Dual Switch Step Scanning Setup And Use - AbleNet Blue2 User Manual

13. Speaking Rate: Speaking Rate controls how quickly something is read back when Speech is turned
on.
14. Included Menu Items: While scanning, a user can bring up a menu of items with additional actions.
You can simplify this menu by removing categories of items. For maximum usability of Switch Control,
leave all Menu Items active.
15. Group Items: By default the scan will move one item at a time across a screen. If a user would like to
speed up their scan, you can turn Group Items on. When Group Items are on, the scan will put items
on the screen into groups. The user will then be able to move from group to group, select a group, and
then select an item within that group. This is similar to traditional row/column scanning that is used in
other programs.
16. Large Cursor: Turning Large Cursor on will increase the size of the border that the scan uses. This
makes it more obvious and easier to follow the scan across the screen.
17. Cursor Color: You can change the color of the scan border to make it more visible on the screen as it
moves.
18. Saved Gestures: You can create custom gestures and make them accessible through the menu that
appears when a user double clicks while scanning with Auto Tap on.
