How do I Load a Different Overlay in my Pathfinder?
About Overlays
There are two Unity-for-Pathfinder overlays with pre-stored vocabulary for 128-locations: Unity One-Hit in User Area 1 and Unity Sequenced- Hit in User Area 2. The default overlay is User Area 2 with Unity Sequenced-Hit vocabulary. Areas 3 and 4 contain Unity 32 overlays. There are also blank overlays for 32, 64 and 128 locations
IMPORTANT! If you want to load a new overlay into an area where you have added your own custom vocabulary and you want to save that vocabulary: you must perform a Memory Transfer and save the area before you load the new overlay.
To Load an Overlay:
1. Select the STATUS button twice to the left of the display.
2. Open the USER AREA menu.
3. Select Switch User Area (option #1) and select the area you want. You will want to switch to a user that does not currently have valuable custom vocabulary stored in it, because that vocabulary will be erased when a new overlay is loaded. See the IMPORTANT! note above.
4. Activate the Overlay Menu option (option #5).
5. Select the overlay you wish to load. For example, "Unity 128 Sequenced". If you do not see the overlay you wish to load, select More Items (option #7) for additional options.
6. At the top of the display, you will see, "Please enter the Zorro pattern." (See instructions below if needed.) When the Zorro pattern is entered correctly you will see a yellow box with the message, "Loading a different overlay will erase all stored vocabulary in Area #. Do you want to do this?" Activate YES.
Note: You can cancel this operation by selecting Cancel before you enter the Zorro pattern, or by selecting NO in the message box once you have entered the Zorro pattern.
7. Activate OK twice.
8. From the packet of paper overlays that you received, select the overlay you want. Place the overlay you have selected on the Pathfinder keyboard. Install the keyguard with the correct locations on top of the overlay and slide it down toward the bottom of the case so that it fits tightly.
If you are going to use a 64 or 32 location overlay, place the appropriate keyguard on the blank overlay. This will define the key locations for you.
The ZORRO Pattern:
When you want to load a new overlay into an area that already has an overlay, you are asked to enter the Zorro pattern. The Zorro pattern tells the Pathfinder to erase the current User Area and get it ready for a new overlay. To perform the Zorro pattern, activate the following keys in the order they are given:
A1, P1, A8, P8, A8, P1, A1.
The pattern traces a "Z" across the keyboard.
