Starting And Pausing A Book; Navigating In A Book - Bones Milestone 212 Ace User Manual

3.1. Starting and pausing a book

Make sure that the „Books" application is active on your Milestone 212 Ace and press the
„Play" button to start reading a book. Playback of the book will start after a brief clicking
sound. To pause playback, press the „Play" button again. Please refer to chapter 3.3.
„Selecting a book", to find out how to choose other available books from your library.
Hint: Please note that DAISY 3.0 and EPUB book formats take a few seconds to initialize
additional navigation options. You can start the book immediately, while further options will
become available, once the initialization process is complete.

3.2. Navigating in a book

Instead of simply reading a book from beginning to end, you may want to skip chapters,
dip in and out of different sections or create bookmarks. The available options depend on
the the formatting of the book you're reading. You can flick through the available
navigation options by pressing either „Rec" to advance or „Mode" to go back.
Assuming you select the option „Phrase Jump", you can then use the arrow keys to
navigate phrase by phrase. If you press the „Left Arrow" button, you'll be taken to the start
of the current phrase. If you press the „Left Arrow" button twice, you'll be located at the
beginning of the previous phrase. Pressing the „Right arrow" key lets you jump to the next
phrase and by pressing it twice, you'll jump 2 phrases ahead.
The arrow buttons work the same way as above for every navigation option.
Please keep in mind, that the available options for navigation always depend on the book's
format and on whether and how accurately markers have been set by its producers.
The following list is an overview of all available navigation options, assuming the book is
formatted accordingly:

Jump to next or previous phrase by using the arrow buttons. A
phrase is the shortest distance you can navigate and usually
means one whole sentence. However, the exact definition
depends on how each book was formatted by its publisher.
While time jump is selected, you can advance or rewind 2
minutes, by pressing either the left or right arrow button.
Jump to either the beginning or to the end of the book with the
arrow buttons, when you've selected this navigation option.
Select your bookmarked positions by using the arrow buttons.
While in „Bookshelf", pick an available book from your library by
pressing the right or the left arrow button and press "Play" to start.
Activate the sleep timer by pressing the "Right arrow" button and
deactivate it, by pressing "Left arrow". Once you've activated it,
you can set the time after which the device will enter sleep mode
by using the navigation option described below this one. The
current reading position will be saved before entering sleep mode.
