4 The Front Panel
On the far left of the front panel is located a 3-position slide switch. This is the key
"Lock" switch. This switch is explained in more detail in section 2.11 of this
manual.
To the right of it is another 3-position slide switch. This is the "Media Mode" switch,
and determines which type of content the front panel buttons control. This switch
is explained in more detail in the next chapter.
To the right of the "Media Mode" switch, are five buttons, with a dot on the center
one. These buttons control media and DAISY playback as well as providing
shortcut keys for other areas of the unit when they are set to Application Mode.
As explained above, the type of content controlled by these buttons depends on
the position of the "Media Mode" switch. These five buttons are explained further
in subsequent chapters of this manual.
To the right of the media buttons is the Power button. To turn on the unit, press
and hold this button until you hear a beep and feel a vibration. The first time you
power on the unit, it will take some time to boot up.
Once the unit boots, you can press the Power button quickly to put the unit in
standby "screen off" mode. This is similar to locking the screen on a phone or
tablet. Press it quickly again to unlock it and return to the position at which you
entered Screen off Mode. Press and hold the Power button to completely power
down the system.
