If you notice missing
characters or
jumbled text, you
might need to slow down the
transfer speed for NEO. To
change the speed for one
NEO, press option-z-S. To
change it for several NEOs,
use AlphaSmart Manager 2.
Printing Reports
If you chose to print the report, follow these steps:
1. Connect the NEO to your printer using a USB cable, or put the NEO in
range of an IR printer.
2. Press print. KeyWords will inform you that the NEO is connected to your
printer; then, it will send the report and go back to the report options
screen.
3. Press esc until you return to the KeyWords main screen.
Sending Reports
If you chose to send the report to your computer, follow these steps:
1. On your computer, open the program and file that you want to send the
report to. Make sure your cursor is in the file so that it is active. For best
formatting results, choose a fixed-width or monospace font like Courier;
these fonts make the columns and header information line up correctly.
2. Using a USB cable, connect the NEO to your computer.
3. Press send. The text will appear in the file you had open.
4. Press esc until you return to the KeyWords main screen.
Transferring Reports to AlphaWord Plus
When you transfer a KeyWords report to AlphaWord Plus, you save it to one
of the existing file spaces (file 1–file 8). Any text that is already in the file you
choose will be overwritten.
This is a quick way to see reports right on the NEO. However, because the
NEO screen is not as wide as a computer screen or printer page, the report
will wrap across several lines, making it hard to read onscreen. If you transfer
the file to a computer or printer, the report will return to its proper
formatting.
If you have a SmartOption Cart with several NEOs connected, saving reports
to an AlphaWord Plus file is also useful because you can use AlphaSmart
Manager to retrieve the files from all connected NEOs at the same time. Then,
you can view, save, or print the reports from your computer.
If you choose to transfer a report to an AlphaWord Plus file, follow these
steps:
1. Type the file number that you want to send the report to.
