• D-BOX has a comprehensive library of HaptiCode tracks for you to discover (or re-discover) with immersive
haptic effects.
• The complete list of compatible titles can be found in the D-BOX HaptiSync subscription details on your D-
BOX Connect account. The list is also available on the D-BOX website and is updated regularly.
• To enjoy the ultimate viewing experience, first pick a compatible title.
• Next, start playing the title from your favourite source (disc, streaming, video-on-demand, etc.) and make
sure that the sound level is comfortable.
• Using its integrated sound sensor (microphone), your HaptiSync Hub will automatically recognize any
compatible title in less than 1 minute (when played from the beginning) and then start playing the
corresponding HaptiCode track in your Haptic Seat.
• After a title is recognized, you can pause, rewind or skip ahead, and the immersive experience will resume
within a few seconds.
6. Calibrate your Sound System (optional)
• D-BOX’s unique and patented HaptiSync technology can accurately synchronize a haptic experience with
your movie better than human perception.
• Your D-BOX HaptiSync Hub is factory calibrated for most common uses, such as using its sound sensor
(microphone) within 3 metres (10 ft.) of your viewing location.
• However, external factors may influence synchronization delays, such as:
- Using an Audio Line-in signal with audio processors.
- Distance and sound transmission delays through the air.
- Mixing wireless and wired sound paths.
• Follow these steps to adjust (or verify) the optimal calibration delay between your sound system and your
HaptiSync Hub:
• Find the D-BOX Haptic Experience channel on YouTube.
• Play the Calibration video through the sound system that you want to calibrate.
• Open the HaptiSync App and find the calibration delay slider.
• Follow the on-screen video instructions to adjust your optimal calibration value.
o Note a value where a haptic pulse is perceived slightly before a sound pulse.
o Note a value where a haptic pulse is perceived slightly after a sound pulse.
o Use the value in between (the average) for final calibration.
o If you don’t perceive any difference, leave the calibration value at 0.
3. HAPTISYNC HUB
Being the heart of your Haptic System, the HaptiSync Hub features an integrated sound sensor capable of synchronizing your
