I recently bought the ultimarc aimtrak and had it working within 20 minutes or so. When I wired it up to my gun then the trouble started. Cant seem to get it to calibrate the right way. Iv even tried it with the module complety outside of the gun tip. the mouse cursor is stuck to the left and will only move up and down. When I try to Calibrate the gun I can shoot the upper left and upper right corners but not the bottom. any ideas? it worked the other night seems touchy. |

I have the exact same problem...I have tried to calibrate this thing at least 60 to 70 times and had problems with it since I first fired it up starting with the calibration either not taking on the bottom or continuously cycling...I contacted them about it with several questions and I'm getting nowhere...What I got last time instead of answers was more along the lines of them being bummed out that their new software wasnt working correctly instead of the $58 lightgun PCB I ordered not working...I should have just went with a "Top Gun" but didnt want all that harware hanging off my TV...The new utility (version 1.4) has a tab so you can check the tracking signal strength of the gun module and LED board...Funny thing is this thing is installed exactly the way it shows on the website but when I aim at the screen the "red ball" tracks left when I move right and tracks up when I move the gun down and that surprised the ultimarc people...What OS are you running ? I'm on XP Pro and wonder if its an issue with that...Like you said I can only get this thing to show up on the left side of the screen and it only tracks up and down and even then its about 4" below the gun so not even accurate there...I had high hopes for this module but I'm very quickly losing my patience...They probably wont even take it back because its been installed and it'll cost like $25 to send it back to the UK...I'll probably just cut my losses and go with the TOP GUN II and leave a rare (for me) very interesting review...Good luck and let me know if you could if you get it running... |

did you assighn it as a device to the pc first? then did you update the firmware to the most current? then did you manually calibrate through the software included in the aimtrak folder? |
| redpiper1:
Yes, yes, and yes...Several times still no luck...Even tried again about 5 times but had to stop because my wife is getting pissed at me for swearing at the TV... |

I would contact andy from ultimarc if you cannot get a reply there try here by pm as he is a member here too. I have two mounted in the arcade peacemakers and just love them I had the topguns prior and act-labs and they all were junk compared to these so either it is malfunctioned or something is not setup right or something but when you do get them going you wont want anything else. |
