The last step to prepare in the Test App before selecting a student to assess is to calibrate the external monitor so it is aligned with the eyetracker and can pick up the eye movements when a student sits in front of it. Here is the guide for it.
This guide shows you how to calibrate the external monitor. You can only calibrate the monitor if the monitor icon in the test app shows two monitors (this means that two monitors/displays are detected by the app)
If you need to configure the monitor/display settings for the test app to detect both displays (as example image shows above), read this guide first before proceeding with the actual calibration : Configure audio, external monitor and eyetracker
How to calibrate the external monitor/monitor the student will read from
- Click on the icon for the monitors/displays
- Click "Calibrate Monitor", and then you will see this text on the screen of the laptop. Follow instructions
Move the mouse cursor in one direction over to the far side of the screen on your laptop/PC. If the mouse does not move to the student's screen, try doing the same thing but move the mouse in the other direction.
- On the external monitor/student screen, this instruction appears simultaneously:
- Click on the dotted line to move it sideways so it aligns with the white marks on top of the eyetracker.
- When the dotted line and the white marks on the eye tracker aligns, click 'Done'.
- Move the mouse cursor back to the laptop
- Now the student screen should be white with the text Lexplore and your laptop should show the application
