Tips for Getting into the Proper Position when Using the ECOpoint.
Positioning the ECOpoint and Getting Started
The positioning of the EcoPoint system in relation to the user is extremely important. Because of this you will probably have to try out different positions. Once you begin setting options you may have to refine the positioning again.
ECOpoint System Parameters
The ECOpoint "eyebox" is measured at 10" x 15" x 8". As long as your eyes are within this area you are in the view range of the ECOpoint. At this time you must be positioned 20 to 24 inches from the ECO screen. If you move in and out of the view area, the system will "remember" you. This means that once you set up the system you should not have to recalibrate it because of body movement.
Make sure the positioning mount is both sturdy and very flexible.
Meeting the following positioning requirements will help you achieve success with the ECOpoint system:
1. You must have one eye (preferably two) within the eyebox.
2. You should be between 20 and 24 inches from the ECO screen.
3. Your nose must be aimed at, or slightly above, the midpoint (or upper 2/3rds of the ECO screen.)
4. Your face must be straight-on to the ECO screen. If you are tilted due to positioning or posture, the ECO/ECOpoint must be tilted at a similar angle so that your face is directly in front and within 20-24 inches of the ECO.
5. There can be no obstructions between your face and the ECO/ECOpoint.
Go to your Toolbox, then select Access Method Menu. Now choose the Eye Track Status key to see the adjustment box on the ECO screen as shown below.
Adjust the angle of the device until the front of your face and the display are parallel.
Your eyes should be between 20 and 24 inches from the screen.
The yellow triangle shows your distance position inside the imaginary box. Adjust your distance from the ECO until the triangle is at the widest part of the green diamond.
Your nose should be pointed at the vertical middle of the screen and your eyes should be looking at the top 1/3rd.
The white dots show the relative position of your eyes inside the imaginary box. Adjust the vertical position of your ECO until the dots are vertically centered in the black box.
Your nose and eyes should be pointed at the horizontal center of the screen
The white dots show the relative position of your eyes inside the imaginary box. Adjust the horizontal position of your ECO until the dots are horizontally centered in the black box.
The vertical and horizontal axis of the ECO should be aligned with the vertical and horizontal axis of your head.
If your head is tilted to the left or right, tilt the ECO to match the angle of your head.
The white dots show the relative tilt of your eyes inside the imaginary box. Adjust the left-right tilt of your ECO until the dots are horizontally level in the black box.
You are now ready to calibrate the system.
