ActilinoOperation of the ActilinoPage 32• [Pos1/End] (Chord k or Chord $): If the cursor is located within the text field, it willjump to the beginning/end of the field.• [Cursor Routing Keys]:o If the cursor is located within the text field, it will jump to the position of thecursor routing key you pressed, if that position is within the text field.o If a cursor routing key above a data field is pressed, that field will be activatedso that you can edit it.Once you press [TRC] after editing the text field, the Actilino will first check whether the newappointment conflicts with any other appointment already stored in the data base. If this isthe case, you will be notified and you can then either edit the new appointment some moreor save it anyway. The appointment is entered into the Scheduler's database by firstdetermining the correct place for the appointment and then updating the database.When the appointment is stored, two signal tones are emitted. If there are only a fewappointments stored in the database, the two tones will sound very close together, but themore appointments that are contained in the database, the longer the pause between thetwo-tone signals. However, it is important that you wait and listen for both tone signals or, ifyou have disabled the tone signals ((O)ptions, (T)one signals), that you wait until theappointment schedule reappears on the Braille display. Any premature action or shuttingdown of the device can damage the appointments file or even the entire file system. Toutilize the Scheduler's functions most efficiently, we therefore recommend that you take timenow and then to delete appointments that are no longer needed from the appointments database. There is further information on this topic below.5.1.4.3 Entering Appointments with Variables (Recurring Appointments)The input fields for an appointment permit the entry not only of numeric values, but alsothe star symbol (*) for a variable. To enter the star symbol, you can simply move past themaximum or minimum value permitted for the input field. You can also enter the starsymbol directly.The Scheduler interprets the star symbol to mean that the appointment is not restricted toa fixed value. Instead, the appointment recurs when the corresponding date input fieldchanges with the actual date. For example, if you enter a star for the day input field foryour appointment, that appointment will recur every day. A few examples will illustrate themanagement of appointments with variables. A description of the example is followed bythe settings entered into the Scheduler's input fields in the following examples.• Every Friday at 4:15 PM: "Fr *.*.* 16:15"• On every 5th of the month at 10 AM: "* 05.*.* 10:00"• On every 1st of the month during the year 2005 at 12 noon: "* 01.*.05 12:00".• On 02/01/04, with notification upon power up: "02.01.04 *:*". The day of the weekdoes not need to be set, because it is updated automatically after the date has beenentered.Once you enter a variable appointment or confirm it after it has occurred, the Scheduler willinform you when that appointment will occur the next time.Please note: |
