If you look at line 535 in the vrpn.cfg file, you'll see:
#vrpn_Spaceball Spaceball0 /dev/ttyS0 9600
Uncommenting this line should instruct the VRPN server to connect to a spaceball. If you're running on a windows system, you'll probably do something like:
vrpn_Spaceball Spaceball0 COM1 9600
Unfortunately, we can't verify that this works. To test this, you should run the vrpn_print_devices utility to see if the server is working. If so, then you can test if Vizard is correctly passing through the data. Likely there'll be trouble there because the spaceball device doesn't make onto the pos/ori format of a typical 6DOF sensor device. This latter problem we can easily resolve for you. If VRPN server doesn't connect, then I'd suggest contact the manufacturer and asking for advice on connecting to a spaceball using VRPN.
Let us know how it goes.
