Base Stations Not Detected?

[xPanda]

My Base Station 2.0 won't detect, they used to work fine however now they won't work. Is this happening to anyone else after the new SteamVR update? I'm using the Valve Index

I guess you have checked so they are not flashing red?

There's no LED being emitted whatsoever, I unplugged them and replugged them in to the wall, not sure what's going on. Hopefully less of a technical issue and more of a "I moved my computer and it wiggled loose issue" going on here

Fixed - For some reason unplugging them momentarily or shutting them off and on too quick didn't allow them to power off fully I guess? I waited 10s and plugged them back in and the light is back and seems normal, if any issues persist I'll follow up; otherwise I believe it's fine now

Yes, this is expected, as it is the controllers and headset that actually does the tracking, not the base stations. They tracked devices detect the laser sweeps of the base stations, so if you remove them from the sweeps by hiding them or covering them up it acts as if the base stations are gone. It's just how this works.

Edit: Oh lul, I thought you were the same person, the icon was too similar, doh!
