5DT Glove Two Hands

[rmcconnell11]

Hey, got it working!! Played about with the setup file and the information you gave me. In the end I just needed to define the ports and add the 5dt file outside of the createcomposite, I was just defining the ports.

Although it'd be nice to do the same on the vizconnect, but it's not a major concern!

Try adding two 5dt data glove inputs in Vizconnect and save the configuration file. It's fine if only one shows a connection at this time. Close down Vizconnect and open the config file in the Vizard GUI and find the initInputs section. You'll see code for data_glove and data_glove2. In the data_glove2 section change:

__main__.PORT_5DT_USB = 0

to:

__main__.PORT_5DT_USB = 1

Then run the config file and see if both gloves connect.

Ok back to having the same/similar problem.....


So gloves work perfect on the vizsetup file. To create my virtual world I use viztracker, which then uses vizsetup.... without changing any thing if i run the script...it won't connect to the gloves

** ERROR: Failed to connect to 5DT glove on COM1

Then if I put the port definitions and glove additions into the create composite command in vizsetup, same error

** ERROR: Failed to connect to 5DT glove on COM1

So now i have tried defining the ports and adding the gloves in the main script, but for some reason it has went back to reading only one glove for both hands
