You can set the left and right sets of scroll keys independently in the
"Global Options". (See chapter 3.)
Near the top center of the unit's top panel, is a liquid crystal display (LCD).
The LCD displays the output of the unit visually so that a sighted person
can see what is shown on the Braille Sense U2 QWERTY. STEREO
speakers are located one on each side of the LCD for audio output.
To the right of the LCD, along the top edge of the unit, there are 4 LED
lights. The far left LED light shows wireless LAN status; when wireless LAN
is on, this LED light turns blue. The next LED indicates Bluetooth status;
again, when Bluetooth is activated, this LED light turns blue. The third LED
light shows the status of the GPS receiver; when you are running Sense
Navigation, the LED turns blue (Only available after purchase and
download of a license and map data for Sense Navigation). The LED light
on the far right indicates power status. When the Braille Sense U2
QWERTY is powered on, the LED turns red. These LED lights help a
sighted person easily determine the status of the unit when working with
students. This helps them quickly evaluate whether options need to be
changed for accomplishing current tasks, or if options are activated
unnecessarily, and can be turned off to save power, etc.
1.2.2 The Right Panel
On the right panel, there is a recessed rectangular section containing 2
ports. The port nearest the front of the unit is the USB OTG port. You can
connect your Braille Sense U2 QWERTY to a personal computer via this
USB port, and use it as a Braille terminal for the computer, transfer files to
and from the computer, or to synchronize your calendar and contacts with
Outlook.
Behind the USB OTG port is the AC adapter jack. To charge the unit's
battery or use the Braille Sense U2 QWERTY on AC power, plug the small,
round end of the AC adapter in to this jack, and plug the larger box-like end
in to a standard AC electrical outlet.
