How to troubleshoot VisionHUB connection issues?

1. Check the Status Indicator light on the VisionHUB

  • The VisionHUB should have a solid blue Status Indicator light while plugged in and not in use.
    • If the Status Indicator light is OFF, then it is not recognized by the computer.
      • Unplug the VisionHUB from the USB port, wait 20 seconds, then plug it into a different USB port.
        • It is important to plug into a different USB port as this forces the computer to re-enumerate the system HUB.
        • If you are using a USB extender or USB hub, try plugging the VisionHUB directly into the computer.
      • If the Status Indicator light does not turn ON with any USB ports, plug the VisionHUB into a different computer.
        • If the light does not turn on with a different computer, or is slowly phasing blue, call Technical Support at 1-800-969-6961 opt 2 (within US) 206-448-3464 opt 2 (International).

2. Check to see if the VisionHUB is recognized in the MyoVision software

  • Look in the lower left-hand corner of the MyoVision software. Under "Connected and available system HUB:" "VisionHUB" should be listed in green
