PageFlip Butterfly User Guide10. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
When is the Autorepeat mode appropriate?
The Firefly and Dragonfly pedals feature an Autorepeat switch that can
be used to emit a rapid succession of commands as long as the pedal is
pressed down. Turn on Autorepeat if you are interested in fast browsing
or scrolling. Turn off Autorepeat to avoid multiple pages from turning at
once if you inadvertently press the pedal too long. It is therefore best to
turn off Autorepeat during a performance.
Can I use the virtual iPad keyboard and the pedal at the same time?
Press the current mode (CM) button, which lies next to the blinking light,
to eject/hide the virtual keyboard. After you press the CM button once,
you will be able to access the virtual keyboard to enter text whenever you
need it for the duration of your session. Test it by tapping into a text field
and confirming that the virtual keyboard appears on the screen.
Can the pedal withstand rugged abuse?
All PageFlip pedals are made of highly durable plastic that can withstand
stomping and rugged use. The pedals were designed to meet these criti-
cal requirements for our most demanding users.
What can I do to see the pedal more clearly in low-light situations?
The black pedal may be hard to see when using it in dim lighting. Firefly
and Dragonfly users can simply turn on the Light switch on the front panel
to illuminate the pedals. Butterfly users can try to apply fluorescent self-
adhesive tape to the pedals to make it glow in the dark. The Firefly dual
pedal and Dragonfly quad pedal are the best choices for users who play
in dim venues.
Why the names "Butterfly," "Firefly," and "Dragonfly"?

ful wings inspired the pedal’s sleek design. The PageFlip Firefly features
