No warning in case of different perimeter groups The manufacturers of perimeters have produced different types over the years. The instruments of the same manufacturer belong to a PERIMETER GROUP. Within the perimeter group, the results are well comparable. The comparison with examinations performed on instruments from another perimeter group (other manufacturer) has a lower power. Therefore, PeriData shows a warning message. In addition, the following red info text will always be displayed in the Trend Selection Window: ! Perimeter-MIX ! On the printout there is the notification in the IntelliText
OFF (standard): The warning message is shown with every trend analysis.
ON: The warning message is not shown. The red info text is visible.
