Orbit Reader 40 – User Guide
Version 1.9
Pressing the Select key opens the root of the directory of the chosen drive. When
you press the Select key on the SD card drive, it opens the root directory of the
SD card and shows the list of files available on the SD card. Pressing Dot 7 will
take you back to the top level in the file manager. Press the Down arrow key to
go to the USB drive and press Select. This opens the root directory of the
external flash drive connected to the USB host port.
When there is no flash drive connected to the USB host port, the display shows
"USB drive [No media]". Similarly, it shows "SD card [No media]" when there is
no SD card inserted.
Inserting a flash drive into the USB Host port shows the message "USB drive
inserted" and it shows the message "USB drive removed" when you remove it.
If you are browsing the contents of the flash drive and remove it from the USB
Host port, the File Manager takes you to the top directory of the file manager.
You can copy files between SD card and USB drive using available commands.

13.2 File Manager Commands

The following are the commands which you can use in the File Manager. Most of
the commands for files also work for folders.
To open a file or folder, press select or Dot 8. Pressing Select or Dot 8 opens the
file or folder.
To go to previous or next file or folder, press Up or Down Arrow. Pressing Up or
Down Arrow moves to the previous or next file in the list.
To go back one folder level, press Dot 7. Dot 7 acts like a "back" key to exit the
current activity. If you are already in File Manager, pressing Dot 7 moves back
one level where you have multiple subfolders open. If you are at the root level,
Dot 7 does nothing. If you are in one of the columns of information, for example,
size or date, then pressing Dot 7 returns to filename.
To move through file information, press Left or Right Arrow. This command
moves you through the file information by headings. See Error! Reference
source not found. section for more information.
To open the Menu, press select + Up Arrow. Pressing Select + Up Arrow opens
the Menu.
To scroll text, press Left or Right Panning keys. If the file name is longer than the
display, panning left or right displays more of the file name. When you get to the
end of the file name, pressing the panning key moves you to the next item of file
information, like position, size, date, and so on.
