6. Getting started.


You should now be ready to get started with using your PLEXTALK. This

chapter gives you information about the terminology used throughout

the guide, what you should expect to receive, the physical layout of

PLEXTALK, how to connect the battery and power cable, how to turn the

unit off and on and how to insert and eject CDs and CF cards. It also
describes how to use the Key lock/Key describer function which can be

extremely useful for beginners, to help them learn the layout of the keys.

6.1. Terminology and conventions used in this guide.


This section details the terminology and conventions used throughout

this guide. The items are listed in no specific order and are as follows:

• NOTE: A note is used to denote an additional piece of information,

a tip or an important point not already mentioned. Generally these
are written immediately after the instructions to which they refer.

• REMINDER: A reminder is used to remind you about information

that has already been given in another section of the guide that

you may not have read recently. Reminders are generally written

before the information to which they refer.

• CF Card: PLEXTALK is able to use both “CF Type I” (Compact Flash)

and “CF Type II” (Micro drive) cards. In this User’s Guide, both
compact flash cards and micro drives are called “CF cards”.

• Most of the instructions in this guide are detailed for when

PLEXTALK is operating in Normal mode. The differences between

Normal mode and Book Creator mode are dealt with in Chapter 19.

• All key names and function names have been written with initial

capitals.

• Menu options have been written with double quotes around the

menu option names and an initial capital has been used.

• In order to make the listing of instructions more concise, they do

not always detail everything that PLEXTALK says. In many

situations, the meaning of PLEXTALK's guide speech is given rather

than the exact wording. In all cases, the method of using the
feature or function should be clear.
