5 Using the Tobii Dynavox I-Series+
No skill other then reading is necessary for setting up the Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ device. Follow this User´s Manual and the
Quick Start Manual.
5.1 Starting the Device
Start the device in one of the following ways:
• Press the power button on the right side of the device. (Position 9 in Figure 3.2 Bottom, Left and Right Side, page 17)
• Activate a configured Switch (see 6.3 Switches).
When you have started the device, the Power LED will shine blue or green depending on if the device is connected to AC or on
batteries. For more information about the LED Behavior, see Appendix C Computer Device States of Operation, page 85.
5.1.1 Password Information
The Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ device is configured to start up, using the operating system present, without a password. Though
unusual, there are situations in which the password window could plausibly pop up; for example, when creating a new user in
the operating system, when returning from the operating system’s sleep mode or when downloading software updates from the
internet.
Creating a new windows user and downloading updates from the internet could possibly compromise the system and
software settings of the operating system that have been set and installed at Tobii Technology.
Should the password window pop up, requiring a password, the default password on all Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ devices is, "
Tobii Dynavox" (case sensitive). In order to type in the password use the Windows On-Screen Keyboard or an external USB
keyboard (not included).
If you decide to change the password, be sure to write it down in a safe place for later use.
Suggested place to keep new password: ________________________
Without the operating system’s access password, Tobii Dynavox Support may be unable to assist you with any future
difficulties.
5.1.2 Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ Welcome Guide
When you start your Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ Device for the first time you will be greeted by the Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ Wel-
come Guide. The guide is a setup wizard that will walk you through some steps that will help you make the most of your device.
Follow the instructions and select on Next to get to the next page of the Guide.
5.2 Shutting Down the Device
The device should be shut down using one of the following ways:
• Use the start menu in Windows (recommended when possible).
• Press a configured Switch for two to seven seconds.
Pressing the Switch for more than 7 seconds will shut down the device immediately, disregarding any unsaved
changes.
• Through the communication software installed on the device
Should you be unable to shut the device down using either of the above, you can hold the power button on the right side of the
device down for seven seconds. The device will consequently shut down immediately, without waiting for open applications to
close.
This will not work if the side buttons have been disabled in the Tobii Dynavox I-Series+ Control Center. For more in-
formation, see 6.1.2 Disable All Buttons, page 47.
