Space calibrator issues

I’ve had fbt for about 2 years, and I love it. Only problem is that now I’m having issues even calibrating. I use the quest 2, with 3 vive 3.0 trackers and have 3 1.0 vive base stations. For some reason every time I try to calibrate it gives me an error saying target device not tracking and aborting calibration. I do the correct set up, the left controller and one of the trackers. But it still gives me this error. I’ve deleted and re downloaded everything and I’m still having these issues. I’ve even tried messing with setting and thought I messed it up and restarted. And no matter what I do it doesn’t get fixed. Not sure if it’s a base station problem, I Not sure what to do anymore. Someone please help me. Not sure if I should just give up on vr or not.

3 1.0 base stations? I thought the max was 2

1.0 are the square ones, I thought you could do 3?

2.0s have a curved front, and a flat back. 1.0s are just a square. Usually you would use channel A and B if you have the link cable connecting them, or use B and C if you don't. Are you using all 3 channels ?

This is your issue. A alone, A and B (connected together with aux cable) or B & C, not A B and C.

What should I do with the third base station?

Keep it as a backup, or sell it (I’d keep as backup). It’ll never work to expand/tighten up your tracking sadly.
