Quest 2, Oculus Link Beta, link USB C cable. How can I tell if I am running the Oculus Link Beta?

[Uriah]

I have seen several post about the new update to Oculus Link, particularly the Beta.  I am unsure that I am using the latest version or even the Beta version of Link.  Under Settings at the bottom it says Oculus App Version 27.0.0.27.507

 

I use the usb type c cable from Oculus.  I have it plugged into my PC on a dedicated type C card that has direct power from the powersupply.  BEYMEI PCI Express 4 x to USB 3.1 gEN 2 (10 Gbs) Type C.

To enroll in the Beta, you need to opt into the Public Test Channel.

Look for it in your Oculus desktop settings.

I don't know about enrolling but I do have that switch turned on (blue background, white dot to the right).

If you have it turned on then you are running the beta.

Look at the bottom of the General page and currently if you are on beta it will say Oculus App Version 27, otherwise it'll be 26 (26.1.0.41.502 specifically at the time of writing).

Thanks 335th_GRFirdimigdi.  I suspected I was not on beta.  it says Oculus App Version 27.0.0.37.507  
I am stumped at what I need to do to make it run beta.

You are on beta - v27 is the beta version, v26 is the stable release.

PTC = public test channel = public beta
