Before you start

This Tutorial covers most features of SpeakOn CalcPad (simply referred to as SpeakOn in this manual).

The standard keyboard keys are specified in square [ ] brackets; you can use the equivalent numerical keypad in the usual way. The notations used are those described in the page 'Operation considerations, keyboards and keys' notation'.

As SpeakOn is self-voicing, read 'How to operate SpeakOn alongside your screen reader'. After you have learnt how to start SpeakOn, learn how to adjust the speech and audio. Then learn about the Calculator task which enables you to perform calculations in conjunction with its main menu. Through its main menu you can also perform important general operations such as checking for version information, updating SpeakOn and changing global synthesizer, voice and messages settings.
