Orbit Reader 20 –User guide Version 1.8

Orbit Research Confidential and Proprietary Information 5

1 Introduction

The Orbit Reader 20 is a portable, refreshable braille display and stand-alone

reader with the following features:

•A line of 20 braille cells with pins that can be transformed to accurately

represent any six- or eight-dot braille code, in any language, and for any

discipline

•Reads the content of files on an SD™ (Secure Digital) card for Stand-Alone Mode

•Remote connectivity to PCs and mobile devices for use with a screen reader

•Simple editing functions

•Signage-quality braille

2 How the Orbit Reader 20 Is Used

2.1 Stand-Alone Mode

Content stored on an SD card can be read in one of the following two ways:

•Sent by library.

•Prepared on computer and copied to the device.

Orbit Reader 20 –User guide Version 1.8

Orbit Research Confidential and Proprietary Information 6

In Stand-Alone mode, the Orbit Reader 20 displays the contents of files stored on

an SD card. Here, there are no translations or interpretations involved. You

prepare the files on your computer, and then store them on the SD card. For

example, if you want to read in Unified English Braille (UEB), prepare the UEB

transcribed title on your computer and then store it on the card.

2.2 Remote Mode

Connect the device to a computer or portable device with a screen reader and

then do one of the following:

•Read commercially available titles on Kindle™, Adobe® Digital Editions, or

iBooks® application programs.

•Employ any accessible technology for browsing, utilities, and education.

The screen reader translates text into braille code of choice.

3 Transcribed Braille

There are multiple sources for files transcribed into high quality braille. Below are

some examples:

•National Library Service (NLS) provides professionally transcribed, formatted

files through the Web Braille project.

•American Printing House for the Blind (APH) transcribes textbooks for K-12

students.

•National Braille Press (NBP) produces braille books, textbooks, tests, and

information for adults and children.

•Louis Database lists titles produced by over 160 organizations.

4 Automatic Translation

In addition to professionally transcribed titles, you may also use dynamic

translation to obtain braille.

Automatically translated braille may be appropriate for some forms of reading.

•NFB-NEWSLINE® is a free audio information service providing downloadable

Braille files of up-to-the-minute content from over 400 national,

international, and state newspapers.

•Bookshare® dynamically generates braille formatted files from the titles in its

library.

5 Translate Braille

•BrailleBlaster™ is a full-featured transcription software package for creating

quality formatted braille.

•DAISY™ Pipeline provides a comprehensive solution for converting text

documents into accessible formats, including braille PEF (Portable Embosser

Format).

Send to Braille is a shortcut that adds braille to the Windows® Send To menu,

which can convert files on your computer into unformatted BRL (Braille Ready

Format) files.

6 Documentation Conventions

For consistency and clarity, we have used the following conventions in this

document.

Braille keys are indicated by a number. For example, if the documentation

indicates Dot 1, it shows: Dot 1.

If multiple braille keys are required, the documentation indicates those keys by

showing the numbers separated by a space like this: Dots 1 4.

When modifier keys are used, the documentation separates the modifiers from

the rest of the keys with a plus (+) sign like this: Space + Dot 1. Modifiers [like the

Shift key on a regular QWERTY keyboard], are keys you hold down while

pressing another key to modify the effect of the pressed key. On a braille

keyboard, Space is often used as a modifier key. Key mnemonics are written in

capital letters for emphasis but are typed in braille lowercase (unless otherwise

stated). When one key follows another, the two keys are shown with a comma

between them. For example, the command Select, M means to press and

release the Select key, then press and release M (Dots 1 3 4 simultaneously).

The Up, Down, Right, and Left directional buttons on the navigation pad are

interchangeably referred to as arrows, buttons, arrow buttons, and arrow keys.

All messages from the device are proceeded with Dots 2 5, 2 5 and a space. In

documentation, this is indicated by a double hyphen.

The word Keys and Buttons are used interchangeably.

In descriptions of each Menu option, this documentation indicates the default

setting.

Any reference to navigation by “page” while in Stand-Alone mode only means

navigation by 1000 characters (page = 1000 characters).

Select button

•Micro-B USB charging port

9 Orientation

Orientation of buttons, keys, cells, and slots is important for understanding how

the device operates and how you input and receive information on the device.

To begin with, place the device on a flat surface in front of you with the row of

braille cells closest to you. This is the proper operational orientation.

Orbit Reader 20 –User guide Version 1.8

Orbit Research Confidential and Proprietary Information 9

At the back of the device, from left to right, is the Power button (left), an SD card

slot (middle), and a Micro-B USB port (right). (Image is reversed in the picture).

They are all recessed in an area in the left half of the back edge. The Power

button sticks out enough to make it identifiable. The SD card slot has two small

bumps directly below it and the USB port has one bump below it.

The SD card slot is a standard type with spring feedback. The SD card is

inserted with the card connector fingers facing down. To remove the card, press

in and remove your finger to allow the card to pop out.

The battery compartment is located at the bottom of the device.

9.1 Key Placement and Use

When properly oriented, the braille cells are closest to you. The Panning keys are

at each end of the braille display. See Panning Keys section for more

information.

Orbit Reader 20 –User guide Version 1.8

Orbit Research Confidential and Proprietary Information 10

For orientation purposes, there are three slightly raised tick marks located above

the braille cells. These orientation marks are spaced by every fifth braille cell. For

example, the first tick mark from the left is between the fifth and sixth braille cell.

Moving towards the top and away from you, find a row of three keys, with a wider

key- in the middle. The wide key is the Space bar. The Dot 7 input key is to the

left of the Space Bar, and the Dot 8 input key is to the right of the Space Bar.

Above the three keys, is a navigation pad in the middle, between the Braille Input

keys and Space bar. The navigation pad contains four directional arrow buttons

(Up, Down, Left, Right) and the Select button.

The six traditional braille input keys are aligned horizontally along the top edge of

the face of the display, Dots 3 2 1 on the left and Dots 4 5 6 on the right.

In Stand-Alone mode, the Braille Input keys are used for navigation and

editing/writing.

In Remote mode, while using the display with a screen reader on a host device,

like an iPhone, the Braille Input keys can be used to input text or control

functionality of applications.

9.2 Panning Keys

The Panning keys are two-function rocker keys found at either end of the braille

display. These keys control how you read the lines of the text: either next or

previous. Pressing one end of the key results in one action, while pressing the

opposite end results in the opposite action.
