Set IR speed –
The speed utility allows you to slow down the upload rate when sending
data from the QuickPAD Pro to your PC or Mac. Depending on the speed of your
computer and software, QuickPAD may transmit data too quickly and, as a result, some
characters may be lost in the transfer. If you notice that you are losing characters when
transferring data, lower the transmission rate by selecting a lower number in the IR speed
field.

USB Delay –
The second changeable field corresponds to the delay for initializing the
USB interface on your computer. On some computers, it takes up to 10 seconds to
load the USB software drivers. If your USB connection is not activating or if it misses
the beginning of the data transfer, set the USB delay to a higher value.

the screen.

After selecting the CHANGE USER NAME box, enter a new
name (up to 24 characters) and press
ENTER
to save changes and return to the options
menu.
NOTE:
This setting will not change user
mode.
It only changes the actual name
corresponding to the current user.
Change or enter a password –
To change an existing password or enter a new password
corresponding to the current user, select the CHANGE PASSWORD box from the
options menu. You will be prompted to enter a password 5

Change user mode –
There are two user modes supported by QuickPAD Pro: single-user

modes. To change the mode, select the CHANGE USER MODE box from the options
menu and refer to the prompt at the bottom of the screen. Press

the mode.
NOTE:
You can switch back and forth between single-user and multi-user
modes without discarding user profiles. Files created by a user in multi-user mode will be
accessible only to that user, and will not be available in single-user mode. In other words,
