      2
      To add a new output, select the green "+"
      information ordinal icon
      RTTrPL is already set up as a default output. Only RTTrPM outputs can be added.
      3
      Fill out the corresponding fields to add outputs for RTTrPM. The NIC field will automatically adjust based on the selected output type.
      alert ordinal icon
      The "Address" field is for the IP Address that will receive the output data. If "Communication" -> "Multicast" is selected, this field will autofill with a Multicast IP Address. Ensure the receiving device has an IP Address compatible with the designated IP. The NIC IP Address can be changed to match the network of the receiving device by navigating to "Network Adapters" on the server.
      4
      Once all information is entered, select "Apply".
      5
      After adding the output, RTTrPM will start outputting when tracking begins.
      information ordinal icon
      If the Status shows "Disconnected", Blacktrax cannot connect to the specified output IP Address. If the Status indicates "Not Receiving Motion", Blacktrax is connected but waiting to receive motion data.
      6
      On the left side, outputs can be enabled or disabled. It is also possible to enable/disable all Lighting or Motion outputs.
      information ordinal icon
      Note: A BT-1 server only allows one output to be enabled at a time.

      When sending RTTrPM data to a third-party program, please consult the Blacktrax Wiki for Output Configuration Settings for the program you are using. This can be found at: <https://wiki.blacktrax.ca/tiki-index.php?page=Output+Configuration+Settings+for+Third+Parties&structure=BlackTrax+GUI> For issues with Blacktrax, contact [email protected].\ For issues with the software integration, reach out to the respective support channels.

      Some software integrations require the data to be sent in a specific format. Navigate to "Edit Output" -&gt; "Advanced Settings" to adjust the coordinate system, orientation system, and other settings that relate to the data format. As before, consult the Blacktrax Wiki for guidance on these settings.
      8
      It is possible to select specific Trackables or Beacons to output. Click and drag to choose the desired Trackables, then select "Enable Selected".
      9
      Under "Output Options", adjustments can be made to the "Smoothing" of the tracking data.
      10
      Some software integrations do not receive Trackable data. If only Beacon data is needed, deselect "Send Trackables".
      information ordinal icon
      Mini Beacons and Rigid/Soft Frames data can also be sent if required. When sending Beacon data, the "Smoothing" option cannot be adjusted.
      11
      Some software integrations only use specific modules of the RTTrPM protocol. The Wiki provides a list of which modules to send depending on the software integration. These can be set in the Output Modules tab.
