turn your headset ON and connect it using the VIVE Wired Streaming cable to the PC via USB-C 3/4 without DP Mode. Note that using it with a Thunderbolt port or USB-C port with DP Mode will disable passthrough.
- On your headset, you will see a menu to Choose USB Mode. Select the VIVE Streaming option. It’s the second option and although it may be greyed out, you can still select it by pointing and clicking on it using a controller.
