This tutorial will show you the right steps how to successfully recalibrate and reconnect your HTC Vive Controller. Turn on the controllers by pressing the system button. They are already charged but if they don't turn on charge them using the power adapter for controllers. This are the steps that will guide you how to re-calibrate and reconnect your HTC Vive controller.
1. Connect your controller
■ First see if your controller is charged and turned on. If you want to turn on your controller press the system button( the lowest button).
■ To charge your controllers just plug them into an outlet with the micro USB cord and power adapter. When you do this if the light is orange then the charging is going okay, and if the charging is over than the light will be white.
■ If you have made some mistake and the connection is not successful than the light will be blue.
■ To repair the connection go to SteamVR – Settings – Devices – Pair Controller
2. If you have problems with the controller's touchpad

■ If the controller is in the blue blinking state go to SteamVR – Settings – Devices –Pair Controller, and you will repair it.
