Cognivue Clarity® is indicated for use as an adjunctive tool for evaluating cognitive function. It is not a stand-alone diagnostic tool. The device results are to be assessed and interpreted by a licensed physician.
Cognivue Clarity® User Manual 2.0 Device Description The Cognivue Clarity® is a portable, battery powered, and laptop-like device that includes a wireless keyboard with a touchpad, a rotary CogniWheel® and a CogniCover®. The CogniWheel® is the sole patient input device. The CogniCover® is designed for privacy and to reduce distraction and light reflections on the computer screen.
Put the device on a flat, stable surface that is ergonomically comfortable for the patient (see below). The patient should be able to comfortably reach and manipulate the CogniWheel® and view the computer screen. Avoid placing the Cognivue Clarity® in a location where there may be distractions behind the device which are visible to the patient.
From the drop-down menu, select the available Wi-Fi network to which you wish to connect. In this example, the network is “Cognivue”, but you will connect to your network with a different name. If there is a large number of networks available, you may see a More networks option which you can check if you do not see your network listed.
To establish a wired connection to a network, connect one end of a standard network cable to an active network jack at your location and the other end into the RJ-45 network port on the back of the Cognivue Clarity® device. Follow the same instructions as above, but this time select Wired Connection 1. The icon in the top, left corner will now be the Network icon.
