Guide to Troubleshooting Tracker Pro
Block the camera's view with your hand until the acquire light goes out. Remove
the reflective dot from the client
Move you hand slowly away from the tracker pro until the acquire light goes back
on.
Move left and right to determine where the faulty reflection is located. The
acquire light will go back out when your hand is in a direct line between the
Tracker pro and the object you are looking for. Examples of what you are looking
for are shiny or reflective surfaces like light bulbs, glass cabinets, mirrors
