Calibrating the device: The Phantom Omni may need to be recalibrated from time to
time, particularly if it has lost power. To calibrate the device, place the stylus in the
inkwell and start your haptically enabled application. The indicator light in the inkwell of
the Phantom Omni device will be lit a steady blue when the device is properly calibrated.

both sides and lift as shown in the image below. DO NOT lift by grasping the stylus or
arm. The stylus is detachable by design. Lifting the unit by the stylus or arm could result
in severe damage to the device.
Position hands to securely fit the device.
Lifting the stylus out of the inkwell Grasp the end of the stylus and lift UP, to
disengage, and then OUT as show below in the image on the left. Do NOT attempt to pull
the stylus straight out as shown on the right.
Be sure to lift the stylus in a two step motion.
