Connecting a USB device to VIVE Cosmos
You can connect a compatible USB Type-C device to
VIVE Cosmos using a USB cable.

While holding the visor with one hand, pull up the band.
-
Detach the face cushion frame from the headset. To release the frame from its latches, gently pull on any side of the frame starting from the bottom, and then pull one side at a time on the top.
Important: Avoid pulling or squeezing on the sides of the face cushion frame to prevent damaging the frame. -
Insert the cable connector of the device into the USB Type-C port on the headset.
-
Align and push the tabs on the face cushion frame into their corresponding slots on the headset. Make sure to position the ridge of the face cushion frame below the headset, audio, and USB cables. You'll hear a click when the face cushion frame locks in place.
- Connect the other end of the USB cable to USB Type-C device.
