You should also be able to supply the serial number of the device, which you nd on the back of the device or in the C-Series Hardware Options, see the System Information section in the Using the Tobii C-Series chapter.For further product information and other support resources, please visit the Tobii community www.mytobiicommunity.com and the Tobii website www.tobii.com.1.4 WarrantyPlease read this User’s Manual carefully before using the device. The warranty is only valid if the device is used according to the User’s Manual and the warranty seal is not broken. Disassembling the C-Series device will void the warranty.
8Tobii C-Series User’s ManualThe C-Series device has been tested and approved as compliant to all the Specications and Standards listed in the 8.3 Appendix C: Compliance Information section of this manual and in the 8.4 Appendix D: Technical Specications section -- including, but not limited to, the Medical Device Standard (Class 1/ Type B). Nevertheless, in order to ensure safe operation of your Tobii C-series device, there are a few safety warnings to bear in mind:Do not place the device on your lap, a pillow or any other soft material when it is powered on, since the material can block the fan and cause the device to overheat. The C-Series device contains Lithium Ion batteries. These batteries have a storage temperature range of between -20°C and 40°C within 3 month. Only charge the batteries in the temperature range of between 0°C and 40°C. Avoid exposing the batteries to re or to temperatures above 50°C (122°F). These conditions may cause a battery to malfunction, generate heat, ignite or explode. Be aware that it is possible, in a worst case scenario, for temperatures to reach greater than those stated above in, for example, the trunk of a car on a hot day. So, storing the device, with batteries installed, in a hot car trunk could conceivably lead to a malfunction.Do not disassemble or harm the battery. Pay attention to the environmental laws and regulations which apply in your area when disposing of batteries.For safe operation of the C-Series device, use only charger, batteries and accessories approved by Tobii Technology.Do not open, or modify, the metal casing of the C-Series device or of the power supply, since you may be exposed to potentially hazardous electrical voltage. The device contains no serviceable parts. If the C-Series device or it’s accessories are mechanically damaged, do not try to use them.2.1 Avoiding Hearing DamagePermanent hearing loss may occur if earphones, headphones or speakers are used at high volume. To prevent this, the volume should be set to a safe Safety2Chapter 2 Safety
9Tobii C-Series User’s ManualChapter 2 Safetylevel. You can become desensitized over time to high sound levels which may then sound acceptable yet still could be damaging your hearing. If you experience symptoms such as ringing in your ears, please lower the volume or stop using the earphones/headphones. The louder the volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected.Hearing experts suggest the following measures to protect your hearing:• Limit the amount of time you use earphones or headphones at high volume.• Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.• Turn the volume down if you cannot hear people speaking near you.To establish a safe volume level:1. Set your volume control at a low setting.2. Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.2.2 Mounting WarningThe C-Series devices should be mounted according to instructions for approved mounts or mounting brackets. However, should the device for any reason harm or damage someone or something due to falling, neither Tobii Technology nor any of its representatives will be responsible or liable for any damages or injuries which may arise. The mounting of devices from the C-Series is done entirely at the user’s own risk.2.3 Emergency WarningDo not rely on the device for emergency calls or banking transactions. We recommend having multiple ways to communicate in emergency situations. Banking transactions should only be carried out with a system recommended by, and approved according to the standards of, your bank.2.4 Infrared WarningWhen activated, the Tobii CEye emits pulsed infrared (IR) light. Certain medical devices are susceptible to disturbance by IR light and/or radiation. Do not use the CEye when in the vicinity of such susceptible medical devices as their accuracy or proper functionality could be inhibited.
10Tobii C-Series User’s Manual2.5 Epilepsy WarningSome people with Photosensitive Epilepsy are susceptible to epileptic seizures or loss of consciousness when exposed to certain ashing lights or light patterns in everyday life. This may happen even if the person has no medical history of epilepsy or has never had any epileptic seizures. A person with Photosensitive Epilepsy would also be likely to have problems with TV screens, some arcade games, and ickering uorescent bulbs. Such people may have a seizure while watching certain images or patterns on a monitor, or even when exposed to the light sources of an eye tracker. It is estimated that about 3-5% of people with epilepsy have this type of Photosensitive Epilepsy. Many people with Photosensitive Epilepsy experience an “aura” or feel odd sensations before the seizure occurs. If you feel odd during use, move your eyes away from the eye tracker.2.6 Child SafetyThe C-Series are advanced computer systems and electronic devices. As such they are composed of numerous separate, assembled parts. In the hands of a child certain of these parts have the possibility of being separated from the device, possibly constituting a choking hazard or another danger to the child. Young children should not have access to, or the use of, the device without parental or guardian supervision.Chapter 2 Safety

14Tobii C-Series User’s Manual4.1 BatteriesThe C-Series device has two battery compartments. The batteries for the Tobii C8 differ in size and capacity from those of the Tobii C12 and C15, see the Appendix C: Technical Specications.Tobii C8 batteries:• Standard, included. Tobii C12 and C15 batteries:• Standard, included. 4.1.1 Hot SwappableYou can remove/replace one battery without switching off the device, providing that the remaining battery is sufciently charged. The remaining battery requires being at least 5% charged to maintain device operation.4.2 ChargingThe batteries should only be charged using the included adapter, or by using the Tobii C-Series Table Charger (not included, separate purchase required). When the C-Series device is shut down and the adapter is plugged in, the charging of completely discharged batteries may take up to 6 hours. The device can be used while the batteries are being charged, though this may affect the time a battery takes to reach full capacity.To be sure that charging takes place in both the C-Series device and when using the C-Series Table Charger, be sure to plug the adaptor into both the wall socket and the device or Charger BEFORE you insert the batteries.The expected battery lifetime is 500 charge/discharge cycles. After that, the capacity of the battery will decrease by about 20% in usage time.See Safety chapter for battery storage and charging temperatures.Batteries in the Tobii C-Series4Chapter 4 Batteries in the Tobii C-Series
15Tobii C-Series User’s Manual4.2.1 Checking Charge LevelClick on the battery icon, , in the Notication area to see the remaining charge of the battery, which is installed in the device.Notication AreaYou may also, at any time, check the status of a battery by pressing the indicator button on the face of the battery. Five LEDs (light-emitting diodes) will indicate the remaining charge level. For example, three lit LEDs indicate a 60% remaining charge. 100 80 60 40 20PushIndicator button and LED’sWhen charging, the highest capacity LED indicator will be blinking. The lowest capacity LED indicator (the “20” LED), will also blink when the indicator button is pressed if the battery’s capacity has dropped below 10%. So don’t rely upon the blinking of the 20% indicator as a guarantee for charging.If the batteries have been deeply discharged (this can happen by leaving an empty battery inserted in the C-Series device without the power adapter connected) you may not see any indication of charging when you reconnect the adapter properly to the C-Series device or the Table Charger. It may take some time (even up to 20 minutes) before you see an LED indication that any charging is taking place. The battery IS being charged during this duration though it is a recovery charge raising the level enough to begin normal charging. Chapter 4 Batteries in the Tobii C-Series
16Tobii C-Series User’s Manual4.3 Inserting and Releasing the BatteriesFor safety reasons, the C-Series device is delivered without the batteries inserted.
