Introduction
to Mobile Speak
Thank you
for choosing Code Factory products to provide you with the most comprehensive
access to mainstream mobile technology!
Mobile
Speak is the world's first screen reader to support both the Windows Mobile and
Symbian platforms. It allows you to access all of the functionality of your
mobile phone, including:
· Making and receiving calls
· Composing and reading text messages
(SMS) and e-mail
· Browsing the Internet
· Listening to music and other audio
content

wallpapers, profiles and ringtones
· Accessing a wide range of
third-party applications
This
documentation aims to provide a basic understanding of how to use Mobile Speak
to access a Symbian S60-based smartphone. It should be considered as an
overview of the available functions and features of the software, not of the
devices on which it runs. For more information about your mobile phone, please
consult the user manual or contact your mobile operator’s customer service
department.
For
additional information on Mobile Speak and all Code Factory products, you can
search the Code Factory Knowledgebase. This Knowledgebase contains answers to
frequently-asked questions regarding how to perform certain tasks with the help
of Mobile Speak.
You may
also wish to subscribe to one of the Mobile Speak mailing lists. The Code

What’s
New in 4.0
Mobile
Speak 4 is cross-platform, touch, multi-voice, and ready for the next
generation.
2.1
Cross
Platform
With Mobile
Speak 4, you can switch phones as many times as you want, for free. In
addition, Mobile Speak and Mobile Magnifier are not only cross-device, they are
also cross-platform, which means you can transfer your Mobile Speak or Mobile
Magnifier license from a Symbian to a Windows Mobile device and vice versa.
In Mobile
Speak 4, your mobile phone number is your user ID. Therefore, as long as you do
not change phone numbers you can transfer your Mobile Speak or Mobile Magnifier
license between devices, free of charge, as many times as you wish. There is
also no need to deactivate your license from the old device before activating
it on a new device. Just enter your phone number on the new device and
your license will automatically be activated. Likewise, if your phone is
stolen, broken or lost, as long as you do not change phone numbers, you do not
have to send Code Factory any kind of certificate - just install the software
on your new device and activate it with your User ID.
2.2
Touch
With Mobile
Speak 4, you have three different ways to interact with your touch screen
mobile phone:
1. Use the classic keyboard commands.
2. Use a brand new system of easy touch screen commands
3. Move your finger around the touch screen and let Mobile Speak tell you
what is below your fingertips.
The Mobile
Speak touch interface has been completely redesigned - it is now much more
powerful and intuitive than Mobile Speak Pocket, its predecessor. It also works
on Symbian as well as Windows Mobile, so it is compatible with phones such as
the Nokia N97, X6, C6, Nokia 5800, Nokia 5230, and Nokia 5530.
On phones
with hardware keys as well as a touch screen, you decide what is most
convenient for you, using touch screen gestures or pressing keys.
Mobile
Speak 4 also allows you to activate a review cursor mode, similar to VoiceOver
for the iPhone. When you move your finger around the screen, Mobile Speak will
speak what is under your finger and you only have to double tap to activate the
item.
Whether you
choose the quick access of touch screen gestures, the easy navigation of the
review cursor, or the traditional keyboard shortcuts, or a combination of all
three, the choice is yours. You can change the method depending on which mobile
device you are using, your preferences, or even specific situations.
2.3
Multi-Voice
When you
buy Mobile Speak 4 license, you get three voices for the price of one.
With
Acapela and Loquendo, Mobile Speak 4 allows you to use up to three voices from
a single Text-To-Speech provider. That means that you can use either three
Acapela or three Loquendo voices with only one Mobile Speak license. Further,
no matter which voices you choose to install first, you are not tied to them.
As long as you do not use more than three voices at the same time, you can
switch them as many times as you like. However remember that this feature is
tied to the Text-To-Speech provider, so you will have to choose if you prefer
to have three voices from either Acapela or Loquendo because you will not be
able to mix voices from both providers.
2.4
Ready
for the Next Generation
With Mobile
Speak 4, you do not have to worry about being left behind with old technology.
Mobile Speak supports the latest mobile phones such as the Nokia N97 and HTC
Touch Pro 2, as well as the latest versions of Windows Mobile, V6.5 and of
Symbian, S60 5th Edition. To check the full list of supported devices, and to
know which devices are considered as the most popular among Mobile Speak users,
please visit our Web site at http://www.codefactory.es.
2.5
Packed
with New Features
In addition
to supporting the latest handsets, Mobile Speak 4 also offers many new
features, including:
· New keyboard shortcuts.
· The possibility to add new user
profiles and assign a specific voice to a specific application (calendar,
messages, contacts, etc).
· Back light option - disable or
reduce the backlight to save battery power.
· Stop Mobile Speak while it is
speaking.
· Support for 8 of the latest Acapela
voices: Dutch Belgian Jeroen, French Margaux, Greek Dimitris, Norwegian Olav,
Portuguese Brazilian Marcia, Russian Alyona, Spanish Antonio, and Turkish Ipek.
The Symbian
version of Mobile Speak 4 includes new features such as:
· Advanced support for text editors
such as Quickword, LightNotepad, and Nokia built-in Notepad.
· You can now edit a document as
well as read by line, sentence, words, and characters.
· Advanced support for Fring, the free
messaging application. Mobile Speak allows you to use Fring to make VOIP calls
as well as chat with friends.
· Support for Vocale Presse, an
accessible application to read newspapers.
· Configurable volume limits.
· Phonetic spelling mode.
· Improved built-in user dictionary:
ability to add a word as case dependant (useful for abbreviations for example),
or words with punctuation symbol.
· Support for new Nokia devices: 5730,
6700 Slide, 6710, 6720, 6730, 6760, 6790 Slide, 6790 Surge, E52, E72, N86,
5230, 5530, 5800, N97, N97 Mini, C6 and X6.
· Supports for new Arabic Youssef
Acapela voice.
· Support for Galop, a new Czech TTS
provider.
2.6 New features in v4.50
The latest
v4.50 of Mobile Speak introduces many new features. These include:
·
New
Keypad and Joystick modes on touch devices. These new modes simulate the
phone’s Keypad and Joystick, providing the most rapid, accessible touch-screen
experience ever seen on a mobile Touch device.
·
On
Touch devices, the Command + Volume Up and Command + Volume Down commands have
been added to allow rapid change of the touch mode. In addition, users can now
select the preferred touch mode on startup (Keypad, Joystick, Quadrant, Review
Cursor or Stylus mode).
·
Support for the Nokia
calendar application in several new devices where it was not yet supported
(e.g. E52, E72, E75, 6730, C5) when in Month, Agenda or To-do views.
·
Support for TweetS60,
the popular 3rd party Twitter client.
·
Support for the Focus
Blue 40 Braille portable device from Freedom Scientific.
·
Support for new phones:
Nokia C5, Nokia C6, Nokia E5 and Nokia E73 Mode (for T-Mobile USA).
·
Added feature to the
user dictionary to allow the copying of dictionary between different voices.
·
Added "Include in
Toggle Profile command" setting in General Tab. When set to Off, the
Mobile Speak Profile is not included when toggling profile with Command +
Clear. Default is On for all profiles.
· A large number of bug fixes.

Installation
on Symbian Devices
If you have
obtained your mobile phone from a distributor, Mobile Speak / Mobile Magnifier
will already be installed on your device. However, it is possible that you may
have had to remove the software from your system, or that you have downloaded
the software from the Internet and want to install it yourself.
3.1
Prerequisites
Prior to
installation, ensure the following:
1. The date and time must be correctly set on your
phone. Otherwise, the packages may not install successfully and the trial
license may not function properly.
2. That there is sufficient free memory available
on the device (either in the phone memory, memory card, or the hard disk). The
Mobile Speak package requires around 6Mb of free memory, while the voice
package sizes can vary (Acapela HQ voices are the largest and may occupy up to
25 Mb).
3. That the firmware on your phone is up to date.
To check your current firmware, please dial *#0000#. The
earlier firmware versions on many Symbian phones have issues that interfere
with the operation of your phone, with and without Mobile Speak installed. To
update your firmware, either go to your Nokia service center, or (if your phone
is on the list of supported phones) do it online using the Nokia firmware
update service at http://www.nokia.com/A4176089. To check what firmware is
available for your phone via the Nokia firmware update service, first go to http://europe.nokia.com/A4305060 and enter your phone’s product code (a
seven-digit code found inside the phone, on a label underneath the battery).
Most S60 phones are supported by this service.
4. That your phone is using the correct security
setting. Note that on some phones (especially E-series or operator-branded
models), an additional security setting exists. The default setting may need to
be changed before installation of any application is permitted on the phone. To
do this, go into the phone’s Application Manager and press Options / Settings
and make sure that Software Installation is set to “ON”, and Online Certificate
Check is set to “OFF”.
3.2
Installation
The
following instructions apply to phones where Mobile Speak has never been
previously installed, or where all Mobile Speak packages have been removed. If
you are upgrading from a previous version of Mobile Speak, please read the
section on upgrading below before returning to this section to complete
the installation.
All
installation packages can be found on the Code Factory web site. The base
Mobile Speak package has a name such as “MobileSpeak_S60_v4.5.SIS”. It contains
all the files needed to run Mobile Speak with the Nokia voices, and also to run
Mobile Magnifier. To use other voices, you can install TTS packages which can
all be found on the Code Factory web site. In general, the TTSs have a single
installation package (e.g. “english_us-heather_22k_3rd.SIS”). The
Loquendo voices are an exception – they consist of two packages - loquendo_common_3rd.SIS
and a Loquendo voice file. Please install the loquendo_common_3rd.SIS
file first, and then one or more Loquendo voice files.
The order
of installation is not important, so you can install the Mobile Speak package
prior to installing the TTS or vice versa. You may install the packages to the
phone memory, memory card, or (where available) hard disk of the phone, as long
as sufficient free space is available.
There are
several ways to transfer these files to the phone and install them. The choice
of which method to use depends on the user. Keep in mind that some of these
techniques may require sighted assistance, as several questions will be asked
on the phone during the installation process. The possible choices include:
1. PC Suite: this is a free PC software package
from Nokia, which comes with the phone or can be downloaded free of charge. The
phone is connected to the PC using a USB cable, and you must connect the phone
in “PC Suite” mode after connecting the USB cable. Please refer to the PC Suite
reference manual for a full description of this software.
2. Bluetooth: a Bluetooth pairing must first be
set up between the phone and the computer. Once paired, the installation
packages can be transferred to the phone. They will be sent to the Inbox and
the installation process will begin when the message is opened. Remember to
delete each package from the Inbox after installation.
3. Web: by navigating on the phone’s Web browser
to the Code Factory web site, the installation packages can be downloaded
directly to the phone. Installation will be started automatically once the
download is complete.
4. File transfer: you can also transfer the
installation packages directly to the phone (e.g. by copying the files to the
memory card using a card reader). Once this is done, use the phone’s File
Manager to locate the installation package. By opening it, the installation
process will start automatically. Remember to delete each package after
installation.
After a
successful installation, Mobile Speak will start automatically on most models.
However, it is advisable that you restart the phone when installation is done.
If Mobile Speak did not start automatically, please use the “Start Mobile
Speak” shortcut to launch the application.
Mobile
Speak comes integrated with Mobile Magnifier. By default, Mobile Speak is
activated and Mobile Magnifier is deactivated the first time that the Mobile
Speak package is installed. However, you can then customize the startup
behavior of Mobile Speak and Mobile Magnifier by configuring the Auto Start
Mobile Speak and Auto Start Magnifier options in the Configure Mobile Speak
application.
3.3
Uninstalling
To
uninstall Code Factory products, use the Manager application, which in most
phones is located in the Settings or Applications folder. The shortcut to this
program is sometimes labeled “App Mgr”, “App Manager”, or “Application
Manager”.
The Manager
application will show a list with all the packages and applications installed
in the system. Remove the Mobile Speak package first, and then any voices,
games or tools. It is not necessary to first press “Stop Mobile Speak” before
uninstalling.
After
uninstalling the packages, Mobile Speak will have been cleared from your mobile
phone. It is recommended that the phone be restarted after uninstalling Mobile
Speak.
Note that
on Symbian 3rd edition phones, it is also possible to uninstall
Mobile Speak by pressing the Clear key on any of the Mobile Speak icons.
3.4
Nokia
Built-In TTS
Mobile
Speak provides access to the Nokia built-in TTS on all Nokia Symbian 9 phones.
The standard voice is called "Nokia" and, on phones that
support the Nokia High Quality TTS (i.e. Nokia E50, E51, E52, E55 E61i, E63,
E65, E66, E71, E71x, E73, E72, E75, E90 Communicator, N75, N78, N79, N81, N85,
N86, N96, N97, 5320, 5500 Sport, 5530, 5630, 5700 XpressMusic, 5730, 6110
Navigator, 6120 classic, 6121, 6124, 6210, 6220, 6290, 6700 Slide, 6710, 6720,
6790, C5, C6, E5 and X6 phones), another called "Nokia HQ" is also
available. These Nokia voices are shipped with all Symbian 9 phones, and new
Nokia HQ voices are also downloadable on supported phones from the Nokia web
site at http://europe.nokia.com/A4286225.
The Standard Quality TTS will automatically switch languages to match the phone
language. The High Quality TTS can be configured to use a specific language and
voice or modify the speed via the "Speech" application, which is
usually located inside the phone’s Settings folder.
If you have
a supported phone, you can download and install additional High Quality voices.
To do this, visit the Nokia download page at http://europe.nokia.com/A4286225.
For a given language, you must install the language package and at least one of
the voices listed. However, most phones will come with the TTS of the default
language already installed. After installing the new voice, you’ll see it
listed inside the phone’s Speech application. Use the Speech application to
manage the currently selected voice. The volume and speed will be controlled by
Mobile Speak.
A FAQ
regarding the Nokia built-in TTS can be accessed at http://www.codefactory.es/additional_docs/en/nokiaTTS_EN.html.
3.5
Software
Updates
Updates to
the Mobile Speak software are regularly made available at the Code Factory web
site www.codefactory.es. Minor updates are usually free, while major updates
may require purchase of an upgrade license, so check the release notes for each
version to see whether this is required.
3.6
Upgrading from a Previous Version
Users who
are upgrading to v4.xx from v3.xx MUST first uninstall ALL Code Factory
packages (TTS, Mobile Speak and any related tools) before installing v4 of
Mobile Speak. This is extremely important, since failing to do so may prevent
the products from working correctly, or may even cause phone instability. Check
with your distributor, or refer to the “Uninstalling” section above, if you
have any questions regarding how to remove packages from your phone.
Once all
Code Factory packages have been uninstalled, restart the phone, and then you
can proceed with a standard installation, as described in the “Installation”
section above.
Users who
are upgrading from v4.0 or v4.01 to the current version should first stop
Mobile Speak. If installing to the same memory location, then it should be
possible to install the current version without uninstalling the previous
version. However, if you wish to install to a different memory location, then
it is recommended to first uninstall the previous version. Note that none of
the TTS packages have changed since v4.0, so it will not be necessary to
reinstall the TTS packages.
4
How-to's
On touch screen devices, keep in mind that all
Command key shortcuts that are described in this section can be performed using
the virtual keypad when in Keypad mode.
4.1
How
Do I Make a Phone Call?
To make a
phone call, you should first navigate to the Standby screen. You can
switch between the Standby screen and the Main Menu by using the “Menu” key.
All numeric
keys that are pressed in the Standby screen are interpreted as digits for the
telephone number to be called. When all the digits of the phone number have
been entered, press the Send key, or open the Options menu with the left soft
key and select “Voice Call” to dial the entered phone number.
On touch
screen devices with no physical keyboard, the most convenient way to dial a
phone number is to enter into Keypad mode and dial the number directly from the
standby screen, then press the Send key. Alternatively, you can use the virtual
keyboard in number or QWERTY modes to enter numbers directly and make a phone
call.
To answer
an incoming call on a touch screen device (regardless of lock screen status):
while the phone is ringing, slide left to hear the caller ID, and slide right
to answer call directly. Note that on some phones, the slide left with phone
lock may not read the caller ID - in this case it will be necessary to unlock
manually using the phone's keyguard switch key.
4.2
How
Do I Access the Main Menu?
You can
switch between the “Standby” and “Main Menu” windows by using the “Menu Key”.
From the “Main Menu”, you can access all the applications on the phone, which
are located either in the current “Main Menu” window itself or in
subfolders.
By long
pressing the “Menu Key”, you can display a list of currently running
applications. You can browse this list by going up and down with the joystick
key. With the center joystick key or with the left soft key, you can select the
currently selected application. With the right soft key (“Cancel”), the list
will be closed without selecting anything.
4.3
How
Do I Send an SMS?
You can
switch between the “Standby” and “Main Menu” windows by using the “Menu Key”.
Sending
an SMS from the “Main Menu” Window
In the
“Main Menu” window, you can navigate the various Menu folders with the joystick
to locate the “Messaging” icon. Press the joystick to open the “Messaging”
application.
In the
application window, you can browse the menu. The first (uppermost) menu option
is “New Message”. Select this option to choose among “Text Message” (the
default), “Multimedia message”, “Audio message”, and “E-mail.” Selecting “Text
Message” will display the “Text Message” window.
When the
“Text Message” window opens, the cursor initially is located in the “To” field.
In this field, the default input mode is number mode, as normally you would
want to enter the telephone number of the recipient. If you press the joystick
in this field, the list of “Contacts” appears where you can scroll through this
list to choose the recipient.
Press
downwards on the joystick to place the cursor in the input text field. Here,
you can write your text message. Press upwards on the joystick at any moment to
return to the “To” field.
With the
left soft key, you can access to a list of options which you can navigate and
select with the joystick. The most important options are:
· “Send” - this only appears when the
“To” field is filled. Selecting Send will send the text message to the
recipient(s) listed in the “To” field.
· “Add recipient” - opens a list of
Contacts, from which the recipient can be selected.
· “Exit” - exits the entire
“Messaging” application.
Note that
the Messaging application may also be assigned to either the left or right soft
key, or as an active shortcut, in the phone’s standby/home screen.
4.4
How
Do I Manage My Contact List?
You can
manage your list of email and phone contacts via the Contacts application. In
both cases, the Contacts application can be found in the main phone menu, and
may also be assigned to either the left or right soft key in the phone’s
standby/home screen.
Once you
have opened the Contacts application, you will be presented with a list of your
current contacts. By selecting a contact, you can choose to make a voice call,
send a message, or send an email, provided that you have stored all of the
relevant information for each of these options. Depending on the operating
system and the capabilities of the device, you may also have the option to make
a video call, send the contact information via Bluetooth, record a voice
dialing prompt, or any number of additional operations.
4.5
How
Do I Manage Calendar Appointments?
The Calendar
application can be found on Symbian phones in either the “Main Menu” window or
in the “Applications” subfolder.
The
Calendar application opens with the “Month View” window, with the cursor on the
current day. This current date is spoken at startup. With the joystick key, you
can scroll through the days of the month and move to the previous or the next
month.
You can
change between “Month View”, “Week View“, “Day View”, and (on supported
devices) “Agenda” and To-do” views using the Options menu.
Creating
a New Appointment
There are
three ways to create a new appointment:
1. Press the left soft key to open the Options
list and then select the “New Entry” option.
2. Press the left soft key to open the Options
list and then select the “Open” option. This will open the “Day View” where you
can open the “Options” list and select the “New Entry” option.
3. Press the joystick to open the “Day View”. Here
you can open the “Options” list and select the “New Entry” option.
Once the
“New Entry” option is selected, you can choose between creating a “Meeting”,
“Memo”, “Anniversary”, or a “To-do” type of event.
In the “New
Appointment” window, there are various fields available depending on the type
of appointment event. The label of the highlighted field is spoken, and you can
select the current field by scrolling through the window with the joystick key.
Pressing
the right soft key (“Done”) saves the new entry and you are returned to the
“Day View”.
Editing
an Appointment
In the
“Month View” and “Week View” windows, the user can browse the calendar days
using the joystick key. When a day is selected containing one or more
appointments, the voice - after mentioning the date itself - will speak the
word “Meeting”.
By
selecting “Open” from the Options menu or double-pressing the joystick, “Day
View” is displayed where a list of all the appointments (meetings, memos,
to-do’s and anniversaries) is shown. When scrolling through this list, the
subject, location, and starting time of the highlighted item will be spoken.
When
selecting “Open” in the Options menu in “Day View”, the currently highlighted
appointment event will be opened. As when this item was created, the various
fields (depending on the type of event) can be scrolled through and edited with
the joystick.
Again, with
the right soft key (“Done”), the newly edited entry will be saved and you will
return to “Day View”.
Deleting
an Appointment
By
selecting Delete from the Options menu in “Day View”, the highlighted item in
the appointments list will be deleted. Before deleting it, you will be prompted
to confirm.
4.6
How
Do I Read Text Content?
There are
various shortcut commands you can use to read text content. These commands help
you navigate the text, by repeating certain parts of the text or spelling
certain words. For most of these commands, Mobile Speak must be in the “Reading
Layout”.

4.8
How
Do I Lock and Unlock the Phone?
You can
switch between the “Standby” and “Main Menu” windows by using the “Menu Key”.
When in the
“Standby” window, on most non-touch devices you can lock the keypad of the
phone by pressing the left soft key and subsequently the asterisk key (*). To
unlock the keypad, repeat the same steps. Note that on some devices, the key
combination may be different, e.g. left soft key + Function key; left soft key

key, scroll down 1 item to “Lock keypad” and press joystick enter. Note that
some phones may have a special sliding key (generally located on the side or on
the top of the phone) that will lock/unlock the keypad and/or touch display.
This is available on all touch-screen devices and is called the Keyguard
switch.
4.9
How
Do I Access the Mobile Speak Control Panel?
The Mobile
Speak Control Panel (called “Configure Mobile Speak” in Symbian) can be
accessed at any time by using any of the following:
· Pressing the Command key + right
soft key
· Tap 2 (Settings) and double tap 3 on
touch screen devices when in Quadrant mode.
Additionally,
it can be accessed by navigating to the “Code Factory” folder in the main menu,
and opening the Configure Mobile Speak application.

Do I Change the Stylus Mode? (Touch screen devices)
Activating
Stylus mode allows you to use the touch screen normally, bypassing all of the
Mobile Speak touch commands. This may be useful when the device will be used by
a sighted person who might otherwise have difficulty navigating using the touch
commands.
To activate
Stylus mode, repeatedly press Command key + Volume Up or Command key + Volume
Down to move through the list of touch modes until the Stylus mode is enabled.
To return
to the original touch mode, repeat the same process until the desired mode is
enabled.
Note also
that the current MS profile’s “Touch mode on startup” setting can be set to
“Stylus mode”, and then on restarting Mobile Speak, it will change into Stylus
mode.

Licensing
Mobile Speak 4 comes
with a new licensing system which offers many benefits and allows maximum flexibility.
Users can choose between two licensing methods, one based on your telephone
number (known as phone-number-based licensing), and one based upon a unique
identifier for your device (known as device-based licensing).
A detailed description
of each of these licensing methods is available on our web page at
http://www.codefactory.es/en/products.asp?id=309.
5.1
Activation Manager
After
installing Mobile Speak or Mobile Magnifier, you can activate the products or
obtain a trial license through the Activation Manager. The Activation Manager
is launched when entering Configure Mobile Speak > Options > Product
Activation.
Before
attempting to activate the product, please make sure that your phone has
service and is not in offline or flight mode, and that the date and time are
set correctly.
The
Activation Manager will communicate with the Code Factory licensing server
using your preferred method of connection:
· Via the Internet using your device's
connection with a Wi-Fi hotspot.
· Via the Internet using your mobile
phone's Internet service. Please consult your mobile phone provider about
configurations on how to get this to work, as well as any charges for using the
service.
· Via SMS/text message. Please consult
your mobile phone provider regarding charges for sending and receiving SMS from
international numbers. Refer also to our list of mobile phone networks confirmed to work with SMS
activations.
5.2
Getting a Trial License
Getting a
trial license is very straightforward in Mobile Speak, and does not require any
help from your distributor.
1. Enter the Activation Manager.
Upon entering the Activation Manager on a
Symbian device, you will be asked to select your preferred method of connection
(SMS or Internet). After entering the Activation Manager, some informational
prompts will be displayed, warning of possible SMS or Internet charges involved
in the activation process.
2. Select “No” when asked if you are a registered user of Code Factory
products.
An activation request for a trial license will
be sent to the Code Factory server. The request will be done for all Code
Factory products installed on the device at the time of activation. Depending
on the connection speed, this process may take some minutes. The activation
process will then complete and an appropriate information message will be
displayed. After completing the activation, the license status for all products
can be found in Configure Mobile Speak > Options > About.
If
additional voices or Code Factory products are installed on the device at a
later time and you wish to obtain a trial license for them, it may be necessary
to repeat the trial activation process in order to obtain the trial
license. Check the license status first if you are unsure.
Trial
licenses are time and date sensitive. Therefore, changing the time or date on
your phone may cause a trial license to expire. If this occurs, simply set the
correct time and date and repeat the trial activation process and any remaining
days of the trial will be reactivated.
5.3
Activating
a Full License
The process
for activating a trial license is very similar to that of obtaining a trial
license. After purchasing a full license for your product, enter the Activation
Manager, select your preferred method of connection and respond to any
informational prompts. Answer “Yes” when asked if you are a registered user of
Code Factory products. If connecting via the internet, you will be prompted to
enter your phone number if you are registering a product with a
phone-number-based license (please leave this field blank if you have a
device-based license). Press “OK” (or “Yes”) to send the activation request to
the Code Factory server. Once completed, check the license status of all Code
Factory products to confirm that the activation has been successful.
When
activating a full license, a trial license will also be generated for any other
installed products that had not previously been trialed and for which you have
not yet purchased a license.
If at a
later time you decide to install additional Code Factory products, or you
re-install existing products, you may be required to repeat the activation
process.

Commands
Mobile
Speak allows rapid access to phone information as well as configuration options
via the Mobile Speak Command Key. Pressing the Command key followed by an appropriate
key will perform a specific command (e.g. Command + Left softkey to read phone
status information). Mobile Speak Commands are available on all 3rd
edition phones. They are also available on 5th edition touch phones,
either by using the built-in keyboard or when using the device in Keypad mode.
The
default Command key changes depending on the phone model. Please refer to the “Command Key submenu“ section in Chapter 7 for this
information. It can be configured in Configure Mobile Speak > Options >
Command key.
For a full list of the Mobile Speak commands
available by pressing the Mobile Speak Command key, please refer to the
Keyboard Commands chapter in Appendix A.
6.1
Keyboard
Help Mode
The
Keyboard Help Mode familiarizes you with the keyboard layout as well as with
Mobile Speak’s commands. In this mode, you can explore all the commands without
actually performing them.
To turn on
Keyboard Help Mode, press the Command Key and then press and hold the 5 key for
1 second. Mobile Speak will say "Help Mode On". You can now press any
key to learn about the keyboard layout or perform a touch gesture. To learn
about the Mobile Speak commands, press Command and then a short or long press
of a key. Mobile Speak will provide a short description of the command assigned
to that keystroke. To turn off Keyboard Help Mode, press the Command Key and
hold the 5 key for 1 second again. Mobile Speak will say "Help Mode
Off". Help mode will also turn off automatically if no input is received
during 15 seconds.
On touch
phones, note that when in Keypad mode, the Keyboard Help mode provides an
excellent way to become familiar with the virtual keys and slide gestures
available in these modes, as well as the Mobile Speak commands. It is highly
recommended to new users of Touch devices to spend some time in Keyboard Help
mode, mastering the location of the keys and the correct way to perform
gestures.
6.2
About
Layouts
Mobile
Speak 4 organizes commands into groups called “layouts”. These groups combine
related commands, such as those dealing with magnification or settings, in
order to make them easily accessible and make optimal use of the limited number
of keys available on some mobile devices.
The following
three layouts are available on both touch screen and non touch screen devices:
Default
Includes the most commonly-used commands.
Advanced Reading
Provides commands for text navigation, allowing you to navigate by character,
word, line, paragraph, etc.
Magnification
Includes the most commonly-used commands for controlling Mobile Magnifier. Note
that this layout is only available on phones that support Mobile Magnifier, and
can only be entered into when Mobile Magnifier is active.
The Default
layout is active by default when Mobile Speak is started. By pressing Command +
5, the active layout will be changed to the next one. For a list of all the
Keyboard Commands available in these layouts, please refer to the Keyboard
Commands section in Appendix A.
In
addition, on touch screen devices, Mobile Speak uses the following touch
layouts when in Quadrant mode:
General
Includes the most commonly-used commands, such as moving the cursor, as well as
switching between other layouts.
Go To
Allows you to navigate to various parts of the phone interface, such as the
left and right soft keys, the main phone menu, Configure Mobile Speak, and so
on.
Speak
Offers commands to speak information about the phone and the current
application, as well as spelling and repeating spoken text.
Settings
Allows you to change the most frequently-used Mobile Speak settings, such as
volume and speed of speech output, without going into Configure Mobile Speak.
The General
layout is active when Quadrant mode is entered. By performing the appropriate
tap, one of the other layouts will be entered into. For a list of all the Touch
Commands available in these layouts, please refer to the Touch Commands section
in Appendix A.

Configure
Mobile Speak
Mobile
Speak and Mobile Magnifier are unique because of the flexibility they offer you
in customizing your mobile access solution. With more than 60 user-configurable
options for speech, Braille and magnification, you can have an accessible phone
best suited to your needs and preferences.
7.1
Mobile
Speak Configuration
To
configure Mobile Speak and/or Mobile Magnifier, navigate to and enter the “Code
Factory” folder.
In the
“Code Factory” folder, there are various Mobile Speak options which may
include:
· Stop Mobile Speak
· Configure Mobile Speak
· Stop Mobile Magnifier
· Start Mobile Magnifier
· Start Mobile Speak
Select
“Configure Mobile Speak” and enter to open the application.
7.2
MS
Profiles
Mobile
Speak organizes configuration settings into groups called MS Profiles, allowing
you to switch between different profiles as you need them. For example, you
could configure one MS Profile to use a certain voice, speed, and level of
verbosity for reading long passages of text, instead of your preferred
configuration for normal use of the phone. All of the Mobile Speak settings are
included in each MS Profile, making it easy to customize them to your specific
needs in different situations.
In the
initial screen of the Mobile Speak configuration panel, you will see the three
MS Profiles, named by default as Normal, Beginner, and Advanced. Additionally,
you can define your own personal MS Profiles. One of these MS Profiles is
always marked as Active, which means that its settings are currently in use.
The word “Active” will be spoken after the name of the currently active MS
Profile.
For each MS
Profile, you have the option to activate or customize it. By selecting the
Customize option, you will be presented with various tabs, each of which
contains a different set of configuration options, as discussed in the next
sections of this chapter.
7.3
Configuration
Structure
Each MS
Profile is divided into 6 groups of settings: Speech, Reading, General,
Verbosity, Braille, and Magnifier (on supported phones). To switch between the
different groups, use the joystick left and right keys, or slide left and right
if using a touch screen device when in Quadrant or Keypad mode. The options that also
have associated “Command key” shortcuts are described in the “Overview of
Command Key shortcuts” section.
Note that
any changes that you make to the configuration settings will only take effect
once you exit the MS Profile that you are currently customizing or when you
switch to a different setting group using the joystick left or right key or
left/right slide gestures.
Important:
Do not change settings (e.g. Volume, Verbosity) using “Command Key” shortcuts
while the Configure Mobile Speak application is running. These changes will be
overridden when you exit the Configure Mobile Speak application.
7.4

Voice
Many
different voices can be installed on the same phone, and the user is able to
switch between them. All installed voices appear in the selection list, however
if you choose one that is not activated, it will expire after 10 minutes. In
the case of Loquendo and Acapela, if you install more than three voices, only
three will be shown in the list, and you have to uninstall one of these three
before you can use a different one. By selecting the voice “none”, no speech
will be heard when this profile is active.
Volume
This option
increases or decreases the volume of the speech output (1 to 10). It does not
affect the volume of system sounds or the audio during a call. It also has a
related shortcut “Command Key” combination (“Command Key” + joystick key up,
“Command Key” + joystick key down, in default and reading layouts), as well as
touch screen gestures to change the volume. See the Section with the overview
of Command Shortcuts for a further description. The default level is 5 for all
MS Profiles.
Speed
This option
increases or decreases the speed of the speech output (-10 to 10). It also has
a related shortcut “Command Key” combination (“Command Key” + joystick key
left, “Command Key” + joystick key right, in default and reading layouts), as
well as touch screen gestures to change the speed. See the Section with the
overview of Command Shortcuts for a further description. Default is 0 for the
Normal MS Profile, 0 for the Beginner MS Profile, and 5 for the Advanced MS
Profile. Note that the speed of the NokiaHQ voice is controlled
from within the phone’s “Speech” application. For the Nokia voices, the speed
is not configurable.
Change Spelling Speed
This option increases or decreases the speed of the speech output (-10
to 10) when spelling a word with the spelling commands (e.g. “Command Key” + 8,
in the default layout, or the corresponding touch screen gesture -- see
the section with the overview of Command Shortcuts for a further description). The default level is 0 for the Normal and Beginner
MS Profiles and 5 for the Advanced MS Profile.
Pitch
This option
increases or decreases the pitch of speech output (-10 to 10). Default level is
0 for all MS Profiles. This default is already the recommended pitch for each
voice. Note that the pitch settings have no effect when using the Loquendo,
Acapela HQ, Nokia or Nokia HQ voices.
Voice on Call
This option
allows the user to choose either the Nokia or (if available) the Nokia HQ TTS
as the active voice while on a call. Note that in Samsung phones, it is not
currently possible to hear speech output while on a call.
Volume on Call
This option
increases or decreases the volume of speech output of Mobile Speak during a
call (1 to 10). Default level is 8 for all MS Profiles.
The “Silent
on Calls” feature instructs Mobile Speak not to provide speech output while the
user is on a call. If this option is off, then Mobile Speak works normally
during a call and the user can navigate through the phone to, for example,
check the calendar or the contacts list. Default setting is OFF for all MS
Profiles.
Mute On
Keypad Lock
The “Mute on
Keypad Lock” setting affects the operation of Mobile Speak when the keypad is
locked. When set to ON, Mobile Speak will be automatically muted when the
keypad is locked. Speech output will be enabled automatically when the keypad
is unlocked. Default setting is OFF for all MS Profiles.
Silent
While Dialing
For more
privacy, enabling this option lets the user dial numbers without speech
feedback announcing each number pressed. Default is OFF for all MS Profiles.
Change the Audio Profile
Select the
Normal audio profile when using Mobile Speak with speech routed through the
phone’s speaker. Select the Ear phone audio profile when using a headset or ear
phone. Default setting is Normal for all MS Profiles.
Change the Speech delay (seconds)
This allows
the user to specify a delay (in seconds) which is added when speaking. This can
be useful inside some applications where Mobile Speak reacts faster than the
screen is updated. The additional delay will ensure that the correct item is
spoken. Default setting is “Default” for all MS Profiles.
Reduce minimum volume
With this setting, one can set the percentage with which the volume is
reduced at low volume levels (1-3). Possible values range from 12.5% to 100%.
The default value is 100% (i.e. no reduction).

character is inserted, the preceding word is spoken.
- Characters and
words: Both characters and words are spoken while entering text.
It also has
a related shortcut “Command Key” combination (“Command Key” + 9 in default layout,
“Command Key” + Long
press 9,
in reading layout), as
well as a corresponding touch screen gesture. See the Section with the overview
of Command Shortcuts for a further description. Default setting is “Characters
and Words” for all MS Profiles.
Punctuation
This option
changes the punctuation setting (None / Some / All). It also has a related
shortcut “Command Key” combination (“Command Key” + 7 in default layout, “Command Key” + Long press 7 in reading layout), as well as a corresponding touch screen gesture.
See the Command Shortcuts section for more information. The default level is
“Some” for all MS Profiles.
Secret
Editor Mode
This
setting controls the type of speech output when entering characters in a secret
editor (e.g., the PIN code screen and password edit fields). When this option
is set to “Asterisk”, the “*” character will be spoken each time a key is
entered. When set to “Character”, the entered character is spoken. When set to
“None”, there is no speech feedback while typing. It also has a related
shortcut “Command Key” combination (“Command Key” + Long press * in all layouts), as well as a corresponding touch
screen gesture. See the Command Shortcuts section for more information. Default
setting is “Asterisk” for all MS Profiles.
Phonetic
Spelling Mode
The
phonetic spelling mode controls the spelling of letters (for example, after
pressing “Command Key” + 8 in the default layout). Instead of spelling the
letters by their names, they are spelled by means of the international
radiotelephony phonetic alphabet (e.g., “a” is spelled “alpha”, “b” is spelled
“bravo”, “c” is “charlie”, etc.). In general, vowels with accents will be
interpreted as standard vowels. Nevertheless, in some special cases (e.g.,
Scandinavian vowels like Æ, Å, the Spanish consonant ñ, the Czech letters with
carons like ŭ or č) the characters are not spelled phonetically but
just by their names. The default setting is “OFF” for the Normal MS profile,
“ON” for the Beginner MS profile, and “OFF” for the Advanced MS profile.
Case
Indicator
The “Case
Indicator” setting changes the way capital letters are spoken in text editors
(such as SMS, email, and help). When set to ON, the case of the character will
be spoken when entering text with keyboard echo set to “Characters” or
“Characters and Words”, when navigating text by character, and when spelling
the current word (“Command key” + long press 6 or “Command Key” + long press
#). The word "Caps" will be spoken immediately before the character
if it is in uppercase. The default setting is “OFF” for the Normal MS Profile, “OFF”
for the Beginner MS Profile, and “ON” for the Advanced MS Profile.
Speak
Deleted Characters
When the
Speak Deleted Characters option is set to “ON”, if you erase text in an editor,
the deleted character(s) will be spoken. If verbosity level is set to High, it
will also say "Deleted" followed by the character(s) that were
deleted. Default setting is “OFF” for the Normal MS Profile, “ON” for the
Beginner MS Profile, and “OFF” for the Advanced MS Profile.
Number
Processing
This option
controls the way that numbers are spoken by the TTS, and is applied to all
numbers in all applications. Numbers containing less than the number of digits
specified in “Minimum Number of Processing Digits” are sent directly to the TTS. However, numbers
longer than this are processed according to the “Number Processing” setting.
Available options are Single, Pairs, Triples, or TTS. The “Single”, “Pairs”,
and “Triples” settings speak numbers in groups of one, two, and three digits
respectively. The “TTS” option sends the number directly to the text-to-speech
engine, which will speak the numbers according to its own rules. The Default
setting is Single for all MS Profiles.
Change the Minimum Number of Processing Digits
This setting reflects the minimum number of digits that a number must
have before the current Number Processing option is applied. The default value
is 5 for all MS Profiles.
Toggle the User Dictionary On and Off
With this setting, the user can switch the user dictionary on or off.
This is identical to the “Command Key” shortcut when pressing “Command Key” +
4, in the default layout. For more information about the User Dictionary, see
the end of this section. The default value is “ON” for all MS Profiles.

enabled, this option includes a short abbreviation before each text sent to the
device, indicating the type of control being displayed. The Braille control
type abbreviations vary according to the currently-selected language. With an
English TTS, for example, ed is used to indicate that the control in
focus is an editor. With a Norwegian TTS, on the other hand, sf (as in
“skrivefelt” to refer to an editor) is used instead. The default setting is
“ON” for all MS profiles.
Braille
Cursor
In addition
to the normal screen navigation mode, Mobile Speak has a “Braille cursor” mode,
allowing you to view the contents of the screen in Braille, whether or not they
are selectable using the system cursor of the phone, and to explore the screen
without moving focus to another part or item. The default setting is “OFF” for
all MS profiles.
Auto
Turn Off Bluetooth
When this
option is enabled, the Bluetooth capabilities of the phone will be
automatically switched off when the Braille device is disconnected manually,
either by terminating the connection between the mobile phone and Braille
device, or by turning off the Braille device. This provides a higher level of
security, and conserves battery power. Note that Bluetooth is automatically
switched on when the connection between devices is established again. The
default setting is “OFF” for all MS profiles.
Control
Summary
This option,
when used in conjunction with the Braille Cursor mode, adds an extra line for
each editable control, selection list or grid, providing additional information
about the location of the system focus within the control, as well as the
number of lines and items in the control. For example, if system focus is on
the second of four lines in an editor, the control summary displayed in Braille
Cursor Mode will inform you - through a concise format suitable for short
Braille displays - that the control is an editor with four lines and that focus
is currently on line 2. The same applies to lists and grids, except that
instead of lines, control summary provides details on the number of items and
on which item is currently in focus. The default setting is “ON” for all MS
profiles.
Input Full
Pan
This option
controls the scrolling behavior of the Braille line when the end of the line is
reached while entering or editing text. If it is set to “ON”, the display will
be scrolled by the entire width of the line such that the next character
entered is shown in the first cell of a new Braille line. This setting is the
default as most Braille users do not need to monitor the Braille display while
typing. However, if it is set to OFF, the display will be scrolled by one
character at a time so that the next character is shown near the end of the
current Braille line. This setting is recommended if you want to keep track of
what you have typed so far without relying on speech feedback.
Cursor
Blinking
When this
option is set to “ON”, the current position of the cursor within the text will
be indicated on the Braille device via a flashing tactile cursor (dots 7 and 8
that go up and then retract every half-second). The blinking stops when the
Braille device or mobile phone is not touched for 30 seconds. The default
setting is “OFF” for all MS profiles.
Suppress
Capital Sign
Enabling
this option prevents the Braille output from indicating upper-case (“capital”)
letters in Grade 1 or Grade 2 Braille by placing a dot 6 before the uppercase
character. The default setting is “OFF” for all MS profiles.
Reconnect at
Startup
When this
option is enabled, Mobile Speak will automatically attempt to reconnect to the
last-connected Braille device when the phone is restarted. The default setting
is “OFF”.

Screen Layout Type
Mobile
Magnifier provides three different ways to magnify the screen:
· Full
screen view (default layout for all MS Profiles): the contents of the entire
screen are magnified.
· Distributed
view: screen text is magnified in the center using the selected zoom level,
while the window title at the top as well as current left and right softkeys at
the bottom are displayed using a secondary magnification setting.
· Classic
view: the bottom half of the screen shows what is in the unmagnified top half,
but using a different magnification level.
|
|
|
|
Auto Zoom
Auto Zoom
can be turned on or off. When turned on, the Magnification Level will
automatically adjust to the amount of screen contents and may therefore change.
Users who prefer to have a fixed zoom level should turn this feature OFF. The
default setting is “OFF” for all MS Profiles.
Scrolling
When this
option is enabled, if a high level of magnification is used and text does not
fit the screen, Mobile Magnifier will automatically scroll to let you read the
entire text without pressing any key. The default setting is “ON” for all MS
Profiles.
Scrolling Speed
This option
controls the rate at which Mobile Magnifier automatically pans the text when
the “Scrolling” feature is enabled. There are 10 different scrolling speeds to
choose from. Default setting is 3 for the Normal MS Profile, 1 for the Beginner
MS Profile, and 5 for the Advanced MS Profile.
Border
Mobile
Magnifier can draw a border outside the magnification area. The default setting
is “OFF” for the Normal MS Profile, “ON” for the Beginner MS Profile, and “OFF”
for the Advanced MS Profile.
Border Width
The width of
the border can be customized to your preference. The default setting is “Small”
for the Normal MS Profile, “Large” for the Beginner MS Profile, and “Small” for
the Advanced MS Profile.
Border Color
The color of
the border can be customized according to your preference (White / Red / Green
/ Black / Yellow / Blue). The default setting is “Red” for all MS Profiles.
Font Smoothing
Mobile
Magnifier is the first solution for the Symbian platform to offer this very
important feature for the visually impaired. Enabling this option smoothes the
corners, curves and edges of the magnified screen contents to make them appear
less jagged when enlarged and thus easier to read, even for extended lengths of
time.
Here is an
example:
|
|
|
The default
setting is “ON” for the Normal and Beginner MS Profiles, and “OFF” for the
Advanced MS Profile.
Color
Scheme
Mobile
Magnifier has 7 different color schemes: Normal, Black and White, Grayscale
(low resolution), Grayscale (high resolution), Color (low resolution), Color
(high resolution), and Inverse Colors – meeting the needs of all users with
varying degrees of vision impairment. The default setting is “Normal” for all
MS Profiles.
Enhanced
Color Scheme
When
enabled, the Enhanced Color Scheme option will load a theme which has been
specially designed to improve visibility of text. This theme is loaded into all
applications, providing better readability of text. The default setting is
“OFF” for all profiles.
Status Shortcuts
Enabling
this feature gives you access to the following information screens:
Pressing the
left soft key for half a second, the screen will show an icon indicating
the battery level, network status and current time – all displayed with large
icons and fonts.
Pressing the
right soft key for half a second, the screen will show icons indicating
if there are missed calls, unread messages and the date with large numbers.
You can
enable or disable this feature using the “Status Shortcuts” setting. The
default setting is “ON” for all MS Profiles.
Distributed Zoom Level
This is the
secondary magnification level used for the title and soft key areas of the
Distributed Views layout type. Default setting is 2x for all MS profiles.
Text Cursor
You can
replace the default system cursor with your own customized text cursor - change
its width and color, and turn blinking on or off. You can enable or disable
this feature using the Text Cursor setting. The default setting is “ON” for all
MS Profiles.
Text Cursor Color
You can
customize the color of the text cursor (White / Red / Green / Black / Yellow /
Blue). The default setting is “Red” for all MS Profiles.
Cursor Size
You can
customize the size of the text cursor (Small, Medium, or Large). The default
setting is “Large” for the Normal MS Profile, “Large” for the Beginner MS
Profile, and “Small” for the Advanced MS Profile.
Cursor Blinking
You can
control the blinking of the text cursor with this setting (ON or OFF). The
default setting is “ON” for the Normal MS Profile, “ON” for the Beginner MS
Profile, and “OFF” for the Advanced MS Profile.

Options
under the Left Soft Key
When the
left soft key is pressed (or the left softkey touch screen gesture is used)
inside the Configure Mobile Speak application, a number of options appear. The
list of all possible options is shown below. Note that some of the options only
appear when the left soft key is pressed when configuring an MS Profile, while
others only appear when you are viewing the list of all MS Profiles.
Change
This option
is available when configuring a particular MS Profile setting. A new screen
appears where you can change the currently highlighted item. Note that for
items that only allow ON/OFF settings, pressing “Change” will toggle the
setting instead of opening a new screen.
Apply to All Profiles
This option
is available when configuring a particular MS Profile setting. It applies the
setting of the currently highlighted item to all MS Profiles. For example, if
the currently highlighted item is Volume and it is set to 4, then by pressing
“Apply to All Profiles”, all MS Profiles will be set to have a volume of 4.
Note that the only exception to this is the Profile Name setting. Pressing
“Apply to All Profiles” has no effect on this setting, because it is confusing
to have two profiles with the same name.
Activate
profile
This option
is available when viewing the list of all MS Profiles (either by
pressing the left soft key or by pressing joystick enter, or the equivalent
touch screen gesture). The MS Profile that is currently selected will be
set as the active profile.
Customize
profile
This option
is available when viewing the list of all MS Profiles (either by
pressing the left soft key or by pressing joystick enter, or the equivalent
touch screen gesture). The configurations of the MS Profile that is currently
selected will be opened, so that they can be viewed and modified.
Manage
profiles submenu: Add new profile
This option
is available when viewing the list of all MS Profiles.
A new MS Profile will be created and added to the end of the MS Profile list.
You will first be prompted to enter the name of the new profile. Apart from the
name, this new profile’s settings will be identical to those of the currently
selected profile.
Manage
profiles submenu: Delete profile
This option
is available when viewing the list of all MS Profiles.
The currently selected profile will be deleted. You will first be prompted to
confirm that you wish to delete the profile. Note that it is not possible to
delete the profile that is currently active.
Manage profiles
submenu: Assign to application
This option
is available when viewing the list of all MS Profiles (either by
pressing the left soft key or by pressing joystick enter, or the equivalent
touch screen gesture). It allows you to assign the currently selected MS
Profile to one or more of the applications (both built-in and 3rd-party)
which are installed on your phone. When this option is selected, a list of all
available applications on your phone will be listed alphabetically. Scroll
through the list, marking any application which you would like to assign to the
currently selected MS Profile by pressing joystick enter or the
equivalent touch screen gesture. After selecting an application, note that it will
say “marked” when you scroll through that item once more. Note that since an
application can only be assigned to 1 MS Profile at a time, if you attempt to
assign an application that has previously been assigned to a different MS
Profile, you will be prompted for confirmation of this when saving the
information (if you agree, then the old application assignment will be removed
and the new one will be used instead). This is a very powerful feature of
Mobile Speak, as it provides a convenient way to customize the way Mobile Speak
and Mobile Magnifier work within particular applications.
Product Activation submenu: By SMS
This option will activate all installed Code Factory products (both
trial and full licenses) by SMS. If no activation is performed, Mobile Speak or
Mobile Magnifier will only work for 10 minutes. Please refer to the chapter on
Licensing for more information about activating your Code Factory products.
Product Activation submenu: By Internet
This option will activate all installed Code Factory products (both
trial and full licenses) by Internet. If no activation is performed, Mobile
Speak or Mobile Magnifier will only work for 10 minutes. Please refer to the
chapter on Licensing for more information about activating your Code Factory
products.

Note that
not all of the keys shown in the Command Key list are available on all devices,
so make sure to select an appropriate key for your particular device. If a key
that is not available is selected as the Command Key, it has the same effect as
if “None” were selected.
The initial
setting for Command Key 1 is “Default”.
Command Key submenu: Command key 2
Mobile Speak
allows a second Command Key to be configured. This can be
particularly useful in the case of flip or slider phones like the E75 or E90,
where it may be convenient to have different Command
keys with the keyboard closed or opened. The list of keys that can be selected
and the general usage is identical to that of Command Key 1 – please see the
previous subsection for a full description.
The initial
setting for Command Key 2 is “None”.
Command Key submenu: Command Key Timeout
With this setting, the user can set the maximum time between pressing
the “Command Key” and the subsequently pressed key to be still regarded as a
Mobile Speak command. The default value is 3 seconds.
User
Dictionary
Please
refer to the "User Dictionary" section below for more information on
this feature.
Braille Submenu: Configure Devices
The
“Configure Devices” submenu item of the Braille menu opens the Braille device
manager, which presents a list of the currently paired Braille devices. You can
add additional devices to this list, delete a device, view information about a
device, or connect to the currently selected device.
To add a
Braille device to the list:
1.
Select “Add new device” from the Options menu opened with the left soft
key.
Mobile
Speak will present you with a list of supported devices.
2.
Select your device from the list.
The
Device Manager will perform a Bluetooth search to establish a connection. Once
the device has been configured, you may connect and disconnect it by selecting
“Connect” from the options menu, or by using the Command
+ Dial key shortcut. Note that you can add more than one Braille device in the
Device Manager, so switching between Braille devices is possible.
To delete,
show information, or connect to a device, select the corresponding entry from
the device manager list, and select the appropriate command from the Options
menu.
Braille
Submenu: Turn Braille on/off
This submenu
item of the Braille menu performs the same function as the Command
+ Dial key combination. It will either connect to the currently
configured Braille device (if not connection is currently active), or
disconnect from the device if a connection is active. If no Braille device has
been configured, an appropriate information message is displayed.
Restore
Defaults
This option
will have a different function depending upon where focus is when it is
selected. If it is pressed while customizing an MS Profile, then all the
settings for the MS Profile being customized will be restored to their
defaults. However, if this option is pressed from the initial screen of the
Mobile Speak configuration panel (i.e. the screen with the list of MS Profiles
displayed), then all of Mobile Speak’s factory default settings will be
restored. In both cases, the user will be prompted to confirm in order to
proceed.
Help
A
description of the shortcut to enter keyboard training mode is provided in the
Help menu.
About
The date and
version of Mobile Speak, copyright information, as well as the status of
licenses (for every Code Factory product installed on the phone), the SIM
status (if it is a trial or a phone-number based license and the original SIM
is not in place) and the Device Serial Number (SN) will be spoken.
7.11
TTS
and Voices
Mobile Speak
supports voices from several different text-to-speech technology providers,
including Acapela, Fonix, and Loquendo. You can install as many voices for as
many languages as you want, provided there is enough space on your device's
memory or storage card to accommodate the TTS files. It is strongly advised
that you always install TTS voices to the storage card in order to have as much
free space in the device's main memory for running programs and storing data
that cannot be moved to the storage card.
For each TTS
voice installed, you can configure different parameters including the rate of
speaking, pitch and volume, as well as a user dictionary for pronunciations
that will be used if that voice is selected. For more information about
configuring these and other parameters, please see “Configure Mobile Speak” in
this manual.
An important new
feature in Mobile Speak 4 is the ability to use up to three languages from a
given TTS provider with only a single license. In other words, if you purchase
a license for Mobile Speak with the Acapela TTS, you can use up to three
Acapela voices for the price of one. This can be useful if you prefer different
voices for different types of applications, or if you would like to install
voices in different languages and always have them available. You can also
uninstall a given voice and install a different one from the same TTS provider
as often as you like without obtaining a new license.
If you would like
to install more than three voices from a specific TTS provider, additional
licenses can be purchased. Please contact your distributor for more
information.

Mobile
Speak 4 Touch Interface
Mobile Speak 4 allows you to completely control your device using the touch
screen. You can, of course, combine touch gestures and key commands in order to
obtain the best experience using your device depending on its design and
hardware features. It is always up to you to use touch gestures, keyboard
shortcuts, or both.
Mobile Speak offers several different ways of
interacting with the touch screen. These are referred to as “touch modes”.
There are currently 5 different touch modes available. Two new modes have been
introduced in v4.50: Keypad mode and Joystick mode. In addition, you may use
Quadrant mode (which was the default in v4.0 and v4.01 of Mobile Speak), Review
Cursor mode and Stylus mode. All of these touch modes are described in detail
below.
In v4.50 of Mobile Speak, a new command has
been added to allow users to easily change the touch mode. By pressing Command
+ Volume Down, the touch mode is changed to the next one in the list. Repeat
this command several times until the desired touch mode is activated. Similarly,
Command + Volume Up will activate the previous touch mode. Please note that
currently it may not be possible to use this command from some particular
applications (e.g. the Dialing screen or the Music Player) – in this case, it
will be necessary to first move to a different application to change touch
mode, and then return back to the application of interest.
A new configuration setting called “Touch mode
on startup” allows the
user to choose the touch mode that Mobile Speak will enter into when it is
started. Keypad mode is used as the default in all Mobile Speak profiles.
When inside some touch modes (specifically:
Keypad and Quadrant modes), interaction with the touch screen can be done with
navigation gestures as well as with taps on the screen. With a little practice,
these gestures can be easily mastered and will become second nature.
For example, to simulate the joystick keys in
these modes, a slide up/down/left/right should be performed. To perform a slide, touch the screen
and slide your finger over it in the desired direction, then release the
screen. Touch movements should cover a distance of about 30% of the screen
length or greater, but do not need to span the entire width or height of the
display. Slides should also be performed around the center of the screen, since
many phones have a non-touch-sensitive area around the edges of the device.
Note also that you do not need to slide very fast; it should take between a
half and one second to slide the whole screen width or height.
8.1 Keypad Mode
Mobile
Speak v4.50 includes this new touch screen interaction mode, based on the
concept of a standard numeric keypad. In this 12-key Keypad mode, the touch
screen is divided into 12 virtual keys, arranged just like a phone keypad (1,
2, and 3 at the top; 4, 5, and 6 in the second row; 7, 8, and 9 in the third;
and the star, 0, and hash keys in the bottom row). By accessing the Keypad
mode, you can type numbers and letters just as with a physical keypad,
including using predictive text to compose text messages and email. This input
method allows you to enter text faster than either a virtual keyboard or a
review cursor with an onscreen keyboard.
In
addition, you can combine the numeric keypad keys with the command key to
perform command shortcuts, just as in previous (non-touch) versions of Mobile
Speak. For example, to mute Mobile Speak, you could press the command key
followed by pressing the virtual 0 key at the center bottom of the screen.
Longtime users of Mobile Speak will find this method of accessing commands
familiar, and new users may also find it a convenient alternative to the
standard touch gestures in Quadrant mode.
Besides the
simple taps of number keys, the Keypad mode also includes a short list of
gestures to access all of the navigational features of the phone. Moving left,
right, up or down can be done with a simple slide in the corresponding
direction. If you are in a list and want to move to the next item, for example.
you can perform a slide down on the touch screen. If you keep your finger
pressed against the screen at the end of the slide, the gesture will repeat,
allowing you to move quickly and easily through long lists or menus.
To access
the left and right softkeys, delete characters, or press enter, you can use a gesture
called a "slide back" in one of four directions. For example, to
access the left softkey, you can perform a "slide left and back" by
sliding your finger right-to-left and then left-to-right without releasing your
finger or pausing between the two motions. This gesture may take a few tries to
be able to perform it smoothly, but once you familiarize yourself with it, it
provides a quick and easy gesture to access common functions.
Keypad mode
is activated by default when you first install Mobile Speak. If you would
prefer a different touch mode to be selected at startup, it can be changed in
the “Touch mode on startup” setting inside the General tab of Configure Mobile
Speak. You can also change the touch mode using Command + Volume Up/Down.
Here is a
complete summary of the command assignments in the Keypad mode:
|
slide up* |
move cursor up |
|
slide down* |
move cursor down |
|
slide left* |
move cursor left |
|
slide right* |
move cursor right |
|
slide down and back |
enter/press joystick |
|
slide up and back* |
delete/backspace |
|
slide left and back |
left soft key |
|
slide right and back |
right soft key |
|
screen tap |
keys 1-9, *, 0, # |
* = these
commands can be held down at the end in order to repeat the assigned key.
In order to
make it easy for you to get used to these commands, you can activate Mobile
Speak Keyboard Help by pressing Command + Long tap 5. Once inside Keyboard
Help, you can practice all the different taps and slides, so that you become
familiar with the exact borders of your touch screen and the virtual keys and
also with the slide gestures that you will use to interact with the phone. We
strongly recommend that you spend a few minutes in Keyboard Help mode. Once you
master the above list of taps and gestures, you'll be able to rapidly interact
with your phone in all situations, including writing of text messages using T9
input.
8.2 Joystick Mode
In the Joystick mode, the touch screen is
divided into 9 virtual keys, arranged in a 3 x 3 grid. The central key is
Joystick Enter, while the 4 keys directly above, below, left and right of the
central key correspond to the Joystick up, down, left and right keys. The
bottom left key is the left softkey, and the bottom right key is the right
softkey, and the upper right key is the delete key (the upper left key is
unassigned). This mode is intended for users who prefer to interact with the
phone using taps rather than by slide gestures. It allows easy navigation
through most of the phone's features. When typing a message or dialing a number
however, it will be necessary to change to Keypad mode (or to activate the
virtual keyboard from Quadrant mode). This can be done easily with Command +
Volume Down (and then press Command + Volume Up to return to Joystick mode).
8.3 Quadrant Mode
In this mode, the touch screen has been divided
into 4 virtual keys named 1 to 4 clockwise and starting on the upper-left
corner on the screen. This will sound familiar to users of previous versions of
Mobile Speak Pocket. Imagine that you have 4 keys on the touch screen, and if
you press the upper left corner area you are pressing the virtual key 1. The
upper right part of the touch screen is the virtual key 2, virtual key 3 is
placed near the bottom right corner and, the bottom left part of the touch
screen corresponds to the virtual key 4. Touching a quickly releasing a virtual
key is referred to as a “tap”. For example, tap 1 and hold will show you the
Start Menu/Main Menu of the device, while tap 2 and hold closes the application
you are in.
Some commands have been grouped in order to
give you intuitive access to them. This way you have 3 secondary command groups
named "Speak", "Go-to", and "Settings" command
layouts.
As its name indicates, the Speak command layout
contains commands which will make Mobile Speak give information to you (read
date and time, read device status, repeat last spoken text) and reading
commands.
The Go-to layout allows you to launch
applications, press the soft-keys, move to previous or next control, launch
special tools like the touch keyboard or the application switcher, etc.
The Settings layout allows you to configure
Mobile Speak, mute, speech rate, volume, keyboard echo, etc.
These 3 secondary command layouts are
accessible after the gestures:
·
Tap 1: brings up the
Go-to command layout.
·
Tap 2: brings up the
Settings command layout.
·
Tap 4: brings up the
Speak command layout.
For example, to have Mobile Speak read the
device status you should use the command double tap 2 in the Speak layout. To
do this, you first need to activate the Speak layout with tap 4. Mobile Speak
will say "Speak", indicating that you have activated your desired
layout. Then double tap 2 (read device status) and you will get the desired
information.
Another example: imagine that you want to have
Mobile Speak read the soft keys. To do that just tap 4 (Speak) and then tap 1,
which is the gesture associated with the read soft keys command under the Speak
layout.
In general, you can perform any command with at
most two touch gestures. In addition to this, some gestures are directly
available in the General layout.
Note that when you enter into a secondary
command layout, it is possible to have different functions associated with the
directional slides (more information can be found in the full command
description section). For example, if you tap 2, bringing up the Settings
command layout, sliding up and down will respectively increase and decrease the
volume and sliding left and right will modify the speech rate.
Once you bring up a secondary command layout
there are two ways to go back to the Quadrant mode’s General layout. There's a
timeout which will send you back to the General layout after 10 seconds of
inactivity, or alternatively you can triple tap the screen.
Triple tap is an excellent way to reset, or
"return to normality" in most cases when in Quadrant mode. If you get
lost, simply triple tap the screen to return to the General layout. Moreover,
triple tap will also allow you to turn off mute, exit the review cursor, exit
the virtual touch keyboard, and exit the command list.
Another useful feature to remember is that,
after performing the Speak Softkeys command by tap 4 (speak) + tap 1 (read soft
keys) you have 5 seconds to directly activate the desired soft key by a single
tap 4 (left soft key) or tap 3 (right soft key). During this time you won't
need to press tap 1 (Go-to) and then the desired soft key.
For a full list of the Touch commands available
in Quadrant mode, please refer to the Touch Commands chapter in Appendix A.
8.4 Command List (Accessed from Quadrant Mode)
The command
list is a useful way of using the phone if you do not wish to learn the touch
screen commands as it allows you to reach the available commands through the
touch interface. To activate the command list when in Quadrant mode, perform a
slide and hold gesture (i.e., slide in any direction, then stop moving and keep
your finger on the screen until the voice announcement is heard) and Mobile
Speak will speak "Command List".
Once this
happens, you can access the available commands by sliding up and down in the
same way as if it were a menu. This mode lists the available commands for the
current layout, so by default you have access to Open Start Menu/Main Menu,
Go-to, Settings, Stop speech, Speak, etc; if you are in the "Speak"
command layout then this menu will give you access to the speak specific
commands like read date and time, read current screen, etc. Use the command
list to perform commands if you do not remember the gesture sequence to reach
the desired functionality. For example, you know that tap 4 is
"Speak", but you do not remember where in the Speak command group the
read date and time function may be. In this case you can tap 4 (Speak) and then
slide and hold the screen to have access to the list of commands available on
the Speak group.
The
commands are listed sequentially so you can easily select the one you want. The
available gestures when you launch the Command List are:
· Slide up/down: Move to the
previous/next available command.
· Double tap (anywhere): Execute the
current command.
· Triple tap (anywhere): Close the
command list and return to the default gesture mode for the current command
layout.
· You can also tap and hold and move
your finger up and down around the screen in order to explore the list of
commands.
8.5 Virtual Touch Keyboard (Accessed from Quadrant Mode)
There are
several methods for entering text using Mobile Speak. If your device includes a
physical keyboard, this provides a convenient and efficient method.
Additionally, you can use an external QWERTY or Braille keyboard. The Keypad
mode also allows rapid entry of text, supporting T9 and predictive text
functionality. In addition, Mobile Speak also includes an on-screen virtual
keyboard which allows you to enter text using the touch screen.
The virtual
touch input method works by directly entering the characters on the touch
screen of the device. When you activate this input method, a virtual keyboard
is enabled on the screen. Use the stylus or your finger to select a character,
keeping contact with the screen as you move through the characters. When a
character is selected, Mobile Speak will speak that character. To insert the
character that is currently selected, just lift your finger or the stylus from
the screen. Note that as soon as you release the character held at the tip of
the stylus or finger, it is inserted. The stylus or your finger should
therefore remain pressed to the screen until you find the character that you
wish to insert.
To activate
the virtual keyboard, enter into Quadrant mode and then use tap 1 + tap 4 and
hold. To exit the virtual keyboard, triple tap anywhere on the screen.
There are
five keyboard types in this input method: lower case, upper case, symbol,
numbers, and phone keypad. You can change the current keyboard type using
double tap 2 or double tap 3.
You can
also choose between various input languages by using double tap 1 or double tap
4. The available languages depend on the TTS you have installed. For example,
if you have a French and English voice installed, you will toggle between
QWERTY and AZERTY keyboards.
While you
are writing with the virtual keyboard, use tap 2 to backspace (you do not have
to look for the Backspace key every time you want to delete a character) and
tap 3 to perform the Enter key.
Sliding up/down/left/right allow you
to navigate the text while you are working with the touch keyboard.
The following summary lists the
commands that are available from the virtual keyboard:
Slide Left
Previous Character

* After
performing these commands, one can use single tap anywhere to keep cycling the
command assignment. Note that 5 seconds of inactivity will turn this mode off,
or alternatively you can use triple tap to go back to the Virtual Keyboard.
8.6 Review Cursor Mode
Using Review Cursor mode on touch screen devices allows you to navigate the
phone interface intuitively, by moving your finger over the screen while Mobile
Speak reads the contents as you touch them. To activate Review Cursor mode,
repeatedly press Command key + Volume Up or Command key + Volume Down to move
through the list of touch modes until the Review Cursor mode is enabled. To
return to the original touch mode, repeat the same process until the desired
mode is enabled.
Note also
that the current MS profile’s “Touch mode on startup” setting can be set to
“Review cursor mode”, and then on restarting Mobile Speak, it will change into
Review Cursor mode.
You can
either move your finger around the screen and Mobile Speak will read what is
under your finger, or you can move between the items which are on the screen
with slides up, down, left and right.
· Double tap: select current item.
· Slide left/right: previous/next
character.
· Slide up/down: previous/next line.
· Tap 1: previous word.
· Tap 2: next word.
· Tap 4: move to home.
Note that
not all screens and dialogs are supported yet by the review cursor. If inside
an application that is not yet fully supported, it is suggested to use one of
the other modes (Keypad, Joystick or Quadrant) to navigate around the screen.
8.7 Stylus Mode
In this
mode, you can use the screen without having the Mobile Speak touch interface
enabled. This is useful for sighted people who may need to use the device with
or without Mobile Speak.
To activate
Stylus mode, repeatedly press Command key + Volume Up or Command key + Volume
Down to move through the list of touch modes until the Stylus mode is entered.
To return to the original touch mode, repeat the same process until the desired
mode is enabled.
Note also
that the current MS profile’s “Touch mode on startup” setting can be set to
“Stylus mode”, and then on restarting Mobile Speak, it will change into Stylus
mode
Some touch
command gestures are available even when Stylus Mode is on by pressing the
Command key followed by the gesture. The command key will temporarily allow you
to perform Mobile Speak touch gestures, and once the command key times out,
Stylus Mode will work normally again
9
Braille
Mobile Speak can provide output through electronic
refreshable Braille devices. Both text and control information will be
available in Braille as you navigate around the mobile phone environment.
Furthermore, using devices with Braille input keys, you can create and edit
documents with any of the currently supported Braille grades and languages.
Through the Braille tab found in Mobile Speak’s
configuration utility, users can set up connections with any number of
supported Braille devices and easily switch between two or more of these at any
time. Please refer to the section on configuring Mobile Speak in this document
for more details on the various Braille configuration options which are
available.
9.1
Getting Started
For some devices (including those from HumanWare, BAUM,
and Handy Tech), the first step in using Braille with Mobile Speak is to pair
the Braille display with your device. Please check the documentation for your
Braille device to find out the passcode used to connect with other devices.
This may be specific to the serial number of the Braille device unit.
Otherwise, you may use any string of numbers, normally no shorter than four
digits, like 1234 which is the default passcode used by most Bluetooth-enabled
devices. All Bluetooth devices use an authentication number when users attempt
to establish a connection between them, thereby securing that connection.
Once the Braille device is added in the Braille page,
there is no need to repeat the steps required to set it up for use with Mobile
Speak, and you can toggle Braille on/off at any time. You will only need to
repeat the process when:
·
You perform a hard
reset.
·
You delete the
Bluetooth partnership between your Braille device and your mobile phone.
·
You remove the Braille
device from the Braille page.
·
You completely
uninstall Mobile Speak and reinstall it or upgrade to a new version.
·
Something has changed
with the Braille device that alters its Bluetooth address.
9.2
Entering
and Editing Text Using Braille
When focus lands on an edit
control, Braille output automatically switches to edit mode so that Mobile
Speak displays the text cursor by raising dots 7 and 8. At present, this
tactile cursor is only available when 6- or 8-dot computer Braille is selected.
If there is an uppercase character at the cursor position, the dots will
alternate, meaning that dot 8 is raised while dot 7 is not. If text selection
commands are used, dots 7 and 8 will both appear in all the cells of the
selected text.
When typing text using Grade 1 or
2 Braille, remember that the text is not translated until you press Space or
Enter, or perform a command that moves focus or displays a message. Keep in
mind that the Braille grade used for input is not necessarily the same one set
for Braille output, so use the appropriate commands for configuring input and
output Braille grades in order to be certain.
You can use the backspace command
assigned to the key combination specific to your Braille device while typing in
whichever grade to delete the character to the left of the text cursor. Note that
this command may be used even before the text typed in grade 1 or 2 Braille is
translated. If you wish to clear everything you have typed so far that has not
yet been translated, use the Braille Escape command available on all supported
Braille devices.
10
Magnification
Mobile
Magnifier is a full-screen magnification application that enlarges and improves
readability of screen contents, detects areas of interest to make them more
visible, and offers hotkeys to obtain a magnified view of screen icons
conveying non-textual information. With Mobile Magnifier you can:
· Enlarge screen contents in ten
variable levels of magnification.
· Smooth curves and edges of magnified
fonts and graphics.
· Access seven different color schemes
for better visual contrast.
· Magnify the whole screen or just
areas of interest.
· Easily pan and scroll screen
contents even in magnified view.
Although
licensed separately, Mobile Magnifier can be installed together with Mobile
Speak, making it easy to provide speech output and screen magnification at the
same time if desired. Note that in Symbian devices Mobile Magnifier is always
installed together with Mobile Speak (on supported devices) and cannot be
separately installed.
10.1
Exploring
the Mobile Phone Screen
Although
Mobile Magnifier will automatically detect the area of interest and magnify it
in real-time, there may be instances where freely exploring the entire screen
is needed. In order to do this, you can press and hold the arrow keys at any time while Mobile Magnifier is
running to pan the screen contents.
10.2
Starting
and Stopping Mobile Magnifier
Mobile
Magnifier can be started or stopped in any of the following ways:
· Pressing the Command Key + Long 0
· From the Code Factory folder located
under the phone’s Main Menu
· Tap 2 (Settings) + tap 4 through the
touch screen when in Quadrant mode
10.3
Configuring
Mobile Magnifier
Mobile
Magnifier provides a wide range of configuration settings to fit the needs of
each user and provide the best user experience for each different phone. These
settings can be configured from the Magnification Page found in the Mobile
Speak configuration utility. Please see to the section on Magnifier
Settings in Chapter 7 of this manual for more details. In addition, many
Magnification settings can be adjusted via Command Key shortcuts while in the
Magnification layout. To enter the Magnification layout, first make sure that
the Magnifier is activated. Then press Command + 5 and loop through the layouts
until the Magnification layout is activated. A full list of all the shortcuts
available in the Magnification layout is available in Appendix A.

User
Dictionary
You can change
the way your current TTS voice pronounces words through Mobile Speak’s User
Dictionary.
There are several
ways to access the User Dictionary:
· Command key + Long 4
· In the Configure Mobile Speak application, press
the left soft key and select ‘User Dictionary’.
When opened, the
User Dictionary application shows a list of all the TTSs that you have
installed on your phone. User dictionary tool options are:
· Add new word: adds a case-insensitive word to the user
dictionaries of all the marked TTSs. For example, ‘Hello’ will be considered
the same word as ‘hello’. This option consists of two steps: first, you have to
enter the word to be replaced and then the replacement word. Note that you must
first mark at least one TTS in order to add a new word; otherwise the message
“No dictionaries marked” will appear.
· Add new case-sensitive word: adds a word to the
user dictionary of all the marked TTSs differentiating them by the use of
capital letter. Example: ‘Hello’ will be considered as different to ‘hello’. To
add a new case-sensitive word, follow the same steps above. Note that you must
also first mark at least one TTS in order to add a new word; otherwise the
message “No dictionaries marked” will appear.
· Mark/Unmark: allows you to mark or unmark specific
TTSs, so that operations such as “Add new word” will be performed on multiple
TTSs. Note that pressing the Joystick Enter key toggles the Marked / Unmarked
status of the current TTS.
· Show word list: shows all the words contained in
the selected TTS. It appears as a list, but you can also do a quick search by
typing the word (like in the Contacts application). This feature is useful when
there are hundreds of words. When a word is selected it can be deleted or
edited.
· Refresh dictionary list: updates the TTS list.
This option can be useful, for example, if you have just installed a new user
dictionary via the PC tool and the dictionary has not yet been automatically
updated.
· Reset Dictionary: deletes the user dictionary of
the selected TTS. Note that pressing the Clear key has the same effect.
· Copy Dictionary: Copied the currently highlighted dictionary,
so that it can later be pasted to another TTS. Note that an empty dictionary
cannot be copied.
· Paste Dictionary: Pastes the previously copied
dictionary. This option is only displayed after the Copy Dictionary process has
been performed.
· Help: speaks help information regarding the usage
of the User Dictionary.
Now we also
support the following punctuation signs when adding words to the user
dictionary (for both case-sensitive or insensitive): ! " # $ % & ‘ ( )
* + , - . / : ; < = > ? @ [ \ ] [ ^ _ ` { } ~
Please note
that there is no need to reload the current TTS in order to reflect changes
when adding words. This is done automatically when a word is added or deleted.
Here are some
general things to keep in mind when using the user dictionary:
· You can add phrases to the user dictionary;
however it behaves differently than when adding a single word. Mobile Speak
only replaces phrases that are exactly as defined in the user dictionary. For
example: If we replace "Missed calls", then when speaking "2
Missed calls" it won't be replaced as this text is not exactly the same as
the phrase in the dictionary.
· The user dictionaries are stored on the phone in
files called userdict.dat. There is a different file for each TTS, and
the location of each userdict.dat file depends on the TTS and voice that
are used. The folder where the files are stored is in the format /data/TTS_Name/TTS_Language/[TTS_Voice/].
For example, the Acapela Spanish Javier user dictionary is stored at /data/speechacapela/Spanish/Javier/userdict.dat.
Unless you have first copied a user dictionary to a different memory location,
the files will always be created on the C: drive (i.e. phone memory). If you’d
like to share your User Dictionary with other phones, you simply need to
transfer the userdict.dat file to the other phones and place it in the
same folder.
12 Browsing the Web
The web browser is available on all Symbian 3rd
and 5th edition phones. Mobile Speak provides easy to use and
powerful access to web content via the Web browser, allowing you to navigate
web pages in the way you are used to with your desktop screen reader. In most
phones, this browser is called "Web". In 9.2, 9.3, and 5th
edition phones, it is the default browser and the only one preinstalled on the
device. It can also be launched by doing a long press of the “0” key from the
standby screen. In 9.1 phones, it is not the default browser - the default
browser is typically called "Services" and is also supported by
Mobile Speak. If you have a 9.1 phone and want to use the newly supported Web
browser, make sure that you are launching the correct browser (i.e. the one
typically called "Web").
Mobile Speak provides support for the web browser by
means of a virtual cursor. The default key press functionality has been changed
in order to provide special functionality and allow easy navigation through the
web page. While a page is loading, on most phones you can press “joystick up”
to hear how much data has already been loaded and how much remains (e.g. 123 of
456 KB). Once a page is fully loaded, a page summary with the number of frames,
headings, elements and links will be spoken. Once this is spoken, you can
begin to navigate the page using the Mobile Speak virtual cursor. Note: you
must wait until the page is fully loaded to start using the Mobile Speak
virtual cursor.
Please keep in mind that you will need an Internet
connection in order to use this web browser. If you do not connect via WLAN,
please check the data plan of your operator so that you know exactly what
charges are involved with downloading Internet data.
Below is a summary of the virtual cursor commands
currently available:
· Joystick
down: Move forward one element in the web page.
· Joystick
up: Move back one element in the web page.
· Joystick
right: Jump forward one element based on the current Jump Mode. The Jump Mode
can be changed by pressing the keys 2-8 (see below). The default Jump Mode
whenever a new page is loaded is "Jump by Links".
· Joystick
left: Jump back one element based on the current Jump Mode. The Jump Mode can
be changed by pressing the keys 2-8 (see below). The default Jump Mode whenever
a new page is loaded is "Jump by Links".
· 0:
Toggles between start and end of a page.
· 2:
C for Control. Toggles the Jump Mode between: Jump to same control; Jump to
different control; Jump to graphical control.
· 3:
F for Forms. Toggles the Jump Mode between: Jump by forms; Jump by editors;
Jump by buttons; Jump by checkbox and radio button; Jump by combo box and list
box.
· 4:
H for Headings. Toggles the Jump Mode between: Jump by headings and frames;
Jump by headings; Jump by frames.
· 5:
L for Links. Toggles the Jump Mode between: Jump by links; Jump by non-links;
Jump by in-page links.
· 6: M
for Move. Move forward or backward in the page by a fixed percentage of the
page size (in elements). Options are: 2%, 5%, and 10%. Information about the
current element number in the page is also provided to give an indication of
your current location in the page.
· 7:
P for Paragraph. Toggles the Jump Mode between: Jump by paragraph and block
quotes; Jump by paragraph; Jump by block quotes.
· 8:
T for Tables. Toggles the Jump Mode between: Jump by table and list; Jump by
list; Jump by table.
· 9:
Read to end of page. This will speak the contents of the page, starting at the
current element. Press the * key to stop speaking, and the virtual cursor will
be positioned at the element where you stopped.
· Clear:
Move backwards in the current page using your navigation history. This provides
a convenient way to trace back the steps as you navigate through a page.
· Send
key: Opens a search window, allowing the user to enter a search term. The left
and right joystick keys can then be used to repeatedly jump through and move to
the next found element.
· Enter:
Appropriate behaviour depending on the type of control. For example, when
currently focused on a link, navigate to the link. When currently focused on a
text entry box, open the editor so that text can be entered.
The left and right soft keys have their normal
functionality in the web browser. The left soft key pops up a menu of available
browser options, while the right soft key allows the user to move back to the
previous page.
Note: JavaScript must be enabled in the Web Settings
menu (it is enabled by default, so unless you have disabled it this should not
be an issue).
13 Third-Party Application Support
13.1
QuickWord
Opening
a document with QuickWord
When
QuickWord is opened, a navigable list of options appears. However, when
selecting “Recent documents” or “C:Phone memory”, a list will appear with
respectively, all recently opened documents, or the entire contents of the
accessible phone memory. However, these contents are not currently accessible
with Mobile Speak.
An
alternative and accessible way to access the list of word documents is to use
the phone’s File Manager, which on many phones is located in the “Tools”
folder. Opening File Manager will show a list of files in the phone memory, and
when scrolling through this list, the name of the selected item is spoken. When
selecting a Word document, QuickWord will open this file.
Starting
up QuickWord
When
opening a .DOC file in the File Manager, the QuickWord program will open and
the document will appear in the screen, in “Read Only” mode. This “read only”
view is not accessible with Mobile Speak. However, when selecting Options ->
Edit Document, the text will be in editing mode and will be fully accessible.
If your version of QuickWord does not allow editing, you may need to purchase a
full license of QuickWord in order to be accessible with Mobile Speak.
When in
editing mode, the document’s entire text is spoken. This can be interrupted by
pressing one of the arrow keys. From that point on, the normal Mobile Speak key
commands work, just as in the case of other editor programs (e.g. text
messages).
Reading
a Document with QuickWord
When
starting in editing mode, the entire text will be spoken. This is interrupted
as soon as any key is pressed. Depending on which key is pressed, the
corresponding command will be executed. The most powerful Mobile Speak commands
are available from the “reading layout” (entered by pressing Command Key
+ 5). The most important reading commands are:
· Command Key + #. Speak the entire text.
· Command Key + Long Pressed #. Spell the
current word.
· Command Key + Long Pressed Arrow Up.
Speak the previous line.
· Command Key + Long Pressed Arrow Down.
Speak the next line.
· Command Key + 1. Speak the previous
sentence.
· Command Key + 2. Speak the entire text.
· Command Key + Long Pressed 2. Go to the beginning of the text.
· Command Key + 3. Speak the next
sentence.
· Command Key + 4. Speak the previous
word.
· Command Key + 6. Speak the next word.
· Command Key + Long Pressed 6. Speak the
current word.
· Command Key + 7. Speak the previous
paragraph.
· Command Key + 8. Speak from the current cursor
position.
· Command Key + Long Pressed 8. Move the cursor to the end of the
text.
· Command Key + 9. Speak the next
paragraph.
Editing
a Document with QuickWord
When
inserting a new word, each letter is spoken out. After typing a space, the last
inserted word is entirely spoken out. When the editor is in T9 mode, after
pressing a new letter, the entire word is spoken out.
13.2
Fring
Starting
Fring
When
starting Fring, it will attempt to connect to the Internet. If no connection is
available, it will inform you. All necessary information during this process is
spoken by Mobile Speak.
When
successfully logged in, a list of contacts as added during the configuration or
during previous settings will appear on the screen. When moving the cursor up
and down, the highlighted contact will be spoken out.
Press the
middle button to select the contact. The chat window will open.
Chatting
with Fring
The chat
window consists of two sections: the upper section is the chat section and the
lower section is the text input section, where the cursor is always located.
All the text that you type will appear in this section.
To send
written text to the other party in the chat session, click on the center button
(recommended). Alternatively, you can press the left soft key to open the
Options menu and then select Send.
When the
other party responds, a ringtone will be played. At this point, you have three possibilities
to hear the received text. For all three possibilities, you must set the window
to “Reading Layout” (by pressing Command Key + 5).
· Command Key + Long Pressed Arrow
Down - speak the last received line.
· Command Key + Long Pressed Arrow Up
- speak all previously unspoken text from beginning to end. If no new text has
arrived since the last time this command has been pressed, it will speak only
the previous line (the line above the line that was spoken the last time).
· Command Key + # - speak the entire
text from the chat section.
To leave
the chat window, click Options (upper left button) and then scroll down until
you can select Close.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
Under no
circumstances and under no legal theory, tort, contract, or otherwise, shall
Code Factory or its dealers and resellers be liable to you or any other person
for any damages including, without limitation, indirect, special, incidental,
or consequential damages of any character including, without limitation,
damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction,
or any and all other commercial damages or losses, even if Code Factory shall
have been informed of the possibility of such damages, or for any claim by any
other party. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages, so this limitation and exclusion may not apply to
you. Code Factory shall not be liable for any damages under this agreement.
8. U.S.
GOVERNMENT RESTRICTED RIGHTS.
If the
Software is acquired under the terms of a GSA contract, use, reproduction or
disclosure is subject to the restrictions set forth in the applicable ADP
Schedule contract. If the Software is acquired under the terms of a DOD or
civilian agency contract, use, duplication or disclosure by the government is
subject to the restrictions of this license in accordance with 48 C.F.R. 12.212
of the Federal Acquisition Regulations and its successors and 48 C.F.R.
227.7202-1 of the DOD FAR Supplement and its successors.
9.
EMERGENCY CALLS.
The devices
on which the Software operates use radio signals, wireless, and landline
networks as well as user-programmed functions. Because of this, connections in
all conditions cannot be guaranteed.
Therefore,
you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for essential
communications (for example, medical emergencies). Emergency calls may not be
possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain network services and/or
phone features are in use. Check with local cellular service providers to
determine the methods for placing emergency calls.
To make an
emergency call:
A) if the
phone is not turned on, switch it on. Check for adequate signal strength. Some
networks may require that a valid SIM card be properly inserted in the phone.
B) press
the hang up key as many times as necessary (for example, to exit a call, to
exit a menu, etc.) in order to clear the display and prepare the phone for
calls.
C) key in
the emergency number for your present location (for example, 911 or other
official emergency number). Emergency numbers vary by location.
D) press
the dial key. If certain features are in use, you may first need to turn those
features off before you can make an emergency call.
Consult
your local cellular service provider for more information.
When making
an emergency call, remember to give all the necessary information as accurately
as possible. Keep in mind that your wireless phone may be the only means of
communication at the scene of an accident – do not end the call until given
permission to do so.
10.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.
According
to the regulations in force referring to royalties, especially the revised text
of “Ley Española de Propiedad Intelectual” approved by “Real Decreto
Legislativo 1/1996” of 12th April, in Articles 1, 5.2, 8, 95 and further
concurrent ones, and as per the international agreements on this matter, in
particular the Bern Agreement as well as the Geneva Convention and Council
Management of European Communities of 14th May 1991 about legal protection of
computer programs, Code Factory, S.L. is the sole owner of the intellectual
property rights arising from Mobile Speak, Mobile Magnifier, Mobile

forbidden to modify, duplicate and/or distribute either totally or partially
the Software or any of its components without the authorization of Code
Factory, S.L. Such a practice will constitute a legal crime and will be

agreement will terminate automatically if you fail to comply with the
limitations described above. On termination, you must (i) discontinue your use
of the Software, and (ii) permanently erase or destroy all your copies of the
Software and Documentation.
12.
MISCELLANEOUS.
The Code
Factory products require your phone to be subscribed to a network to be fully

agreement represents the complete agreement concerning this software between
the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and representations between
them.
In order to
amend this agreement, a written addendum executed by both parties is required.
The
acceptance of any purchase made by you is expressly made conditional on your
assent to the terms set forth herein, and not those contained in your purchase
agreement, if any.
