Eobody2HF / Quick Start

III. Quick start

Connect the receiver to your computer

Connect the receiver to your computer with the USB mini cable

(or to any USB hub connected to your computer).

You do not need any MIDI interface.

Your Eobody2 HF will be recognized as a new audio device

for PC, as

Eobody2 MIDI interface with Mac. When right connected, the receiver LED turns green.

Two or more Eobody2 HF can be connected directly to the USB inputs of your computer, but they can also be connected

via a USB hub. When more than one Eobody2 HF are connected, they will appear like different audio peripherical with

PCs, different Eobody2 HF MIDI interface with Mac. In this case, you will be able to rename your Eobody2 with different

names. When the units have been named, their given name will appear. (See Global Parameters Section). Theorically, 16

receivers may be active in the same area, but this number may be reduced depending on the area radio perturbation...

Connect a sensor to the transmitter

Eowave sensors compatible with the Eobody2HF wireless interface have a thin 3 pins connector. To connect a sensor to
the transmitter, just plug the 3 pins connector in one of the male 3 pins connector from the transmitter. Sensors like ac-
celerometers need 2 inputs. (See sensor technical datasheets).

Check transmission

Try a sensor. When acting a sensor, the receiver LED blinks red. It means that the receiver is receiving the datae.

On Windows (here the French version on XP),

your eobody2 should appear as an audio device

in the audio /video & game device window.

On OSX it's even easier, eobody2 should

appear in the audio & midi configuration

panel.

Respect the sensor polarity

Note that this is highly recommanded to connect the sensors to the transmitter
before starting your sequencer software. Unplugging sensors while using your
sequencer software may cause breaks during the usb data transmission which
could lead you to restart your software.
