Index Controller (Knuckles) - Easy Working Solution!

Just updated the Index Controller Firmware, so the exact procedure is:

  1. Edit

default.vrsettings

from

“Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SteamVR\resources\settings”

and set requireHmd to false (to avoid “no hmd” error)

"requireHmd": false,

  1. make sure that

    PiService.exe
    pi_server.exe
    PiServiceLauncher.exe

are not running (from task manager - taskmgr)

  1. start SteamVR

  2. Connect Index Controller with USB (even turned off)

  3. wait for controller icon, no pairing needed, but icon MUST be the Index Controller icon and not the generic “C” icon

“i” circle means update is available, mouse over to icon and select update
