First start up
After the device has been installed, you test whether it works. You switch on the EasyReader. (see next
chapter – Switching on/off)
When starting for the first time you will see the language menu. Please read "Adding voices or languages
and adjusting the brightness" in this manual for further instructions.
Chapter 3 : General operation
After having successfully connected and tested the EasyReader, we will now go into the controls and the
operation of the EasyReader.
Switching on/off
Switch on the reader by briefly pressing the red on/off button. This red button is at the far left. Soon after,
you will hear a beep that confirms it is switched on. As soon as the reader reports that it is ready for use,
you can start.
In order to switch off the reader press the red on/off button again. The reader then reports the battery
status. Pressing a second time switches the reader off.
Volume and reading speed
Just to the right below the red on/off button there are keys for the volume and reading speed. They are in a
group of four buttons. In order to adjust the volume, press briefly on one of the blue arrow keys to the left.
The top key increases the volume and the bottom key reduces the volume. In order to change the reading
speed, press briefly on one of the other two blue arrow keys. These keys are to the right of the volume
keys. You increase the speed with the top key and reduce the reading speed with the bottom key.
Scanning
In order to read out a text you must first scan it. Put the page on the glass plate with the text facing
downwards. Then press briefly on the scan button. This is the blue square button at the top in the middle.
After a short while the reader begins to read out the scanned text.
Scanning methods
In normal mode the reader will automatically use column recognition, and the columns will be read starting
from the top-left column, after which the reader will navigate to the right column by column. When reading
invoices and bank statements, this will sometimes not yield the desired result. If you press the scan key,
the square button in the middle of the reader, for a while then the text will be scanned again but this time
without column recognition. Remember that the lines will now be read over the page width.
