Narrator: Hi, my name is Ryan and this is the Getting Started module for the PAC Mate. The PAC Mate is a note taker by Freedom Scientific. When you first open your box of your PAC Mate you’ll notice quite a few different things. The PAC Mate comes with a carrying bag, a shoulder strap, a 10/100 Ethernet Network Card. One end plugs into the PAC Mate which is the compact flash card end. The other end plugs into your cable or DSL internet connection. So one of the other devices the PAC Mate comes with is a wireless card. The wireless card again plugs into the compact flash slot on the back of the PAC Mate which we’ll describe later. The PAC Mate also comes with two different USB cables. The first one is a mini-USB adapter. One end would plug into your PAC Mate. The other end is an open USB end that you can use USB memory sticks for. So the other cable the PAC Mate comes with is a longer USB cable that has two different ends on it. The larger end allows you to connect your computer. The smaller end plugs into the back of the PAC Mate. This cable allows you to transfer files between your computer and the PAC Mate. So I’m going to give you a brief description of the keyboard layout on the PAC Mate. The PAC Mate has a nine key Braille keyboard as well as a spacebar and a cursor cross in the center. The cursor cross has an up, down, left and right arrow. To the left of that is your Dot 1 which is a larger round key. Dot 2, Dot 3 and on the far left hand side is Dot 7. To the right of the cursor cross you’ve got Dot 4, Dot 5, Dot 6 and Dot 8. Dot 7 can be used as your shift key and Dot 8 as your enter key. Above each of the larger Braille keys you’ve got function keys. So you have the smaller ones is F1 which is above Dot 1, F2 above Dot 2, F3 above Dot 3, and F7 above Dot 7. The right hand side above Dot 4 you’ve got F4, F5 above Dot 5, F6 above Dot 6, and F8 above Dot 8. Down at the bottom you’ve also got a long horizontal bar which is your space bar. The PAC Mate also has a built-in speaker and a built in microphone on the left hand side. The Braille display on the PAC Mate comes in two different models, a twenty cell or twenty Braille cell model or a forty cell Braille model. To describe the PAC Mate on the far left hand side you’ve got a wheel which scrolls up and down through your document. On the right hand side of the Braille display you have another wheel which does the same thing, scrolls up and down through your document. In the center you’ve got your forty cell Braille display and just above the Braille display are what are called your cursor routing keys. Each cursor routing key corresponds to a Braille cell on the Braille display. So above cell 1 you would have button 1, above cell 2 button 2 and so on. Above that first row of cursor routing keys is another identical row of small buttons and these are used to scroll your Braille display horizontally left and right as well as our ten programmable keys that allow you to perform different functions on the Braille display. So to describe the back of the PAC Mate you have the On/Off power switch. Slightly to the left of that is the AC adaptor hole. Just above that and to the left is a mini-USB port to connect to your computer. To the left of that is a long horizontal slot which is the compact flash. To the left of that is the second compact flash slot. Further to the left of that is the infrared port which allows you to transfer things wirelessly. To the left of that are your headphone jack and your microphone jack.
