4.1.1.3. Setting of folders
There will be certain places in your folder structure that you would like to visit often, for
instance your shopping list, your favorite music and your phone number list. You could
now always step your way through the whole folder structure to get there, or you can
create quick jumps to these locations - be it in the internal memory or the SD memory
card.
Setting such shortcuts is straightforward. You can select among 5 shortcuts. To set one,
enter the according folder and press “Selector” plus one of the 5 front buttons
continuously. After 3 seconds, Milestone 312 announces the location, which means it now
is stored as the folder that belongs to this button.
In order to jump to this folder from anywhere, simply press “Selector” plus the according
front button briefly and youll find yourself there.
Attention: It is possible that your Milestone 312 has already 5 pre-installed folders which
are directly selectable via shortcuts. Of course you can change the destination folder for
this shortcuts again.
Hint: Under Local Settings you can activate Jump Back Feature. Therewith you can jump
back to the previous position you have been before using a quick jump to a defined folder.
This feature uses the combination “Selector” and “Mode”. Please be aware that when you
activate the Jump Back Feature in the Local Settings you can only use 4 shortcuts for
quick jumps because the combination “Selector” and “Mode” is used for the Jump Back
Feature.
4.1.1.4. Voice labeling of folders
Besides typing the name for a folder via computer connection and afterwards let it be read
by Milestones Text to Speech converter, you can also voice label folders directly on
Milestone 312. To start recording a name for the current folder you are in, for example
“Music for tingly moments”, push and hold “Rec” and then after a click in addition press
“Mode” continuously. Milestone announces “folder” and then you start talking your
personal spoken folder name. After your announcement, let go of both buttons and you will
hear the sound sequence “high pitched-low pitched”. This new voice label is heard the
next time you reach this folder.
The recorded voice label is discarded if it is shorter than 0.5 seconds and the old voice
label will remain. A voice label may be changed at any time by recording a new one. To
completely remove a self recorded voice label, you need to delete the file “FOLDER.NAM”
within the given folder via the computer.
Hint: If you want to voice label an SD memory card you can do that with the same
procedure. Go to the highest possible level, which is “Drives” and select “External
Memory”. Now proceed the same way as when you voice label a normal folder.
From now on your announcement appears when you plug in the memory card.
Attention: When a folder has a written name and a voice label, the voice label will be read.
4.1.1.5. Fast Jump
Fast Jump is a navigational function, which is usable in the Audio device during the
playback of a file. Fast Jump is especially useful in longer files. It opens the possibility to
jump into sections defined by the length of the file. Therefore push and hold “Selector” and
in addition push on “Play”. This combination starts Fast Jump and additionally let you jump
into the middle half of the current file.
