Words/Sentences for Presentation
The lower part of the Speech display shows the words from the selected word
list. The words on the list may be presented by selecting the word with the
mouse, by using the navigation buttons on the device (and the Word Nav option
from the Navigation Menu) to highlight the word and pressing the present button.
When a word is being presented, the background of the selected word will be
highlighted in yellow. As the words are scored by pressing the correct or
incorrect button, the correct word cells are colored green and the incorrect word
cells are colored red. If more words are on the list than can be displayed,
additional pages are used. This is indicated in the top right area of the word list
title bar. There are up/down arrows that allow movement between pages using
the mouse. When the last word on the list is presented the next page will be
displayed. Using the navigation buttons on the instrument you can move to the
next page by pressing the down or right navigation key on the last word in the
list. You may also select additional word lists without resetting the score.
Pressing the Store button, resets the percent score and stores all relevant speech
data in the table.
