Auto Repeat And The Slow Keys Setting - Alphasmart NEO2 SmartApplet User Manual

Auto Repeat and the Slow Keys Setting

You can also change
the Auto Repeat
setting in
AlphaSmart Manager. When
you click the Settings tab and
click System on the left, the
available settings that you can
change on the right will
include Auto Repeat. Click On
or Off.
You can also set Sticky Keys from within AlphaWord Plus by following these
steps:
1. Press option- -K.
2. Press 2 to turn Sticky Keys on or off.
3. Press esc to exit the screen and return to your work.
Auto Repeat lets you set whether keys repeat when held down. Usually if you
press and hold a character key for an extended period of time, the letter
continually repeats itself across the screen. You can change this behavior so
that keys won't repeat. This is helpful for beginning typists or for users who
have difficulty typing. For example, if you're administering an activity to a
group of users whose typing skills are at a beginning level, you can turn off
Auto Repeat so they aren't penalized for holding down a key longer than
normal.
When Auto Repeat is on (the default setting), a character repeats when a key
is held down; when it's off, only one character appears per keystroke.
Though the Auto Repeat setting is related to the Slow Keys setting, this
setting is not in the Control Panel. To turn Auto Repeat on or off while using
AlphaWord Plus, follow these steps:
1. Press option- -K.
2. Press 1 to turn auto repeat on or off.
3. Press esc to exit the screen and return to your work.
