Connecting a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse

Note: In the future, you will be able to use other wireless devices with your
Pepper Pad.  These instructions are for a Bluetooth keyboard; the basic
process for making a connection between a Bluetooth device and a Pepper
Pad is the same for all devices.

To use a Bluetooth keyboard with your Pepper Pad 3:

1. Put your keyboard in Discovery mode. For instructions, see your 

keyboard documentation.

2. Tap the Bluetooth icon in the Setting tab in the Pepper application.
3. Follow the instructions on the Bluetooth Setup page.

Getting Help

The Pepper Pad is easy to use and you probably will not need help very 
often, but you may appreciate you Pepper Pad more quickly if you take a 
few minutes to familiarize yourself with what Help has to offer.

There is Help for the Pepper Pad itself and for each application. Just look 
for the help tabs. This section gives a brief overview of the Help tab in the
Pepper application.

The Help tab in the Pepper application gives you instructions for using your
Pepper Pad and an overview of features that are common to most of the 
applications. It also contains hints for troubleshooting problems that may occur.

There is a report page in this Help tab that you can send to Pepper Support via
the Internet when you have questions, problems, suggestions or praise.  Our
users’ experiences are very important to us and we hope to hear from you.

In Help, you will find your software license, a privacy policy and acknowledge-
ments of third-party software used by Pepper products.

Using Instant Messaging

The Pepper Pad provides two kinds of instant messaging in the Talk applica-
tion; AOL IM and Local Network IM.  When you are logged onto either IM, its
icon is displayed on the lower right of the screen.  Tap either icon to see the
settings. Tap the Talk icon on the Applications page to launch the application.

AOL Instant Messaging

Note: If you did not enter the AOL IM information during setup, tap the IM
icon in the Settings tab in the chat application, and follow the instructions.

If you had an AOL Instant Messaging account before you got your Pepper
Pad, your buddy lists are imported to the Pepper Pad when you enter your
AOL Screen Name and password and sign on.

If you are new to AOL IM, once you have a Screen Name and Password and
log on, you can set up buddy lists, send instant messages, and invite people
for chats.

You can have only one AOL IM session running at a time using the same
Screen Name.  Therefore, if you are logged on from your Pepper Pad and you
log onto AOL IM from a computer with the same Screen Name, you will be
logged out of the AOL IM session on your Pepper Pad.  Conversely, if you are
logged onto AOL IM from a computer and log on from your Pepper Pad, you
will be logged out of the other AOL IM session.

Local Network Instant Messaging

Everyone on your network who is using a Pepper Pad or a Pepper Desktop
program is automatically a member of your local IM group.  The members of
this group who can receive local messages have a local chat icon next to their
names in the IM window on your Pepper Pad.

Using a keyboard and mouse

Note: A keyboard and mouse are optional devices that may be used with a
Pepper Pad.

For entering large amounts of text, you can use a keyboard with your Pepper
Pad. For navigation and selection, you can use a mouse.

You can use a wireless Bluetooth keyboard or mouse. You can also connect a
keyboard or mouse to your Pepper Pad via the USB port. With a USB hub, 
you can connect both a keyboard and a mouse at the same time.
