1. I put my CD in and nothing happens.
To install the software, do the following:
• Click on ‘My Computer’. This is either on the desktop of your computer or
in the Windows Start Menu.
• This will open a window showing all your computer drives. Double-click on
your CD drive (usually the D drive) and you will see a list of everything on
the CD. There will be an icon called ‘Setup’. Double-click on this icon and
the software installation will start.
2. I have installed the program but no text appears in the menu.
To complete the installation you must restart your machine. After a reboot, all text will appear.
3. How do I set switches up?
It’s a popular misconception that switches plug directly into your computer when used
with switch accessible software. You actually need to plug them into a Switch Interface.
These come in various shapes and sizes including switch boxes and roller/joysticks
(see www.inclusive.co.uk).
The most popular interfaces are dedicated devices that sit between the switch and the
computer and convert the switch press into the press of a chosen keyboard key. The software
recognises this key press (usually Space and/or Enter) and acts accordingly. When using two
switches (one to scan, the other to select), all Inclusive Technology software uses the same
key presses: Space to scan and Enter to select. Some switch interfaces are programmed
using their own software; others are simply a case of plug-in and play. If you require further
help regarding switch set-up, please contact us.
