With Extreme Reader, you'll experience unmatched Speech synthesis with TextAloud powered by AT&T Natural Voices(r), exceptional optical character recognition with the latest ABBYY Fine Reader(r) 6.0 software engine, and the ability to read any Daisy formatted books using the VisuAide Victor Reader Soft(r) software. This Manual and Installation Guide is intended for use by technically oriented dealers, rehabilitation professionals, and users. It contains technical information on the Extreme Reader and keypad, as well as, information on how to connect Extreme Reader to a TV or Monitor, if the user desires. Note: Guerilla Technologies Incorporated recommends that the Extreme Reader be plugged into an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) due to the fact that the computer components are susceptible to power surges, fluctuations and power interruptions during operation. Items Packed with Extreme Reader You have purchased a complete Extreme Reader reading system, which includes a keypad, reader and scanner. Other items included: Operator's Manual and Installation Guide - in Print, Operator's Manual and Installation Guide - on floppy disk, one Daisy formatted book on CD and a Scan Test Page (The Quick start guide, located on the Scanner bed.) . {{Pause=1}}..Page 2...Page Break..{{Pause=1}} To Set Up Extreme Reader. Step 1. Unlock the scanner. 1. Place 4 fingers between the scanner and the CPU box at the front of the scanner on each side of the scanner, palms facing up. 2. Slide fingers towards the center of the scanner to break the Velcro bond at the front of the scanner. 3. Once the bond is broken at the front of the scanner the scanner lock is located on the bottom of the scanner about an inch in from the front of the scanner, just left of center. 4. To unlock the scanner, slide the scanner lock to the left, and then lightly press the scanner back down on the CPU box to re-bond the Velcro. 5. You can power up the Extreme Reader after the scanner is unlocked. If you power up the Extreme Reader before the scanner is unlocked the Extreme Reader will not function and you will have to shut down the unit. You may have to use the power button on the CPU if the Keypad does not respond. Note: It's not necessary to lock the Scanner after each use. However, if you move the Scanner any significant distance or return it for service, be sure to re-lock it. To re-lock the Scanner, slide the lock on the bottom if the scanner back to the right. Step 2. System check. Please check all the cable connections in the back of the unit before starting the Extreme Reader for the first time. All the cable connectors are plugged in before shipment and should still be plugged in when you are unpacking the Extreme Reader. The power cable and keypad cable have twist ties to keep the cables bundled for shipment. 1. The scanner has 1 cable for data and power. The small square connector should be plugged in to the socket at the back left hand corner of the scanner when standing in front of the Extreme Reader. This cable is bundled and attached to the back of the unit, please do not pull on the cable. The other end of the scanner cable has a small rectangular plug that is plugged in to the USB socket on the lower left side of the back of the Extreme Reader. 2. The power cord is plugged in to the lower right side of the back of the Extreme Reader when standing in front of the Extreme Reader. There is also a power toggle switch in the back of the Extreme Reader. It is located to the right of where the power cord plugs into the unit on the lower right hand side, when standing in front of the Extreme Reader. {{Pause=1}}..Page 3...Page Break..{{Pause=1}} This switch has a one towards the top of the switch and a zero towards the bottom of the switch and toggles up and down. The correct position for the switch is the top of the switch pressed in towards the unit, this is the on position. This switch is used for shutting off the power to the Extreme Reader if it is not going to be used for a long period of time such as going a trip or vacation. 3. The Keypad plugs into the back of the unit just to the left of the square power cord, in the lower round socket (when standing in front of the Extreme Reader) the upper socket should have a sticker over it so you may not feel it. The flat spot of the keypad cable plug faces up. 4. There is a small round plug for the internal speakers. This should be plugged in to the small round audio socket to the right of the rectangular scanner USB plug and just to the left of the rectangular video socket. There are 3 audio sockets 2 of them should be covered with stickers so you should not be able to feel them. Step 3. Final 1. Once the scanner is unlocked and the cable connections and rear power switch are checked, set the key pad in the desired operating location then plug the Extreme Reader into a wall outlet. Extreme Reader On and Off Start Extreme Reader by pressing the right-most button on the front of the reader. You should hear the fan, inside the system, spin. This will tell you that the reader is booting-up. Boot-up takes about 40 seconds. During boot-up, the Extreme Reader will play the Extreme Reader Welcome message. This message is timed to the software load and indicates when the Extreme Reader is ready for operation. This message ends with the Extreme Reader saying, " Please begin now". Note: Do not press any of the keys on the keypad during boot-up. This will prolong the reader's boot-up phase and may cause the system to re-boot. To turn off Extreme Reader, press the shutdown key on the keypad. You will hear the Extreme Reader Shutdown message as the unit shuts down. When the machine becomes silent, you may disconnect the power source or the power switch on the back of the machine. Do not use the power button on the front of the unit to shut it down unless the Extreme Reader stops responding to the keypad. Using the power button to shut down may damage the software. Note: The Extreme Reader will ask you to confirm shutdown, to avoid inadvertently shutting down the system. {{Pause=1}}..Page 4...Page Break..{{Pause=1}} Keypad layout overview.

Note: Simply press the Help key during speaking to abort the help function. {{Pause=1}}..Page 5...Page Break..{{Pause=1}} Scanning and reading with Extreme Reader 1. Place your reading material print-side down on the scanner glass plate. Square the page against the raised right and front edges of the glass and close the lid. 2. Press the Scan key. Note: You will hear the scanner activate and the scanner carriage move. Extreme Reader will say, "Scanning is complete," when the scan routine has completed. You now have three options: A. Press the Read key to have The Extreme Reader read the page aloud. At any time you may press the Pause/Resume key, to pause or resume reading. Or, press the Stop key, to stop reading aloud. Or, listen to the entire document. You will hear the message "End of File," when the entire document has been read. This document is stored electronically in the first available File folder (for example, File #1) inside the Extreme Reader. The physical paper is no longer needed. You may choose to keep it stored (saved) in the Extreme Reader, indefinitely. This will allow you to read it repeatedly without having to place the sheet of paper ever again on the scanner . You may place another sheet of reading material, print-side down, on the scanner and repeat the process to read the new document. This document will be stored (saved) in the next available File Folder (In this example, File #2) and so on. You may repeat this entire process twenty times. This means you may store or save twenty, single page files before your Extreme Reader's file storage is full. Or. B. Press the Read key to have The Extreme Reader read the page aloud. At any time you may press the Pause/Resume key, to pause or resume reading. Or, press the Stop key, to stop reading aloud. Or, listen to the entire document. You will hear the message "End of File," when the entire document has been read. This document is stored electronically in the first available File folder (for example, File #1) inside the Extreme Reader. You may choose NOT to keep it stored (saved) in the Extreme Reader, indefinitely. To do this, simply press the Erase Key. The Extreme Reader will first ask you, "Are you sure you want to erase this file?" just in case you pressed the erase key by accident. If you are sure, then follow the instruction, "Press the Erase Key again to erase this file." Doing so will empty File Folder #1, and you may then place another sheet of reading material, print-side down, on the scanner and repeat the process to read this new document. This document will be stored (saved) in the first available File Folder (In this example, File #1 since you had erased its previous contents) and your choice to save or erase this new document is, again, yours to make. You may operate your Extreme Reader this way indefinitely, since by erasing each document, you will never fill all twenty, file folders. {{Pause=1}}..Page 6..Page Break..{{Pause=1}} Or. C. Before! pressing the Read key to have The Extreme Reader read aloud the page that you just scanned, place another document on the scanner bed and press the Scan Key again. This will combine the two documents IN THE SAME file folder - the first one as "page one" and the second one as "page two". - You can repeat this last step as many times as you like. For example: If you scan five documents in a row before reading any of the them, then all five will be stored (saved) in the first available file folder (in this example file #1). They will be saved as page one, page two, page three, page four, and page five in the order that they were scanned. This feature is useful when you desire to read a letter, booklet, book or magazine that is several pages long. It allows you to scan all the pages, and then read them all, uninterrupted. It is also useful to combine similar items like recipes, addresses, or other important documents. Once you begin reading any number of pages, the next time you scan a document, it will be stored (saved) as the first page of the next available file folder (in this example, file folder #2). Remember, there are twenty available file folders to store your documents. Once they are all filled, you will need to erase one or more to continue to use your Extreme Reader. In the event that you wish to add another document to an existing file, long after that file had been started or it pages read during a previous session, use the following steps. Navigate to the file folder number where you wish to add your current document. (See Navigating Through Stored Documents in the Extreme Reader in the next section) Place your current document on the scanner as prescribed. Press and HOLD DOWN the Shift Key, then press the Scan. The Extreme Reader will announce "Appending File. Please Wait." Your Current Document will be added as the new last page to that file folder. (in the example above, it would become "page six"). This is useful when adding a new recipe to all your saved recipes, a new address to all your saved addresses, etc. At any time you may press the Pause/Resume key, to pause or resume reading. Or, press the Stop key, to stop reading aloud. Or, listen to the entire document. You will hear the message "End of File," when the entire document has been read. Note: If you are using the display option, the page will be shown in large font and each word will be highlighted as it is read. {{Pause=1}}..Page 7...Page Break..{{Pause=1}} 4. Press the Pause/Resume key at any time to pause or resume reading. 5. Press the Stop key at any time to stop reading aloud. Navigating Through Stored Documents in the Extreme Reader 6. Macro navigation. Navigate through the file folders with the arrow keys located on the second row from the bottom. Pressing the Advance Backward Key will move you backward by file in the reader. Pressing the Advance Forward Key will move you forward by file. (These are the two outer keys). Although there are twenty available file folders, you can only navigate through as many that have stored (saved) documents in them. For example, if you scan and read one document, and then a second one, and then a third one without erasing any of them, then file folders one, two and three have stored documents in them. Pressing the Advance Forward Key will move you from file one to file two. Pressing it again will move you from file two to file three. Pressing the Advance Backward Key will move you back to file two. Pressing it again will then move you back to file one. Each time you press one of these keys, the Extreme Reader will announce which file number you have moved to. If ever the Extreme Reader says, "You have advanced forward or backward as far as you can go," then there are no more files to navigate to in that direction. You are either on the first or last file. Pressing the Backward Key will move you backward, by page, within a file. Pressing the Forward Key will move you forward, by page, within a file. (These are the inner keys). You can navigate by page through any file that has more than one page in it. For Example, pretend that file folder #1 has a one page document in it, and file folder #2 has a six page document in it, and file folder number 3 has a ten page document it. Once you have navigated to file folder #2, or #3, pressing the Forward Key will move you from page one in that file to page two in that same file. Pressing it again will move you from page two in that file to page three in that same file. Pressing the Backward Key will move you back to page two in that same file. Pressing it again will move you back to page one in that same file. Each time you press one of these keys, the Extreme Reader will announce which page number you have moved to. If ever the Extreme Reader says, "You have advanced forward or backward as far as you can go," then there are no more pages to navigate to in that direction. You are either on the first or last file. This will also happen when you are presently on a file that has only one page. Note: As you move by file, the file number will be spoken and the reading will pause. Press the pause/resume key to read the file contents. {{Pause=1}}..Page 8...Page Break..{{Pause=1}} Note: As you move by page, the page number will be spoken and the reading will pause. Press the pause/resume key to read the page contents. 7. Micro navigation. Navigate through the files with the shift key and the arrow keys located on the second row from the bottom. While holding down the Shift Key, pressing the Advance Backward Key or the Advance Forward Key (outer keys) will move you by line within a page or file stored on the Extreme Reader. The Advance Forward Key will move you forward one line at a time until the last line on the last page of a file is reached. The Advance Backward Key will move you backward one line at a time until the first line on the first page of a file is reached. Each time you press one of these keys, the Extreme Reader will read the line that you moved to and then automatically pause after that line is read. To continue from there, simply press the Pause/Resume Key and the Extreme Reader will resume reading. If ever the Extreme Reader says, "You have advanced forward or backward as far as you can go," then there are no more lines to navigate to in that direction. You are either on the first or last line of the document. While holding down the Shift Key, pressing the Backward Key or the Forward Key (inner keys) will move you by word within a page or file stored on the Extreme Reader. The Shift Key + Forward Key will move you forward one word at a time until the last word on the last page of a file is reached. The Shift Key + Backward Key will move you backward one word at a time until the first word on the first page of a file is reached. Each time you press one of these keys, the Extreme Reader will read the word that you moved to and then automatically pause after that word is read. To continue from there, simply press the Pause/Resume Key and the Extreme Reader will resume reading. If ever the Extreme Reader says, "You have advanced forward or backward as far as you can go," then there are no more lines to navigate to in that direction. You are either on the first or last word of the document. 8. Spell function. Use the Spell key, second row from the top, second key in from left, to hear each letter of a word spoken to you. You will hear a "ding" sound when a space or punctuation is encountered, signaling the end of the word. 9. Mode key. Use this key to control the scanning mode to be used. When pressed, it will toggle between column mode and tabular mode and diskette read mode ("Diskette read mode". See Page 10). The default mode is column mode, which is used for reading newspapers, magazines, books and most mail. Tabular mode is used for spreadsheets and some billing information. {{Pause=1}}..Page 9...Page Break..{{Pause=1}} 10. The Erase Key is used to erase the file that you are currently in. Note: Extreme Reader will ask you to confirm Erase, in order to avoid inadvertently erasing files. Note: You will receive an audio indication, when the reader has all 20 files filled and another document is scanned. This cue will assist you in properly managing your files. 11. The Append command, Shift key plus Scan key, is used to add new information into a previously created file. First, navigate to the desired file, using the Advanced Forward or Advanced Back key. Next, place the new information on the scanner bed and press the Shift key plus the Scan key. You will hear a message "scanning and appending to the active file, please wait." You will hear a message when the scan and append are complete. You may then press the Pause/Resume key to hear the appended text read aloud. What Extreme Reader Can and Can Not Scan Extreme Reader cannot read handwritten or hand-printed material. If there is a signature on a typewritten letter, Extreme Reader reads the letter but not the signature. If the signature is written over other printed words, for example - the closing "Sincerely yours," the letters touched by the signature will not read correctly. Extreme Reader may have trouble reading some printed forms because a box often surrounds the text on a form. Extreme Reader sometimes ignores text that is too close to vertical or horizontal lines or words surrounded by a box. {{Pause=1}}..Page 10...Page Break..{{Pause=1}} Reading Daisy format books with Extreme Reader 1. Place the CD containing the Daisy book into the CD Rom drive. Wait for the CD Rom to recognize the CD. This takes approximately 30 seconds.
