The STAR 1200XLD provides an On Screen Display (OSD) for adjusting its display and audio 
configuration.  The  volume  and  OSD  options  are  managed  through  the  four  buttons  on  the 
eyewear’s Controller. 

The  Controller  contains  a  rechargeable  lithium  ion  battery,  charged  by  connecting  a  USB 
charger, plugged into a wall outlet or computer port with an output of not less than 2.5W. 

Tip: 

Charging a fully depleted Controller can take up to 11 hours at 2.5W. A 5W charger will reduce 
this time significantly. 

 

Use  the  provided  USB  charger  for  the  shortest  charge  time.  Its  available  power  is  divided 
among it four ports. Use only one port to minimize the charge time. 

The Vuzix icon will flash while the Controller is charging. Allow it to fully charge before using 
your STAR eyewear for the first time. 

 

 

 

Power & Menu 

Powers up the video eyewear and enables its on-screen display menu (OSD). 

Double-press to display the OSD. 

 

Plus Selector

settings.
