-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Maria Kristic Sent: Monday, June 21, 2004 10:04 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: re: [Braillenote] Deleting all planner items Your first question: Deleting everything in the planner. One method is to use the [SPACE with dot 1], [READ with U], and [SPACE with dot 4], [READ with O], commands to read through the previous and next entries. On every entry, you would press [BACKSPACE with dots 1-4], [CONTROL with I], to cancel the appointment, press Y for "Yes" to confirm deletion, and if it was a recurring appointment, press A to delete all of them (instead of just the one particular appointment you were currently focussing on). Alternatively, you could erase all your Planner files, move your old planner files (those created by earlier versions of KeySoft before 5.1), and re-install KeySoft 5.1 to create a blank planner. I just tested this before writing about it, and it worked well on my unit. If you want to do this: 1) From the Main Menu, press F for File Manager. 2) Press E to select the Erase option. 3) At the "Drive?" prompt, press F to select the Flash Disk. 4) At the "Folder Name" prompt, type KeyPlan. 5) At the "File Name?" prompt, [press SPACE with dots 3-5], [type a star [*], for the multi-character wild card, which will select all files. 6) After you've pressed ENTER, the BN will tell you that 5 files were selected, and it will ask you to confirm deletion. Type N for No to have all 5 of the files deleted. 7) You're now told that "5 files were erased", and you're back at the File Manager. Press M to select the Move Option. 9) At the "Drive?" prompt, press F to select the Flash Disk. 10) At the "Folder Name" prompt, press [SPACE with T], [CONTROL with T], to change from Folder List View to Directory Tree View. Type "/KeyPlan/Old Planner Files" (without the quotes, with the spaces, and remember the two slashes, which you must use when typing in directories to separate the "layers"). If you're using a BT, type this in Computer Braille. 11) At the "File Name" prompt, type the multiple-character wild card again as stated above, and press ENTER. 12) You will be told that 2 files were selected. Press N for "No" at the prompt to confirm each one, and you will be told that 2 files were moved. 13) You're once again at the File Manager. Press F for the Folder Manager. 14) Press E to select the Erase Folder option. 15) At the "Erase folder from which drive?" prompt, press F to select the Flash Disk. 16) At the "Folder Name" prompt, change into Directory Tree View as explained above. Type /KeyPlan/Old Planner Files as explained above, and press ENTER. 17) You'll be asked to confirm deletion, so press Y to do so, and the folder should now be erased. 18) Now, you'll be told that "1 folder erased" 0 files erased." Return to the Main Menu with [SPACE with dots 1-2-3-4-5-6], [MENU KEY]. 19) Re-install KeySoft 5.1. After you reset to the version of KeySoft burned into ROM, you may get a prompt about "Working Language?" Press ENTER to confirm English, and although it may take a few seconds, you'll be returned to the Main Menu. 20) After you finish the last reset of installation (a simple Reset with no keys held down), you'll be asked if you wish to import your "old" planner files (the ones created by an earlier version of KeySoft). Press N for "No", and they won't be imported. You'll be returned to the Main Menu. 21) Your planner is now blank. Note that the first time you enter it, you will be prompted for the "Working language for planner?" Press ENTER to confirm English, and you won't be prompted for it again. Regarding your second question, it's recommended that, if you don't plan to use the BN for a long period of time, you charge it. This is to avoid the battery's going flat. Right after the battery has gone flat, recharging the battery will re-calibrate the batter gauge if that was your intent. Apparently, after a certain time, the battery goes so flat that recharging doesn't accurately measure the gauge capacity, so you will have to run it flat again, and charge immediately after it goes flat to get an accurate gauge calibration.
