the [TRC] key lets you move on to the date,

is shown, followed by the date in English
or continental format, depending on the choice in the

confirm it by pressing the [TRC] key. When the year has been set, pressing the [TRC] key

(S)topwatch
The
(S)topwatch
feature means you can measure any time duration in hours, minutes and
seconds. An
'[X]'
preceding the most recently stopped time indicates that the stopwatch is
running. To start and stop the stopwatch, press the [SPC] key. The stopwatch automatically
starts running from 0 when you release this key. The stopwatch can be reset by entering
[SPC+7 8]. You can also start and stop the stop watch by pressing the CR key above the
time displayed or the checkbox.
You can quit the Stopwatch display by pressing either [TRC] or [TLC]. This means the
stopwatch will continue to run in the background while you work on your notes or in PC
Mode.

c(O)untdown
The countdown feature can be used to set any time period up to 24 hours in hours, minutes
and seconds. After starting the countdown function, the countdown period will begin to count
down. When 0 has been reached, a rhythmic alarm will be emitted until you shut it off by
entering [SPC+7 8]. At the same time,
'Countdown alarm'
is displayed on the Braille
display. This message remains on the Braille display even after the sound has been shut off
until you press [TLC].
When you select this menu item,
'CD time: 00:00:00'
is displayed. As before, dots 7 and 8
will blink at the location of the hour, which is changed by pressing the [TU] and [TD] keys.
To switch to the minutes setting, you may press either [TRC] or [SPC+8]. Entering [SPC+7]
will move you to the previous setting. Minutes and seconds are changed in the same way
as hours with the [TD] and [TU] keys. After setting the seconds and then pressing the [TRC]
key, the countdown is initiated. You can recognize this by the
'[X]'
preceding the display
showing the remaining amount of time.
To stop the countdown and reset the countdown time, press [SPC+7 8]. You can also start
and stop the countdown by pressing the [CR] key above the time displayed or the checkbox.
If the countdown time has reached 0 and you press [TRC], you can enter a new countdown
time.

(M)usikBraille
MusikBraille is the first Braille music Editor that not only plays each note as you type it, but
also as you read, using ATC technology. Because MusikBraille is an Editor, it behaves
similar as described in chapter 5.1.2 (F)ile. You can edit, read, copy, delete, rename etc.
music files, as well as create, open, copy, move and rename folders. In the application
MusikBraille only music files and folders are displayed, no text documents or any other files.
