The Polaris Vicra System will begin a diagnostic evaluation. During this evaluation, the LEDs on
the Position Sensor will flash. When the diagnostic evaluation is complete, the Position Sensor will
emit two tones and the power LED on the Position Sensor will light.
Note
The Position Sensor initially communicates to the host computer at 9600 baud. If you are using the NDI ToolBox
application it will increase the baud rate as high as possible. If you are using your own application, the baud rate
can be set using the "COMM" API command. Refer to the "Polaris Application Program Interface Guide".

Installing the Software
The NDI software is located on the Polaris Vicra CD. You can also download the software from the
NDI Support Site at
http://support.ndigital.com.
Note
The Polaris Vicra CD does not contain NDI 6D Architect. That software application is located on the CD that
accompanies the developer kit.
NDI Combined API Sample
To install NDI Combined API Sample, copy the contents of the "CombinedAPISample" folder from
the Polaris Vicra CD onto the host computer.
