Ari OS Start-Up Guide
Everything you need to get a new device working, in the order you will need it.
Wearing the device
How you wear the device depends on which one you have.
The Arc 3 is worn like a headband and its display is fixed over the right eye, so there is no display to position and no side to choose. A wide eyebox means it lines up naturally as soon as you put it on. Straps and padding can be removed or swapped for comfort, and it fits over prescription glasses and Peltor-style ear defenders.
On Navigator devices the display sits on a boom arm that you move to whichever eye you prefer. Work out which eye is dominant first, so you know which side to use, then position the display until you can see all four corners of the screen. The display is repositioned each time the device is put on, so familiarity with moving the boom arm and tilting the display is worth acquiring early.
Speaking to the device
The device is driven by voice. Rather than tapping a button, you say the words shown on the screen.
Alongside those commands there is Ari, the assistant built into Ari OS. Say “HEY ARI” and then just keep talking, in ordinary language, to ask a question, open an app or place a call. Ari shows what it heard and what it answered on screen as you speak.
Ari asks for your permission the first time the device is set up. If you said no then, you can turn it on later.
Setting it up
- Remote web browser configuration, to connect the device to Wi-Fi by scanning a code
- Language selector, to change the language the device uses
- Bluetooth setup, to pair a headset, speaker or phone
- Security setup, to lock the device with a PIN
- Power options, to power down, reboot or sleep
Showing the screen on a computer
Vysor mirrors the device display on a desktop, so you can show what you are seeing and drive the device with a mouse and keyboard.
Managing devices with Ari Business
Ari Business Cloud is where a fleet of devices is configured, monitored and updated.
Keeping the device up to date
Firmware updates arrive about once a year and carry security patches, fixes and new features.
