Spell Check Settings
To change Spell Check settings in Control Panel, you need to enter the master
password, which you can set using AlphaSmart Manager.
You can change these spell check settings:
• Turn Spell Check off and on. To change this setting, move the cursor
next to it and press enter. If spell check was on, it will turn off; if it was off,
this will turn it on again. When spell check is off and you attempt to use it
in AlphaWord Plus, the NEO will notify you that spell check is off.
• Turn add words to user dictionary off and on. The user dictionary is
made up of words that the NEO user has added to a dictionary during a
spell check. For example, if the spell check flagged the user’s name as being
misspelled, the user may have added his or her name to the dictionary so it
won’t be marked misspelled again. This setting controls whether users are
allowed to add words to a user dictionary during the spell check. To change
this from on to off or from off to on, move the cursor next to the setting and
press enter.
• Delete user dictionary. This setting deletes the user dictionary. Use
caution when selecting this setting; you can’t recover a user dictionary
that’s been deleted. (You can, however, send a new user dictionary to
devices by using AlphaSmart Manager. See the AlphaSmart Manager 2
User Manual for details.)
• Add new word to user dictionary. This setting lets you add words to
the user dictionary, one word at a time. To use it, move the cursor next to
the setting and press enter. Then, enter one word you want to add and
press enter; the NEO will notify you that the word has been added. Press
any key to leave the setting. Repeat these actions for each word you want to
add.
Note: If you have a big list of words you want to add, it’s more efficient to
create a text file of words and send it to your NEO using AlphaSmart
Manager.
