Orbit Reader 20 Plus – User guide
The default setting for Bluetooth is Auto. If there is any screen reader activity
running on the paired device, the Orbit Reader 20 Plus automatically switches to
Bluetooth Remote mode. If you do not want an automatic Bluetooth connection,
switch to manual option. To disable Bluetooth completely, select OFF. To select
another option, press select or Dot 8.
For more information, see the
Remote Mode.

Pair (Just Works)

The Pair menu item selects a Bluetooth pairing scheme. The Orbit Reader 20
Plus uses the selected scheme when it responds to a Bluetooth pairing request
from a host device. To select the option, press Select or Dot 8.
The two choices are:
Just Works – This is the default Bluetooth pairing scheme. When using this
scheme, the Orbit Reader 20 Plus automatically pairs to any device that sends a
pairing request.
Confirm code – This is the most secure pairing scheme. With this scheme, the
Orbit Reader 20 Plus responds to pairing requests by showing a random number
on both the Orbit Reader 20 Plus's braille display and on the host device. To
confirm the request, ensure that the numbers match and press Dot 8 on the Orbit
Reader 20 Plus. To reject the pairing request, press Dot 7.

Emulate (Off)

The Emulation option allows you to choose how the device appears to the Host
screen reader applications while operating in Remote mode. If RB18
(Refreshabraille 18™) Emulation mode is selected, the Orbit Reader 20 Plus
appears as a Refreshabraille 18 and only the first 18 cells are used. If Emulation
mode is Off, it appears as Orbit Reader 20 Plus. To select the option, press
Select or Dot 8.
The default setting for Emulation mode is Off.

Mode (Stand-Alone)

By default, the Orbit Reader 20 Plus operates in Stand-Alone mode where you
read and write files stored on the SD card. To specifically set the unit to another
mode, select among Remote, BT (for Bluetooth,) or USB. the Orbit Reader 20
Plus tries to automatically switch to Bluetooth or USB depending on screen
reader activity, but if you want to, for instance, specifically switch back to Stand-
Alone mode from Remote mode, or switch the interface from Bluetooth to USB,
use this option. To select the option, press Select or Dot 8.
