8.5 Call up Values, Stand by and wake up Pronto!

Time has now passed and you may want to know what time it is. Press the outermost right system
button (S4) briefly and you will be told the time. Press this button briefly twice and you will be told
the date. If you press the system button for too long, instead of getting the time, you will hear a
faint signal and Pronto! will switch to standby-mode. Even when Pronto! is 'sleeping', however, you
can hear the time and date by pressing S4 briefly.
How do you wake up Pronto! again and return to your document? Press the left outermost system
button (S1) for a few seconds. If you do not press it long enough, Pronto! will continue 'sleeping'
and you will be told the temperature. Press S1 briefly twice and you will be told the air pressure.
Only by pressing S1 for long enough will Pronto! wake up and return you to your short text in Word
Processor.
If Pronto! is speaking too loudly or too softly, you can adjust the volume in increments. Press
simultaneously the small system button at the far right (S4) and one of the Braille keys. To set the
volume at an average level press the Braille key B4 with S4. The maximum volume can be set by
pressing S4 and B8. The speech output will be turned off and on by pressing S4 with B7. The volume
can be adjusted with S4 and a Braille key when the speech output is switched either on or off.
Press S4 together with Braille keys B3 and B7 to select soft values, and S4 with B6 and B8 to select
louder values.

8.6 Help

How do you save your text and open a new empty document or another file, for example the
manual?
Pronto!'s help files can assist here in the form of the automatic Quick Help and the more detailed
context sensitive Long Help. Quick Help provides information on the highlighted element in a menu
or dialog which will be given automatically over the speech output connected to the spoken
element description. For more detailed information about the element and its functions, open Long
Help by pressing "B2B6 and the left thumb key". Long Help will now be read out, and it can be read
on the Braille display by scrolling with the display keys D5 and D2. If the help is to be read out again,
go down with the Navistick to the "OK" button and back up to the help text. Press the left thumb
key to close Long Help, and you will be taken back to the previously highlighted element.

Braille keys B3 and B5 together with the left thumb key. (all command menus can be called up with
