5 Introduction - First Steps on Pronto! 18 V3

Congratulations! You finally have Pronto! in your hands and are no doubt
keen to learn how it works. The following text is not a complicated handbook,
and is aimed at introducing you to the main functions through practical
examples. You will be able to try out everything on your Pronto! as you read,
and thus gain your first experience with Pronto!.
5.1 Orientation and keys

Back to Pronto!. First things first.
Your fingers should rest on the 8 flat square buttons on the back upper side,
with the little fingers on the outermost Braille buttons B7 and B8, and the
thumbs on the two thumb keys on the front edge. Under your palm is the
Braille display. You can thus easily reach the Navistick stick in the round hole
in the middle of the front side with either thumb. The Navistick can be moved
up and down, to the right and to the left, and can be pressed in the middle
position.
To the right and left of the thumb keys you will see two small round buttons,
the so-called system buttons. They have various functions that will be
described below.
Switch on the Device
To start Pronto! for the first time or after a total discharge of the battery,
11
press the two outermost system buttons (S1+S4) simultaneously for roughly
3 seconds.
NB: when Pronto! is switched on and the outermost system keys S1 and S4
are pressed and held for approximately 10 seconds, Pronto! will completely
switch off again. You do not want to do this unless Pronto has crashed or you
do not want to use it for more than three weeks.
You will hear an ascending two-tone signal.
(If after this signal you hear another one with a high and a low tone, Pronto!
will automatically shut down completely because of a low battery. You have to
charge the battery first. Connect the small round plug of the charger cable
into the small round hole at the left rear side of Pronto!, and the other end of
the cable to a wall socket. Then press the two system buttons [S1+S4]
again).
During the switching-on procedure short signals will be emitted and after
about a minute you will hear the message Pronto menu Word processor.On
the Braille display you can read "MI w Word processor". Press the left thumb
key and a new, blank document will open. On the Braille display the cursor is
presented.
5.2 Volume
If Pronto! is speaking too loudly or too softly, you can adjust the volume in
increments. Press simultaneously the small system button at the far right
(S4) and one of the Braille keys. To set the volume at an average level press
the Braille key B4 with S4. The maximum volume can be set by pressing S4
and B8. The speech output will be turned off and on by pressing S4 with B7.
The volume can be adjusted with S4 and a Braille key when the speech
output is switched either on or off.
Press S4 together with Braille keys B3 and B7 to select soft values, and S4
with B6 and B8 to select louder values.
5.3 Writing Text

Please type a short sentence in ComputerBraille. Use the right thumb key to
enter a space.
(A Grade 2 option for english and some other languages is available. See
Chapter 5.11)
If you want to correct what you have just written, simply delete the
characters backwards by pressing B7 (the button under the little finger of
your left hand). To delete any other character from the sentence input, press
the cursor routing button behind the respective character on the Braille
12
display together with B7.

There are various ways of positioning the cursor:
1. Move the Navistick with the thumb in the respective direction to the
desired position.
2. Press the small cursor routing button behind the respective character on
the Braille display.
On the Braille display, the position of the cursor is now shown by underlined
dots 7 and 8.
New text will always be inserted at the current cursor position, so make sure
that the cursor is positioned at the end of the text before you continue to
type. To do so, press the Braille keys B4, B5 and B6 together with the left
thumb key. Practise by inputting a short text.
5.4 Reading Text

You want to read the first sentence again? Jump to the beginning of the text
by pressing the Braille keys B1, B2 and B3 together with the left thumb key.
To read the first sentence, press the Braille keys B3 and B6 together with the
two thumb keys. To read the next sentence, press B6 and the two thumb
keys. To read the previous sentence, press B3 and the two thumb keys.
When reading, the first 18 characters of the text are also displayed on the
Braille display. You can see the remaining part of the text with the help of the
display keys - three small round buttons in a row on the right and left of the
Braille display. By pressing the right middle display key (D5) you will see the
next 18 characters of the text, and by pressing the left middle display key
(D2) you will go back 18 characters. This is called scrolling.
5.5 Call up Values, Stand by and wake up Pronto!

Time has now passed and you may want to know what time it is. Press the
outermost right system button (S4) briefly and you will be told the time. Press
this button briefly twice and you will be told the date. If you press the system
button for too long, instead of getting the time, you will hear a faint signal
and Pronto! will switch to standby-mode. Even when Pronto! is sleeping,
however, you can hear the time and date by pressing S4 briefly.
How do you wake up Pronto! again and return to your document? Press the
left outermost system button (S1) for a few seconds. If you do not press it
long enough, Pronto! will continue sleeping and you will be told the
temperature. Press S1 briefly twice and you will be told the air pressure. Only
by pressing S1 for long enough will Pronto! wake up and return you to your
13
short text in Word Processor.
5.6 Help
How do you save your text and open a new empty document or another file,
for example the manual?
Pronto!s help files can assist here in the form of the automatic Quick Help
and the more detailed context sensitive Long Help. Quick Help provides
information on the highlighted element in a menu or dialog which will be
given automatically over the speech output connected to the spoken element
description. For more detailed information about the element and its
functions, open Long Help by pressing B2B6 and the left thumb key. Long
Help will now be read out, and it can be read on the Braille display by
scrolling with the display keys D5 and D2. If the help is to be read out again,
go down with the Navistick to the OK button and back up to the help text.
Press the left thumb key to close Long Help, and you will be taken back to the
previously highlighted element.
5.7 Saving Document

Let us start with the saving of documents.
1. Open the command menu by pressing the system button S3 once briefly
alternatively with the Braille keys B3 and B5 together with the left thumb key.
(all command menus can be called up with B3B5B9). (NB: pressing S3 briefly

key. You are now at the top of a list of files and can use the Navistick to
browse down. Here you will find the previously saved file, as well as the
Pronto! manual.
To open one of these files, go to it with the Navistick and press the left thumb
key.
5.9 Blank Document

We have now learned how to save texts and open available texts; we can
now open a new, blank document.
Proceed as follows:
1 Call up the command menu with the shortcut Braille keys B3 and B5 with
the left thumb key) or by pressing S3 once briefly.

6. The new document will now open and the cursor will be at the beginning of
the Braille line.
Our previously opened document is still open, however, and we can easily
move between them by pressing the Braille keys B3B6 together with B8 and
the left thumb key B9.
5.10 Delete Document and File Manager

Now lets delete our first document. For this we leave word-processor and
learn about file manager.
1. Press the system key S3 (immediately alongside the right thumb key) for
about 3 seconds
2. You will hear Pronto menu > Word-processor, and MI w Word-processor
w+B9B7B8 will appear on the Braille display. If S3 has been pressed too

to the file list where other files can be deleted or opened.
Although the file has been deleted from the storage card it can still be found
on Prontos internal RAM, i.e. it can still be displayed on the Braille display in
word processor and could be saved under the new name.
5.11Close Document
To delete a file from RAM it must be closed in Word processor. Switch to Word
processor by pressing the system key S1 slightly longer, or go to the Pronto!
menu and select Word processor.
Then proceed as follows:
1. Press S3 once briefly to open the command menu and you will be taken to
the first entry, File
2. Move the Navistick to the right and then down to close, and then press
the left thumb key (B9)

At this point you have already learned a good deal. You can write and save
texts, open the manual and delete files, and you know how to find out the
time and other useful information.
5.13MP3 Player
Finally, lets listen to a bit of music and learn how to use Prontos MP3 player
at the same time.
1. Open the Pronto! menu by pressing the system button S3 for a few
seconds - this is the round button alongside the right thumb key. If you
release the button too quickly the command menu will open; this must be

8. The Music folder lists the individual mp3 files. To select one of them,
simply browse through the list to it with the Navistick and press the left
thumb key.
9. The list will now close and the music will start.
10. The file name will be displayed on the Braille display. The first three
Braille elements show in percentage terms, how much of the mp3 has
17
already been played. The shortcut hyphon with B7B8B9 will also give this
information via speech output.
11. The music can be stopped and resumed from the same place by pressing
the left thumb key once again.
12. During play the B2 key can be pressed to rewind approximately 10
seconds, and B5 to fast forward 10 seconds.
13. To stop the music press the right thumb key.
14. The volume of the mp3 player can be adjusted by pressing the extreme
right system key S4 together with one of the Braille keys (device volume).
15. To quit the mp3 player press and hold one of the system keys: with S1, S2

Background music can be played whilst working in Word-processor.
Recap: S1 opens Word-processor,S2 opens Planner, S3 the Pronto! menu,
and S4 switches to standby-mode.
5.14Switch off Pronto!

How do we switch Pronto! off?
By pressing the right outermost system key (S4) for a few seconds Pronto!
will switch to standby mode.
If you forget to switch Pronto! off, there is no need to worry about a flat
battery. The automatic shut-down function is set so that Pronto! will switch
itself off if it has not been used for 10 minutes, or no mp3 files have been
played.
Pronto! is still able to tell the date and time, give the battery status or recall
an appointment.
If Pronto! cannot be woken up by pressing S1, S2 or S3 for a few seconds,
and cannot give the time by pressing S4 briefly, Pronto! has either shut down
completely or has been forced into standby mode because the battery
urgently needs charging. In this state unsaved data will only be kept for a
few hours; Pronto! must be connected to the mains supply as quickly as
possible, however, to charge the battery and avoid any loss of data. Once
connected to the mains, Pronto! can be woken up from forced standby mode
in the usual manner by pressing S1, S2 or S3 for a few seconds.
Pronto! is a Windows CE device and as such does not usually shut down
completely. If the device is shut down completely either through power loss
or running a system reset, data loss must be anticipated. A complete
shutdown is indicated by a clear falling two-tone signal and by the Braille
display switching to off.

6 Introduction - First Steps on Pronto! 40

Congratulations on acquiring your organizer Pronto! no doubt you are keen
to discover all that Pronto! can do. The following pages do not constitute a
complete handbook but are designed to introduce you to the most important
functions through practical examples, and to help you find your way around
the keyboard.
Everything you read here can be tried out immediately on Pronto!, thus
helping you on your way with Pronto!.

Back to Pronto!: how is it set out?
The upper surface has the keys of a normal small keyboard like you would
find on a PC. It is also possible to remove this keyboard and replace a 8 dot
Braille keyboard. Both keyboards are modules which can easyly be changed
by the user himself. To change te keyboard modules proceed as follows:
1. In the rear part of the upper side, left and right beside the keyboard you
find 2 interlock keys
2. Push simultaniously the rihgt key to the right and the left key to the left.
This unfastens the keyboard modul.
3. Lift the modul and remove it.
4. Without the keyboard modul the upper side of teh device shows a
deepening where the modul normally is placed.
5. To fasten the keyboard modul, put the front edge of the modul in th front
part of the deepening then let it down to the rear side and press it down.
6. The interlock keys fasten and the keyboard modul is connected to the
device.
You can change the modules even when Pronto! is switched on.
Now, we let Pronto! with the standard keyboard on it and explore the other
20
parts and keys of the upper side.

Left beside the keyboard you find a single round button. This is the REC
Button to start recordings with the voice recorder. The build in microphone is
placed on the right side of teh keyboard and marked by a small hole.
In front of the keyboard you find the Braille display with cursor routing keys
(Positioning keys) at each cell and 3 Display keys each right and left beside
the Braille Display.
You can feel a small movable switch on the sloped front side of the device.
This is the Navistick which allows movement to the right, left, up and down,
and which can also be pressed. With this navistick we can move in
documents, menus or lists and select functions. It facilitates all movement in
these directions independently of the arrow keys.
To the left and right of the navistick you find two small square buttons. They
are thumb keys as on the Braille keyboard modul.
On the right-hand side there is a small, round key; this is the power on/off
button that is used to switch Pronto! on and off completely.
6.1.1
The keys of the keyboard
Now lets turn back to the standard keyboard and its keys themselves.
They are arranged in english keyboard leyout as follows (from top to bottom,
and from left to right):

Like all similar computer keyboards, some keys have more than one function
assigned to them. In this introduction only the first assigned function will be
given. The keys are arranged for the english key board layout as follows (from
top to bottom, and from left to right):
Top line:

The following keys have a small raised dot: a, f, j, semi colon, n, y, 2, 6,
minus, the TAB key, the left and right Control keys, and the right Shift key.
As a starting position place the fingers of the left hand on the a, s, d and f
keys, and the fingers of the right hand on j, k, l and semi colon.
When using the Braille keyboard we will find 8 Braille keys and 2 thumb keys.
From left to right they are designated B7, B3, B2, B1, B4, B5, B6, B8. hte left
tumb key is called B9, the right thumb key is called B0 and is space.
Lets look more closely at the sloped front side. We already know the 2
square thumb keys left (B9) and rihgt (B0) of the Navistick. Further to the left
and the right we find each 2 small round buttons. These system keys are
used to switch Pronto! to stand-by mode, to switch it back on, and to switch
between various applications. They can also carry out other functions that we
will learn later.
From left to right on the sloped front side we find the following elements:
S1 and S2 keys, the thumb key B9, the Navistick, the thumb key B0, the S3
and S4 keys.
6.2 Switch on the Device

To switch Pronto! on (either for the first time or after recharging the battery)
press and hold the on/off button for ca. 3 seconds.
NB: if this button is pressed again, Pronto! will shut down completely. Pronto!
should normally be switched off by using the system keys to switch to Standby mode.
22
After switching on you will hear a two-tone rising signal; if you hear a falling
two-tone signal immediately afterwards, Pronto! will shut down automatically
as it is not receiving enough power. If so, the battery must be charged: take
the charger, insert the small round plug into the small opening on the far
back at the left of Pronto!, and connect the second cable to a power socket.
Then press the on/off button on the right-hand side of the device once again
and wait for the rising signal.
about a minute you will hear the message Pronto! menu Word processor.
Now press Return or on the Braille keyboard the left thumb key B9 to confirm,
and a blank document will open.
6.3 Volume
If Pronto!s announcements are too loud or too quiet, the volume can be
adjusted with the wheel on the left side of the device. Turning the wheel
towards you will decrease the volume, and turning it away from you will
increase it. The volume cannot be turned off completely with this wheel and it
will always retain a minimum value.
6.4 Writing text

Now type your first practice text: Pronto! is wonderful and very useful. We
enjoy working with Pronto!. Then press Return or Braille key B8 to start a
new line.
If you make any typing errors, simply press Backspace (the last key on the
right of the top row) or press the Braille key B7 to delete the characters
backwards.
There are several ways of placing the cursor at a particular point:
1. move the Navistick with your thumb in the appropriate direction to the
desired spot
2. use the right or left arrow key to the desired spot
3. Press the smal positioning key to rout the cursor onto the desired position.
When moving through the text the speech output will read out the current
character and on the Braille display the cursor is displayed with dots 7,8.
New text will always be inserted at the current cursor position; please ensure
that the cursor is placed at the end of the line before inputting more text. To
do this either use the arrow keys to move down and then to the right, letter
by letter, until you reach the end of the last word, or use the command to
jump to the end of the file press and hold the left FN key, press and hold the
left Control key, press the right arrow key and then release all three keys. The
left FN key is the third key from the left on the bottom row. This key
23
combination corresponds to the command Control+End, which is perhaps

known to you from Windows.
When using the Braille keyboard the command to jump to the end of the file
is executed by pressing the Braille keys B4B5B6 together with the left thumb
key B9.
Practice by writing a few more sentences.
6.5 Reading Text

To read through your practice text, jump to the beginning of the file by
pressing the left FN key together with the Control key and the left arrow key
or Braille keys B1B2B3 together with the left thumb key B9.
To read line by line, either go down the text with the Navistick or the down
arrow, or similarly up with the Navistick or the up arrow.
When reading, only 40 characters of the text are displayed on the Braille
display. You can see the remaining part of the text with the help of the display
keys - three small round buttons in a row on the right and left of the Braille
display. By pressing the right middle display key (D5) you will see the next 40
characters of the text line, and by pressing the left middle display key (D2)
you will go back 40 characters. This is called scrolling.
6.6 Call up Values, Stand by and wake up Pronto!

Some time has now passed and you would like to know what time it is: briefly
pressing the System key S4 will give the local time (S4 is the second key on
the right along from the Navistick). Pressing this key briefly twice in
succession will give the date. If this key is pressed for a little longer, however,
you will not hear the time but instead you will hear a faint signal and Pronto!
will switch to Stand-by mode; even when Pronto! is asleep you can still
consult the time or date by pressing S4 briefly.
So, how do we now wake Pronto! up and get back to our practice text? Simply
press the extreme left System key (S1) for a short while if you do not hold it
down long enough Pronto! will carry on sleeping and this time will read out
the temperature. Out of curiosity you once again press the S1 key twice
briefly and this time you will hear the air pressure.
If you press the left System key (S1) long enough, Pronto! will wake up. This
will take you back to the Word processor where you can read your practice
text by moving up and down through it.
24
6.7 Help
How can the practice text be saved, or a new blank document or new file
opened (e.g. the manual)?
Pronto!s help system can help with these tasks. There are two types: the
automatic Quick Help, and the context sensitive Long Help. Quick Help
provides information on the highlighted element of a menu or dialog, and is
given automatically via the speech output. For more detailed information on
the element and its functions, Long Help can be called up by pressing the F1
key: press the FN key (i.e. the third key from the left on the bottom row)
together with the number 1 key, and Help will be read out and displayed in
Braille.
When using the Braille keyboard you can call up the context sensitive help by
pressing Braille keys B2B6 together with the left thumb key B9.
To listen once more go down with the Navistick to the OK key and then back
up to the Help text.
Press the return or B9 key to confirm the OK button, this closes Help and
you return to the previously highlighted element.
6.8 Saving Document

Lets begin with saving documents.
1. call up the Command menu by pressing the Alt key (this can be found on
the left, next to the left space bar and it can be used to call up the Command
menu from any application). Alternatively, press the System key S3 once
briefly to open the Command menu; the S3 key can be found to the right of
the Navistick (NB: pressing S3 or Alt once more briefly will close the menu).
2. the menu will open at the first entry, File. The other menu options can be
accessed by moving up and down with the Navistick, but for the time being

You have by now learned a lot: you can write and save texts, open the
Manual, delete files, and consult the local time and other information.
6.14MP3 Player
To finish, lets listen to some music and at the same time learn how to use
Pronto!s mp3 player. Proceed as follows:
1. open the Pronto! menu by pressing the Windows key (WIN), or by pressing

28
it simply by browsing through the list with the Navistick and pressing Return
or the left thumb key B9.
9. the file list will close and the music will play. The Braille display will display
the file name. The first three Braille elements will display how much of the
file has already been played in percent. This information can also be
consulted and read out by pressing the Windows key together with the minus
key (-) . When using the Braille keyboard press hyphon with B7B8B9.
10. pause and resume music from the same place by pressing Return or the
left thumb key B9.
11. during play, moving to the left will rewind 10 seconds at a time, and
moving to the right will fast forward 10 seconds at a time.
12. to stop the music press the space bar, or the right thumb key B0.
13. quit the mp3 player by pressing one of the System keys for a short while:
with S1, S2 and S3 the mp3 player will continue playing in the background;
S4 will stop the player.
Recap: S1 opens the Word processor; S2 opens the Planner; S3 opens the
Pronto! menu; S4 switches the device to Stand-by mode.

How is Pronto! switched off?
Press and hold S4 (the second small round key on the right of the Navistick)
to switch Pronto! to Stand-by mode.
If you forget to switch Pronto! off, dont worry about finding a flat battery; the
automatic shutdown function is so designed, as a standard feature, that
Pronto! will shut itself down automatically after 10 minutes inactivity or 10
minutes after an audio file has finished playing.
Even when Pronto! is asleep, however, it is still able to tell the date and
time, give the battery status or give a reminder of an appointment.
If Pronto! cannot be woken up after pressing S1, S2 or S3 for a short while
and the time cannot be consulted by pressing them briefly, it has either shut
down completely or has been forced into Stand-by mode because the battery
urgently needs charging.
In this situation unsaved data are still available for a few hours, but the
charger must be connected as soon as possible to charge the battery and
avoid any loss of data. As soon as the charger is connected Pronto! can be
woken up from its enforced Stand-by mode in the usual manner by pressing
S1, S2 or S3 for a short while.
Pronto! is a Windows CE device and as such is never completely shut down.
If, however, the device is shut down completely following a power cut or
System reset (on/off button), some loss of data is to be expected. Warning of
a complete shutdown is given in the form of a clear falling two-tone signal.

7 Introduction - First Steps on Pronto! QS

Congratulations on acquiring Pronto! QS no doubt you are keen to discover
all that Pronto! can do. The following pages do not constitute a complete
handbook but are designed to introduce you to the most important functions
through practical examples, and to help you find your way around the
keyboard.
Everything you read here can be tried out immediately on Pronto!, thus
helping you on your way with Pronto!.

Back to Pronto!: how is it set out?
The upper surface has the keys of a normal small keyboard like you would
find on a PC. You will know if the keyboard is the right way round if you can
feel a small movable switch on the front side; this is the Navistick which
allows movement to the right, left, up and down, and which can also be
pressed.
On the right-hand side there is a small, round key; this is the on/off button
that is used to switch Pronto! on and off completely.

of the front side with both thumbs. This switch is called the Navistick and it
can be moved up, down, to the right, and to the left; it can also be pressed in
the middle position. It facilitates all movement in these directions
independently of the arrow keys.
Lets look more closely at the front side. To the left of the Navistick there are
two somewhat deeply set square keys, and to the right there are three more.
These system keys are used to switch Pronto! to stand-by mode, to switch it
back on, and to switch between various applications. They can also carry out
other functions that we will learn later.
From left to right on the front side we find the S1 and S2 keys, the Navistick,
the S3 and S4 keys, and the REC key.
7.2 Switch on the device

To switch Pronto! on (either for the first time or after recharging the battery)
press and hold the on/off button for ca. 3 seconds.
NB: if this button is pressed again, Pronto! will shut down completely. Pronto!
should normally be switched off by using the system keys to switch to Standby mode.
After switching on you will hear a two-tone rising signal; if you hear a falling
two-tone signal immediately afterwards, Pronto! will shut down automatically
as it is not receiving enough power. If so, the battery must be charged: take
the charger, insert the small round plug into the small opening on the far left
at the back of Pronto!, and connect the second cable to a power socket. Then
press the on/off button on the right-hand side of the device once again and
wait for the rising signal.
about 1 minute you will hear the message Pronto! menu Word processor.
Now press Return to confirm, and a blank document will open.
7.3 Volume
If Pronto!s announcements are too loud or too quiet, the volume can be
adjusted with the wheel on the left side of the device. Turning the wheel
towards you will decrease the volume, and turning it away from you will
increase it. The volume cannot be turned off completely with this wheel and it
will always retain a minimum value.
7.4 Writing Text

Now type your first practice text: Pronto! is wonderful and very useful. We
32
enjoy working with Pronto!. Then press Return to start a new sentence.
If you make any typing errors, simply press Backspace (the last key on the
right of the top row) to delete the characters backwards.
There are several ways of placing the cursor at a particular point:
1. move the Navistick with your thumb in the appropriate direction to the
desired spot
2. use the right or left arrow key to the desired spot
When moving through the text the speech output will read out the current
character.
New text will always be inserted at the current cursor position; please ensure
that the cursor is placed at the end of the line before inputting more text. To
do this either use the arrow keys to move down and then to the right, letter
by letter, until you reach the end of the last word, or use the command to
jump to the end of the file press and hold the left FN key, press and hold the
left Control key, press the right arrow key and then release all three keys. The
left FN key is the third key from the left on the bottom row. This key
combination corresponds to the command Control+End, which is perhaps
known to you from Windows.
Practice by writing a few more sentences.
7.5 Reading Text

To read through your practice text, jump to the beginning of the file by
pressing the left FN key together with the Control key and the left arrow key.
To read line by line, either go down the text with the Navistick or the down
arrow, or similarly up with the Navistick or the up arrow.
Call up values, stand by and wake up Pronto!
Some time has now passed and you would like to know what time it is: briefly
pressing the System key S4 will give the local time (S4 is the second key on
the right along from the Navistick). Pressing this key briefly twice in
succession will give the date. If this key is pressed for a little longer, however,
you will not hear the time but instead you will hear a faint signal and Pronto!
will switch to Stand-by mode; even when Pronto! is asleep you can still
consult the time or date by pressing S4 briefly.
So, how do we now wake Pronto! up and get back to our practice text? Simply
press the extreme left System key (S1) for a short while if you do not hold it
down long enough Pronto! will carry on sleeping and this time will read out
the temperature. Out of curiosity you once again press the S1 key twice
briefly and this time you will hear the air pressure.
33
If you press the left System key (S1) long enough, Pronto! will wake up. This
will take you back to the Word processor where you can read your practice
text by moving up and down through it.
7.6 Help
How can the practice text be saved, or a new blank document or new file
opened (e.g. the manual)?
Pronto!s help system can help with these tasks. There are two types: the
automatic Quick Help, and the context sensitive Long Help. Quick Help
provides information on the highlighted element of a menu or dialog, and is
given automatically via the speech output. For more detailed information on

7.12MP3 Player
To finish, lets listen to some music and at the same time learn how to use
Pronto!s mp3 player. Proceed as follows:
1. open the Pronto! menu by pressing the Windows key (WIN), or by pressing
S3 for a short while S3 is the recessed square key to the right of the
Navistick. If S3 has not been held long enough, the Command menu will

Navistick and confirm open entry by pressing Return.
6. A list of files and folders will now open, similar to open files in the word
processor.
7. go up or down with the Navistick to Storage card. Move the Navistick to
the right to access the different levels in the sub-folder. Now go up or down
with the Navistick to the Music folder and open it by moving the Navistick
once more to the right.
8. the Music folder contains all the individual mp3 files. To open one of
them select it simply by browsing through the list with the Navistick and
pressing Return.
9. the file list will close and the music will play. (If a Braille display has been
connected, it will display the file name. The first three Braille elements will
display how much of the file has already been played in percent). This
information can also be consulted and read out by pressing the Windows key
together with the minus key (-).
10. pause and resume music from the same place by pressing Return.
11. during play, moving to the left will rewind 10 seconds at a time, and
37
moving to the right will fast forward 10 seconds at a time.

12. to stop the music press the space bar, or CTRL together with Return.
13. the volume of the mp3 player can be adjusted with the wheel on the left
side of the device (device volume).
14. quit the mp3 player by pressing one of the System keys for a short while:
with S1, S2 and S3 the mp3 player will continue playing in the background;
S4 will stop the player.
It is thus possible to use the Word processor and listen to music in the
background at the same time.
Recap: S1 opens the Word processor; S2 opens the Planner; S3 opens the
Pronto! menu; S4 switches the device to Stand-by mode.

How is Pronto! switched off?
Press and hold S4 (the second key on the right of the Navistick) to switch
Pronto! to Stand-by mode.
If you forget to switch Pronto! off, dont worry about finding a flat battery; the
automatic shutdown function is so designed, as a standard feature, that
Pronto! will shut itself down automatically after 10 minutes inactivity or 10
minutes after an mp3 file has finished playing.
Even when Pronto! is asleep, however, it is still able to tell the date and
time, give the battery status or give a reminder of an appointment.
If Pronto! cannot be woken up after pressing S1, S2 or S3 for a short while
and the time cannot be consulted by pressing them briefly, it has either shut
down completely or has been forced into Stand-by mode because the battery
urgently needs charging.
In this situation unsaved data are still available for a few hours, but the
charger must be connected as soon as possible to charge the battery and
avoid any loss of data. As soon as the charger is connected Pronto! can be
woken up from its enforced Stand-by mode in the usual manner by pressing
S1, S2 or S3 for a short while.
Pronto! is a Windows CE device and as such is never completely shut down.
If, however, the device is shut down completely following a power cut or
System reset (on/off button), some loss of data is to be expected. Warning of
a complete shutdown is given in the form of a clear falling two-tone signal.
