Sending Files, Rubrics, or Write On! Lessons to NEOs

4. Click the Save drop-down list
• All Files. Saves all eight files from your NEO(s).
• Checked Items. Saves only the files you checked.
• File #. Saves only that numbered file.
5. If you have more than one NEO connected, click the From drop-down list
and choose the NEO(s) to save files from.
6. Click Save (Windows) or Choose (Macintosh). The file(s) are saved as
text files in the location you specified, in the AlphaSmart USB folder. If
that location already has files that were previously saved, you may be
asked if you want to replace the files.
In AlphaSmart Manager, you can send text files to NEOs. You can also create
or select assignment rubrics or select Write On! lessons to send to your NEOs.
Warning! Before you send anything to your NEO, it's important to know
that once you begin sending files (or SmartApplets or settings) to your NEO,
you need to let AlphaSmart Manager complete the send before disconnecting
your NEO from your computer. If you don't, you run the risk of corrupting
system files on your NEO.
AlphaSmart Manager can send files you've created on your computer to
NEOs. You can compose text in another program and paste or drag it into
AlphaSmart Manager, or you can type text directly into AlphaSmart Manager.
If your computer is connected to a group of NEOs through an AlphaHub on a
SmartOption cart, you can send the files to all connected NEOs or just specific
NEOs you select.
Follow these steps to send a file to NEOs:
1. In AlphaSmart Manager, click the AlphaWord Files to Send tab.
2. Check the box next to the number of the file to which you want to send
text ( A on the next page). Note that any existing text in the file on the
NEO will be overwritten.
