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

3.1. Starting and pausing a book

Make sure you are in the application "Books". Press the "Play" button to start the reading
of a book. A ticking sound signalizes that searching process started. Milestone 212 looks
for books on the SD memory card. It starts the first book it can find. To pause the playback
of the book press "Play" again. To select between all available books please have a look
under "Selecting a book".
Attention: Please be aware that DAISY 3.0 and EPUB books require to initialize a book.
Milestone does this process in parallel. So you can immediately start reading the book with
limited navigation options. The full range of options is added after a short time.

3.2. Navigating in a book

Instead of having to listen to a book linearly from beginning to end you have multiple
navigation options, though they differ slightly depending on the precise formatting of the
book. You can use "Rec" and "Mode" to check what kind of navigation options are
available. Press "Rec" to go up in the list and "Mode" to go down in the list.
Let us assume you go to the option "Phrase jump". Now you can use the arrow buttons to
navigate phrase by phrase. If you press the "Left arrow" you jump back to the start of the
current phrase. If you press it twice you jump at the start of the previous phrase et cetera.
If you use the "Right arrow" you jump to the next phrase. If you press it twice you jump
forward 2 phrases. So in every option you can use the arrow buttons to navigate or make a
selection.
Again, please keep in mind that, which navigation options are available depends on the
format of the book and on how accurately it has been marked up by its producers. Here is
a list of all available navigation options:
Navigation option
Phrase jump
Time jump
Beginning or end
of book
Bookmarks
Bookshelf

Jump to next or previous phrase by using the arrow buttons. A
phrase is the smallest navigation possibility and for example may
correspond to a sentence. The exact definition depends how the
book was published.
Jump 2 minutes of reading in the desired direction by using the
arrow buttons.
Jump to the beginning or to the end of the book by using the arrow
buttons.
Select previously inserted bookmarks by using the arrow buttons.
Scroll between all available books by pressing the right or the left
arrow button. Press "Play" to start a book.
Activate sleep timer by pressing the "Right arrow" button. By
pressing the "Left arrow" button sleep timer is deactivated. With
sleep timer Milestone 212 will pause playback at the desired time.
Afterwards it will wait for 10 minutes. If there is no further input it
will turn off automatically. The reading position is saved.
