Configuring two Ultium receivers

If your Ultium Portable Lab contains multiple systems (e.g. an IMU and EMG system), each system must be set to a different RF Network in the Ultium settings in the Hardware Setup to avoid communication issues.

The RF Network can be set to any number, but the networks on each Ultium receiver must differ from each other.

Adding Ninox cameras

If your Ultium Portable Lab came with Ninox reference cameras, learn more about setting up your Ninox camera and synchronizing it with the Portable Lab in our Ninox Quick Start Guide.

For optimal performance, plug your Ninox cameras into the Ninox Input on the Portable Lab, shown below.

Ninox cameras are plugged into the Portable Lab via the Ninox Input.

Ninox cameras are connected to the computer via the Ninox Output (USB-C) cable.

Adding Force Plates

If your Ultium Portable Lab came with Force Plates, learn more about setting up your force plates with one of the following force plate setup guide, depending on the force plate model you use.
