Vadelma setup

Kolibre Vadelma navigation

To navigate in a book or in the menus with Kolibre Vadelma you will need a control panel, such as a keyboard or a number pad keyboard (numpad) with an USB interface. Kolibre Vadelma is by default designed to work with a numpad, but can also be configured to work with other control panels. And who knows? Perhaps speech recognition in the near future?

The keys on the numpad are arranged in pretty much the same manner as the keys on common DAISY players . The up, down, left, right arrow keys are used to switch navigation level and move back and forth in a publication. The number 5 key is used for play and pause.

In the demo the keys are arranged as follows:

• Tab-key (upper left corner on this numpad): Start and standby
• Backslash: Increase volume
• Star: Decrease volume
• Minus: Increase voice speed
• Plus: Decrease voice speed
• Key 1: Bookmarks
• Key 2: Down arrow and confirm
• Key 3: Quick menu
• Key 4: Left arrow
• Key 5: Play, pause and confirm
• Key 6: Right arrow
• Key 7: Rewind (30 seconds during playback)
• Key 8: Up arrow and exit
• Key 9: Home (library)
