The readout will alternately display the two reaction times, each second. The top cursor
indicates the release time; the bottom cursor indicates the response time.

14. Sports vision testing and training, Gardner product

This is a variation of activity #7 (automatic mode with speed adjustment) used for a standardized
test developed by Dr. Jack Gardner for measuring eye/hand coordination which takes both
proaction and reaction times into account for accurate and repeatable rapid testing. The lights
start moving automatically at the preset speed (parameter #3). For each correct respoonse, the
speed increases. At the end of the preset time (parameter #2), the display shows the product of
the number of correct responses and the final speed in lights/minute. For Dr. Gardner's
standardized test the light pattern should be random, the initial speed should be 60 lights per
minute, and the elapsed time limit should be 30 seconds. Factory program #21 uses these
settings. The final speed may be viewed by pressing "enter" followed by "3". If you do this, you
must then either re-enter the preset starting speed before pressing "enter" again, or press
"enter" and then reload the program from memory (e.g. 9-21). Otherwise the next session will
start at the final speed from the previous one.

15. Activity counting

This activity counts the number of times a button is pressed. If parameter #5 is set to 1, each
press of the button in the three o'clock position will generate a tone and increase the count. If
parameter #5 is set to 2 for "bilateral counting," the three o'clock button must be pressed
followed by the nine o'clock button, with the count occurring on the nine o'clock button.

16. Synchronized rhythm

Similar to activity #15, but the button(s) involved flash on and off at a speed determined by
parameter #3. Pressing the light when "on" results in a count and tone; trainee must release
button and wait for light to flash off and then on again before pressing it again.

17. Peripheral awareness training

Similar to activity #1 (self pacing), but the center light flashes on and off at a rate set by
parameter #3 (lights/minute). The trainee must press the outer light while the center light is "on"
in order to score a point and advance to the next light. The Wayne Sports trainer programs are
preset to use the #9 light of the right side as the center fixation light for the right and left sides of
the unit., To use only one side of the unit, press "0" and press "20" now press ENTER. To add
sound to the fixation light (Auditory Cuing) Press "0" and press "11", now press ENTER. To select
only the right side of the unit press "0" press "33" now press ENTER.
18. Peripheral awareness testing
Like activity #17, but pressing the outer light while the center light is off will advance to the next
light without scoring a point (trainee doesn't get a second chance).
