Lighthouse Switch with GUI for users who mix VR headsets with Vive wands
This takes code created here lighthouse-keeper and adds a GUI layer for ease of use.

Why can't this be added to PiTool?
I had this one working in the not too distant past: https://github.com/rossbearman/lighthouse-keeper

Introducing MixedVR Manager – automatic, reliable lighthouse control
Take a look at Lighthouse Keeper. Buddy of mine /u/tetracyclic made it (it's responsible for all lighthouse management in MixedVR Manager). The source is Python, so you could download the Python script, then package it in two bash/zsh/python scripts that just execute the "on" command or "off" command for your lighthouses.

HP Reverb G2 - Lighthouse 1.0, Virtual Builds Dongles - Trackers are permanently on
However you can do it this way yourself, either using the command line app Lighthouse Keeper, MixedVR Manager (which automates it when you turn the Index controllers on or off, along with a number of other features) or the phone app Lighthouse PM.

Can you easily switch between Index and normal WMR controllers?
For sure, and thank you for contributing to open source. Feel free to take a look at MixedVR Manager's code to see if you can contribute, or to Lighthouse-keeper's code, there's an issue I want closed before I update the new binary being used in MixedVR Manager.

Started a .NET Project to manage Lighthouse
I'm not sure quite why the library won't let you write directly, as that's what I do using Bleak which uses the .NET/UWP Bluetooth library on Windows.

Is it bad to "unplug" base station ?
I use the lighthouse keeper executable from MixedVR Manager with a bat script for starting them:

MixedVR Manager first-time setup issues (and just general SteamVR headaches)
I'm curious what you mean by MixedVR Manager is broken. After reading a lot of github it is sounding like the SteamVR room setup loop may be a bug / problem with OVR Advanced Settings...
- Is there any way to set up the Reverb G2 without doing it through Microsoft Mixed Reality?

Does choice of monitor ever affect G2?
I basically borrowed it from MixedVr Manager With ChangeScreenREsolution.exe

Poll: Who puts on their Reverb/Reverb G2 and it just works?
If you follow the setup guide to the letter - including the use of SteamVR chaperone instead of WMR bounds, you should have no issues. I manually turn power on to base stations and the HMD itself each time I play. HMD is plugged into USB-C/dport on RTX2080, no extension. Also, I do not use MixedVR Manager but do autorun a script closing Room Setup (at SteamVR launch).
-
MixedVR manager, can someone explain how to use original G2 controllers?
I am at work at the moment so can’t get you a full step-by-step, but reading the release notes should hopefully help you for now: iirc you just need to run the uninstall script and it should make everything WMR side work as default.
-
Lighthouse 2.0 controller software?
Mixed VR manager has some software that lets your computer control the base-stations. IMO, the script was too restrictive for me, but it's easy to edit.
-
Is good lighting necessary for the G2 with vive 2.0 controller tracking?
I'd recommend looking at the "Tracking" section of my vr repo: https://github.com/monstermac77/vr/#tracking, especially the last paragraph.
