cate Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 As described in this video. See the description of the video for more details. This is a very odd issue, though thankfully the fan does work, meaning this is a solvable problem and likely some simple software thing. The connection is from headset to fan: USB-c male to USB-c female > USB-c male to USB female > USB male (fan). I am using steamVR 1.16.8, and am using 1.0.14.1 BETA of the VIVE console The headset was updated just today via steamVR. It seems this update was shipped today. The fan works flawlessly - the issue is somewhere with the headset/software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the usb-c headset port is disabled when using the wireless adapter. I believe this is the same with Cosmos and VivePro. https://www.vive.com/au/support/wireless-adapter-cosmos/category_howto/cant-detect-usb-device-on-vive-cosmos-.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HackPerception Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 The USB-C port works with wireless adapter but there's a limit to how much current you can draw with that port since the device because the battery can only supply so many amps overall. It may be getting overdrawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be getting overdrawn. I'm pretty sure it's a power limiting thing but why does the latest Vive Support pages say that the headset usb-c is disabled using wireless? Maybe this link needs to be revised? https://www.vive.com/au/support/wireless-adapter-cosmos/category_howto/cant-detect-usb-device-on-vive-cosmos-.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
