10 Additional modules
10.1 Overview
VarioPro acts as the base module for ‘docking’ various additional modules.
These modules expand the functionality of VarioPro and allow optimum use of
different applications according to the user’s personal preferences.
Various modules are available whose keys, buttons and functionality allow the
various system requirements to be coordinated in the most efficient manner. The
modules’ ‘building block’ principle allows several modules to be attached to each
other or on both sides of VarioPro. They are screwed firmly to VarioPro so that any
unintentional loosening of the modules when working is avoided.
The additional modules can be used as stand-alone devices without being linked to
VarioPro (in Version 1 this option is only available with the magnification module). In
such cases the appropriate driver from the installation CD must be loaded.
The modules and their operators are described below. Which functions these
operators perform depends on the individual functions loaded onto the modules
themselves. These are usually application- and user-specific and dependent on the
screen reader. For this reason a more detailed description cannot be given here.
