3.3.2  Dot Pressure Property Sheet 

In the second property sheet you can adjust the dot pressure. The dot pressure is the 
degree of hardness and force of the Braille dots. Lowering the dot pressure will 
decrease the power consumption and sound level of the Braille Voyager. By default 
the dot pressure is set to 65%. 

 

3.3.3  Navigation Key Property Sheet 

The Windows navigation key is placed on the front of the unit in the middle under an 
angle of 75 degrees (to avoid accidental hitting). This key can best be operated with 
your thumb. By pressing the right side of the key (feel the indent) you will perform a 
Tab (default).  By pressing the left side of the key (feel the other indent) you will 
perform a Shift-Tab (default). You can also use this key to perform arrow up and 
arrow down by pressing the ridge up and the ridge down (default). 
 
The “Nav. Key” property sheet gives you the option of changing the action performed 
by the Windows navigation key. There are 4 options:
