Introduction
Overview
The Wrap 920 VR is a standard Wrap 920 video eyewear bundled with a Wrap VGA
Adapter and a Wrap Tracker 6TC. The addition of these accessories transforms the
Wrap 920 into a virtual reality system that empowers you to step inside virtual
worlds. Video is displayed in standard 2D or stereoscopic 3D video from a broad
range of media sources ranging from a portable media players with composite video
out, such as popular iPod® and iPhone® devices, to desktop and laptop PCs. The
included Wrap Tracker 6TC adds the all-important VR capability of enabling you to
see where you look. Turn or tilt your head and you see the virtual world in that
direction, just like in the real world.
Two Products in One
The Wrap 920 VR Bundle is two products in one.
Connect the AA Control Box and you have a versatile media player for watching
video content from media players or virtually any composite video enabled media
device. An optional rechargeable lithium ion battery pack, the Wrap PowerPak +, can
also be used in place of the AA Control Box for viewing media player content. The
Wrap PowerPak + extends video playback time and enables connection to
component video devices for improved video quality.

Replace the AA Control Box with the Wrap VGA Adapter and your video eyewear is
compatible with virtually any make or model of Windows graphics card or laptop.
An optional Wrap Lightshield further enhances the your VR experience, immersing
you fully into your VR environment.
Wrap 920
The Wrap 920 video eyewear forms the base of the Wrap 920 VR Bundle. It
provides a 67-inch virtual display, as seen from 10 feet, that is worn like a pair of
sunglasses. The Wrap 920 can be used solely as a wearable 67-in display for viewing
2D or 3D video, or when equipped with the Wrap VGA Adapter, it can connect to
virtually any Windows powered desktop or laptop personal computer.
Out of the box it supports standard 2D video and a simple selection of a 3D video
format from its OSD (On Screen Display) enables viewing any one of multiple
stereoscopic 3D video formats. Removable earphones round out this product for the
ultimate portable big-screen experience.
Wrap VGA Adapter
A standard Wrap 920 includes a universal composite audio/video cable set plus a
custom composite cable for Apple iPod touch and iPhones. Personal computers use a
different video format. The Wrap VGA Adapter not only provides the appropriate
VGA and USB connectors but also convert the video to a compatible format that
enables viewing PC generated content on the Wrap 920 video eyewear.
Out of the box the Wrap 920 output cable connects to the Wrap VGA Adapter and
it in turns connects to a VGA and USB 2.0 ports on your PC. If your PC does not
provide a VGA port, a DVI/VGA adapter (not included) can be used or a VGA
splitter (not included) can also be used for systems with only a single video port.
This connection provides 2D and 3D stereoscopic video support when connected to
virtually any make or model of Windows compatible graphics card.

Wrap Tracker 6TC
Head tracking brings applications to life, placing you right in the middle of the
action and enabling you to see where you are looking.
The Wrap Tracker 6TC is the newest and most advanced head tracker available in
the consumer market. This tiny 6 DoF (Degrees of Freedom) capable tracker plugs
into a small port on the Wrap 920 and communicates with supporting applications
through the Wrap eyewear and the VGA Adapter’s USB connection.
Vuzix VR Manager™
VR Manager is a software application that provides head tracker calibration, drivers
for 3D stereoscopic video, and VR support for a wide variety of games, simulators

Section 1
Installation & Setup

Installation Overview
The Wrap eyewear installation is divided into three stages:
1. assembling and adjusting the basic eyewear components,
2. connecting the AA Control Box for media players, connecting and
configuring a VGA computer connection, and
3. adjusting the onscreen audio/video controls.
It may sound complex but its really quite simple.
Your Wrap 920 can be connected to almost any media source by simply changing the
Control Box and its cable. For connecting to a personal computer, connect the Wrap
VGA Adapter between eyewear and computer. For all types of media players, use the
AA Control Box and the appropriate cable.
Hardware Assembly
Wrap Noise Isolating Earphones
In addition to providing great sound quality, the noise isolating Wrap earphones are
removable to enable the use of alternate speaker systems.
The earphones come with three pairs noise isolators to allow you to choose the set
that provides the best comfort and fit. The noise isolators simply slip on/off the
audio post.

To install the Wrap Earphones:
Plug an earphone into each of the audio ports on either side of the
display module. Either earphone can be used on the left or right.
To use the eyewear without the earphones:
Unplug the earphones from your Wrap eyewear and control volume
using the audio controls provided on your media source.
Wrap Tracker 6TC
Wrap video eyewear can be used with out without the Tracker installed and the
Tracker works only with supporting applications.
To install the Tracker:
Plug your Wrap Tracker 6TC into the small oblong port located between
the right temple hinge and the right earphone port on the back of the
display module.
Note: Although the Tracker connector looks much like a UBS micro-B port, it is not. Do not
attempt to connect a USB micro-B connector into this port and do not attach the Wrap
Tracker 6TC to a USB micro-B cable or device.
Nose Bridge
Your Wrap 920 nose bridge is both adjustable and replaceable. The nose bridge
stems slides in and out and its malleable wire arms, like those on standard eyeglasses,
adjust to almost any width and angle for broad fit requirements and comfort.
