Pimax Crystal Light - IPD offset

By the way - are you sure that the 33.6 number you got wasn't one eye?  It should give you:

The measured IPD (Far)

The measured IPD Left Eye and Right Eye (again Far) separately

The calculated IPD (Near)

I just measured again and here's the reading:

Far PD

65.0

Right PD           Left PD

31.9                     32.8

Near PD

62.5

I must have read it wrong earlier or a rescan was needed.  Either way, 'Far PD' or 'Near PD' setting is the question concerning what you tune the headset to.🤔

What I do is start at Far (in your case 65.0) and then, usually in a VR cockpit, I use the IPD wheel to try it a bit lower or a bit higher (I usually find winding lower is the way to go but that might be just me and my equipment).  After each adjustment, I look at a few gauges to see if the view is more comfortable or less comfortable to view.

I did this over a few days until I was sure that the settings I was most comfortable with were at a consistent value.

Which reminds me of a question - is there anyway of knowing what the headset IPD setting is without turning the wheel?  Because I find that it takes a couple of adjustments of the wheel before the IPD display actually shows...by which time it's already moved!  Have I forgotten anything or missed anything?

Great question, Calvin-Pimax any ideas?🤔

I think that's why I was confused that I thought I'd seen it before.  I've upgraded to the latest version of Pimax Play - is there something I've missed?

Hmm, it's 7:54 PM in Malaysia, and I don't have any devices with me. I'll leave a note for the developer to double-check whether this setting was removed or if it was a bug.
