# updateHeadsetCustomInfo

This method lets you set the headband position of an EPOC X headset.

The headband position is important to interpret the motion data coming from the headset. The motion sensor is located in the headband. So Cortex uses the headband position to know the orientation of the motion sensor.

When you [start a record](../records/createrecord) Cortex saves the current headband position into the record. So you should set the  position before starting the record.

_This method was added in Cortex 2.4_
