9. Introduction to the menu system.
A number of the features of PLEXTALK are accessed through the built in
menu system. This chapter aims to give you an understanding of how the
menu is structured and how you access it. It is not essential to read it
immediately but you will find that an understanding of the menu system
is useful in many of the chapters that follow.
9.1. Overview of the menu and its operation.
Although you only ever hear the menu, it can be thought of as being a
hierarchical menu system containing a series of horizontal menus, each
accessed from the level higher up. At the highest level there is the Main
Menu which has 10 items. These are:
• Edit - this allows simple editing of a DAISY recording.
• Backup - for backing up data from disc to CF card or vice versa.
• Recording Settings - allows you to select from a variety of
recording settings or to set your own customised settings.
• Playing Settings - allows you to specify how you want to listen to
the information on the CD or CF card.
• Bookmark - allows you to specify how voice bookmarks play or to
delete all bookmarks.
• Power On Timer - allows you to specify 2 times when PLEXTALK will
power on automatically.
• Notepad - keep short voice notes including an alarm feature.
• Calculator - carry out simple mathematical calculations (not
scientific).
• Media Management - allows you to get media information, finalise
CDs, format CD-RW discs or erase CF card data.
• Control panel - allows you to get system information and to control
the way certain features operate or play.
NOTE: Access to some of the above menu items will depend on the type
of operation and media that you are working with at that time. The
PLEXTALK will not let you access features that are not appropriate at that
