Thanks, John.
I downloaded the X-T1 Owners Manual, and explored it. It offers some
hints, but doesn't show all of the options.
Page 63 shows the MF Assist options:
Focus Peak Highlight
Digital Split Image
The Dual Display
Page 95 shows the factory default settings
Go to MF Assist, and see if you can change it from Standard to Digital
Split Image
Hope this helps.

Jim ....
here is another video pertaining to the X-T1.
As hard as I try I am unable to replicate the horizontal side to side
split image seen on the full area of the X-T1's screen.
In fact I am unable to get into split screen mode by an extended
period of pressing the 'Focus Assist' button.

Hi John,
First, thank you for the link. I am considering purchasing an X-T2, and
this contained a lot of interesting information.
Secondly, my takeaway from this is that the term, "split image", can
have multiple meanings. As shown in the video, I don't find it to be
"rangefinder-like" at all. It shows the full image on the left, and a
magnified center portion on the right. The camera has several ways of
enhancing the contrast of the magnified image, making focusing easier.
But, if one is expecting a split image such as that provided by a Leica
rangefinder camera, I did not find it.

A Fuji X-T1 used in combination with the Fujifilm M mount adapter and
an M lens allows the user to use a rangefinder-like split image
focusing mechanism.
This is referred to here:

about half way down the article in the paragraph headed "Manual
Focusing".
If anyone is familiar with this focusing method on the X-T1 could they
please advise me how I bring the split image focusing method into play.
If it is at all relevant I have a Konica M-Hexanon 50mm f2 lens.
Thanks
