Summary of magnifier movement parameters: navigation errors
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Pauses | A period of at least 2 seconds where the magnifier remained stationary in the X-plane during the forward or retrace movement across a line |
Regressive movements | Movements (≥ 5mm) in the X-plane in the opposite direction to that in which the magnifier should have been moving in the forward or retrace phase. |
Overshoots | Movements in the X-plane where the magnifier was moved too far beyond the end (forward phase) or start (retrace phase) of a line and there was a compensatory movement (≥ 10mm) in the opposite direction to bring the magnifier back to the correct X-position. |
Undershoots | Movements in the X-plane which were not sufficient to bring the magnifier to the end (forward phase) or start (retrace phase) of the line and a compensatory movement (≥ 10mm) in the same X-direction had to be made |
Vertical corrective movements | Movements primarily in the Y-direction of greater than 3mm that corrected an error in the vertical positioning of the magnifier. |
