How to Set Up the Output Menu

The Output Menu Options  Output Menu Key

 

 Output menu settings

You will use the OUTPUT MENU if your device has an internal computer or if you are connected  to an external computer via the PRC Bluetooth Adapter.  

Your MAP’s Computer Access pages have keys assigned either to automatically turn output on and off or allow you to do it without going to the Toolbox when you are using a computer.

 

You can always check to see whether output is On or Off by looking at the Status Display Area on your device. There is an Output light: When you see the lit LED, Output is ON, otherwise it is OFF.

Output

Turn Output ON when you are using the internal computer or when you are connected to an external computer that can receive information from your device.

Your MAP’s Computer Access pages have keys assigned either to automatically turn output on and off or allow you to do it without going to the Toolbox when you are using a computer.

Output Destination

Select INTERNAL if you have a device with an internal computer.

Select EXTERNAL if you are connected to an external computer via the Bluetooth Wireless Adapter.

Output Mode

IMMEDIATE sends information from your communication aid to the computer or printer as soon as you enter it.

DELAYED means you must select CLEAR DISPLAY to send text from your device to a computer.

Auto Line Feed

If your printer does not automatically add lines at carriage returns when it prints, turn this option ON. This tells the printer to start a new line when it sees a carriage return.

Character Pacing

If Output Destination is set to External you see the Character Pacing option.

 

When this is ON, the rate at which individual characters are sent from your device to a computer is slowed down. You may need to turn this on if you are sending large groups of text at one time (e.g., complete sentences).
