The
Test Parameter Editor
view shows all parameters that can
be changed for the selected test type. In the case of
Drop
Jump
it contains two parameters:
•
Number of Jumps
determines the amount of jumps each sub-
ject performs before the test is considered complete.
• Drop Height
determines the default drop height for each
jump. This parameter can be adjusted before each jump is
performed.
Tapping on the labels describing the parameter types (
Jump
Count
and
Drop Height
in case of
Drop Jump
) shows a pop-up
description about the parameter as shown in Figure 20. The
pop-up descriptions are necessary, since all required informa-
tion about certain parameters do not fit into one page.
Set the
Jump Count
to 5 and
Drop Height
to 10 and tap on the
Save & Exit
button to save the changes.
Changing test parameters
Before a test is started, the parameters for the test need to
be set. There are three types of test parameters that can be
changed:
Global Parameters
,
Test-Specific Parameters
and
Re-
sult-Specific Parameters
.
Global Parameters
are test-specific
parameters that affect all
Test Actions
that are started in the
future.
Test-Specific Parameters
only affect the current test in
progress and
Result-Specific Parameters
affect individual
Test
Results
. Here are some examples of parameters:
• In
Drop Jump
the subjects generally jump five times, so the
Global Parameter Drop Jump Count
is set to 5.
• Mr. Manager is interested in doing a longer jump sequence
to his group, so he sets the
Test-Specific Parameter Drop
Jump Count
to 10. After the group has finished, the jump
count will be returned back to five.
• The
Drop Height
parameter can be set individually for each
jump. Mr. Manager wants his group to jump three times
from 10 cm, three times from 15 cm and four times from 20
cm, so this parameter is changed before first, after third and
after sixth jump for each subject.
To change the
Global Parameters
of
Drop Jump
, choose the
Drop Jump
test from the test list, select the
Edit Test
action and
tap the
Do Action
button. This enters the
Test Parameter Editor
view shown in Figure 19.
