The left or right Triple Action Key's (Up) position also serves as a reading key to move
backward within the text and will be referred to as [TLU] or [TRU] in the list below. The left
or right Triple Action Key's (Down) position also serves as a reading key to move forward
through the text and are referred to as [TLD] or [TRD] in the list below. In the event of the
right as well as the left Triple Action Key (Up) can be pressed, it is called [TU]. If
alternatively, the Triple Action Key left or right (Down) can be used, this is called [TD].
The centre position of either the left or right Triple Action Key [TLC] and [TRC] can be
used for additional functions.

If you move along the right side of the housing towards the back, you will first feel the main
power button. Located behind the power button is a USB type A port to connect a USB
keyboard. Behind the USB type A port is the outlet for the power supply.
On the left side of the device are from the front to the back
– another USB type A port to
connect a USB keyboard, a slot with a microSD card and a USB type B port to connect a
PC. The microSD card is used exclusively for the internal software, this means the internal
menu and the Bluetooth functionality. Please do not remove the microSD card at any time
from the device while it is on. Data on the card can be damaged. Please turn the Connect
Braille off, before you insert or remove the microSD card.
Left on the back side you find a round headphone plug (2.5 mm) to connect a headphone
or an external loudspeaker. This headphone jack is for internal tones only, that means it
cannot be used for screen reader sounds.
