Both the FAQ and the manual appear to have been authored in late 2007, but Im just wondering which one is better, if either? Which plan did you follow, if any? Do you just have to arrange the LEDs assymetrically and thats it? Edited by Incisal on 05/03/2009 at 01h38.

Class : Apprenti Posts : 8 Registered on : 27/02/2009 Off line	So thats 3 different set of proportions to randomly choose from haha, and all from official sources. It looks like Ill be better off winging it. Thanks for the replies EDIT: Actually after looking at FreeTrack v2.2.0.279, the default values are (from top to bottom) 30 40 70 80, just like my diagram on the left.

I think this will work good with freetrack, but maybe it is power controlled by the real Track-IR software? Who can confirm that it is working? Edited by benmeijer on 20/02/2010 at 13h01.
