Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Polyana-JT. Polyana-JT is a communication
device that delivers loud, clear, speech output for those who type or scan. The
Polyana-JT is based upon a high performance
Windows CE, mini-computer, which is also
small, lightweight and has a bright, easy-to-read
display.
Persona is the communication software that runs
on the Polyana-JT and speaks the text aloud as
it is entered. Persona provides assistive
features such as word prediction/word
completion, abbreviation-expansion,
pronunciation, Sticky Keys and more to
help reduce the time and effort
required for creating real-time
communication.
Persona is divided into two modes of
operation, Keyboard and Scan modes. The
Keyboard Mode is for typing on the physical keyboard.
Scan Mode is for selecting from an on-screen keyboard using an
external scan switch.
The Polyana-JT does not have a touch screen.
NOTE:
Turning On the Unit

minute for the Windows Desktop to appear before using the device.
does not start automatically, start Persona by clicking on the
Persona
menu item or by double-clicking on the Persona Desktop icon, if it
exists.
DO NOT click repeatedly on the Persona icon. It may take up to 15
NOTE:
seconds before seeing the Persona splash screen.
Persona will start up in either the Keyboard mode or Scan mode, depending
upon the mode Persona was in when the program was last used.
If you prefer not to wait a few minutes for Polyana-JT to turn on
NOTE:
and for Persona to load, then we recommend that Polyana-JT not
be turned off. Refer to Sleep Mode (Page 6).
