Setting up Vive for the first time

Before you can use Vive, you'll need to complete the setup process, which includes installing Vive
and SteamVR software, setting up the hardware, and defining your play area.
Downloading Vive Setup
To start the setup process, download the setup file on your computer from:
www.htcvive.com/setup
Run the setup file and follow the prompts to complete the process.
Setting up a room-scale play area
Choose to set up a room-scale play area to enjoy moving around and fully engage with the VR
experience.
1.
From your computer, open the SteamVR app.
2.
Click
, and then select Run Room Setup Room-scale.
3.
Review the prompts and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.
When tracing the boundaries of the play area, make sure that the floor is cleared. Do not trace
across space occupied by things (such as a table or a chair) since this may cause you to trip
into the object while in VR.
