4. File Manager
4.1 Overview
The functions and structures of the “File manager” on the Braille Sense
U2 are very similar to the “file manager” on a personal computer. In
order to run the “file manager,” press “f (dots 1-2-4)” or press “Enter”
when you are on “file manager” in the “program” menu.
The “File manager” includes an “address window” and a “file list.” When
you open the “file manager,” the disk name will appear. The default disk
name is “flashdisk.” You can use the up and down arrows (“Space-1” or
“Space-4”) or the scroll buttons to explore additional disks. Press “Enter”
on the disk you want to open. The Braille Sense U2 will show you the list
of the files or folders on the disk you have opened.
When you press “tab (Space-4-5 or F3)” or “shift-tab (“Space-1-2” or
“Space-F3”)” on the “file list,” you will enter into an “address window.”
For your convenience, the “File manager” provides you with menus and
“hot keys.” The menus will appear when you press “Space-m (dots 1-3-
4)” or “F2.”
It is possible to format the flashdisk, which will erase everything on the
flashdisk. Be extremely cautious when executing this command. If you
execute this command, you will loose all of your data. You will
NOT
be
able to get this data back once the command has been executed. To
format the flashdisk, press “Space-1-2-3.” While holding down “Space-1-
2-3,” quickly press and release the reset button. Continue pressing
“Space-1-2-3” until you hear the flashdisk formatting.
4.1.1 Navigating the File List
There are two kinds of lists that you will see when using the Braille
Sense U2. The lists are: “file list” and the “menu list.” When you reach
the end of the “menu list,” the Braille Sense U2 will automatically bring
