3 - Check that the headset is well recognized by the PC

On the Meta application, go to the Devices tab. A green icon will appear next to your headset if it is recognized.

If this is not the case, switch off your headset, close the Meta application (and also check that Virtual is also closed) and repeat the operations from step 2.

When “Meta Link” is activated, the environment in the headset should turn white, indicating that the headset is connected to the PC and that the PC is driving it.
