The 4 Key Points for Optimal Use of Omnicast VR
Master the 4 crucial steps for Omnicast VR: Developer Mode setup, sleep mode management, single WiFi network, and initial wired connection. Optimize your streaming sessions.
The 4 Key Points for Optimal Use of Omnicast VR
To ensure the headset streaming functionality works correctly, you must adhere to several rules that will optimize your sessions.
Part 1: Prepare Your VR Headsets
1. Enable Developer Settings
Your headsets must be in Developer Mode with USB Debugging enabled.
Here are some articles to activate Developer Mode on Meta Quest headsets:
2. Adjust Headset Sleep Modes
In your VR headset, go to Settings / Power and do the following:
• Set Headset Sleep to 4 hours: This prevents your headset from displaying a black screen during streaming.
• Set Auto Sleep Mode to 4 hours: Sleep mode will power off the headset and disconnect your ADB Wi-Fi connection.
Part 2: Connection Preparation Between the Software and Headsets
1. Verify Network Configuration
The software and the headsets must be on the same Wi-Fi network (Internet and/or local).
If this is not the case, the headsets and the software cannot communicate, and the software cannot act as a remote control.
Note: If the headsets and the software are not on the same network, you will not see any headset appear when you insert the USB cable for your initial connection.
This is the main reason your headsets may not appear in the software.
2. Initial Wired Connection
At the start of the session, connect your headset via cable to your PC/Tablet where the software is located.
Only use USB cables that support both data and charging (the one supplied with your headset and/or equivalent).
Remember the very first time to validate the access notification in the headset: check "Always allow"; otherwise, the prompt will appear every time.
Part 3: Confirming Your System is Ready to Operate
Once these key points are configured, the software must:
• Display your headsets in the "Launch & Stream" tab.
• Display the status "Ready to Stream" in green.
You can then begin the control and supervision of your session!
