you are editing a document, for example, the context menu includes options to work with the text you
are editing. Context menus customize their options based on both what you are doing and what state the
activity is in. If, for example, you had selected some text before opening the context menu, it would also
include options related to working with selected text such as copying, cutting, or pasting.
To use the context menu, press and hold the Select button.
Not every activity or control includes a context menu. If the activity does not have a context menu,
nothing happens when you hold Select.
About Networks
Braille Plus is a tool designed for connectivity, and it offers several ways to get online. You may use
either Wi-Fi or the cellular network or both.
Your choice of which method to use depends on several factors.
In general, even if you use a cellular network, you will likely wish to use Wi-Fi for most Internet related
activities. Wi-Fi is faster, and it is generally much less expensive. The disadvantage of Wi-Fi is that it
only works close to a "hot spot." Hot spots are Internet access points provided by wireless routers, either
in your home or at a commercial or governmental facility such as a coffee shop or library.
Cellular networks, on the other hand, provide access wherever the network reaches.
For the simplest operation, keep the Wi-Fi radio turned on. The system automatically uses the preferred
Wi-Fi network if it is available.
Wi-Fi
To use Wi-Fi networks, you must first connect to them. This procedure is needed only once per hot spot.
In other words, if you have networks set up at home and at school, you configure them each once, then
you may use them without further action. Likewise, each time you travel to a new area with Wi-Fi
access, you connect to that network once, then you may use it from then on.
Notifications
Normally, when you move into an area covered by an open Wi-Fi network, Braille Plus notifies you by
posting a notification. Many people do not want to be bothered with such notifications, and these can be
turned off if you do not want them.
To connect to a network in the notification list, follow these steps:
1. Open the Home screen by pressing the Home key. The unit responds by showing the Home
screen.
2. Press Menu.
3. Select Notifications.
4. Press Down Arrow until you get to the notification that informs you about the open Wi-Fi
network. It provides the name of the network.
5. Press Select. Braille Plus opens the Wi-Fi connection screen. This screen provides the name of the
