Display

ECTACO SAT-1600 features a large-size touch screen with efficient windowsdriven graphic interface.

By tapping certain types of screen items – a push-button or pre-highlighted text – you perform an action associated with this item. In most windows or dialog boxes, tap Done to accept changes or Cancel to exit without saving any changes.

ECTACO SAT-1600 SAT-Words Tutor User Manual

Stylus

Tap the screen with the supplied pointing device called the stylus which, when not in use, is conveniently kept in a special slot at the side of the device’s back panel.

The stylus is especially useful for operations, which cannot be performed by the control wheel, for example, highlighting an arbitrary text fragment or a multi-word translation in a dictionary entry.

♦ Note: If, for some reason, using the stylus does not provide the desired effect,

you may need to recalibrate the screen (see page 12).

Screen backlight

This feature allows for easy viewing of the device screen regardless of an external light source.

ECTACO SAT-1600 SAT-Words Tutor User Manual

• When the device is on, press and hold the On/Off button for approximately two

seconds to turn the backlight on.

ECTACO SAT-1600 comes with a hard plastic cover to protect the screen when the device is not in use. To attach the cover, insert the pegs on the cover into the holes on either side of the device. To detach the cover, gently snap the pegs out of the holes. We recommend that you keep the cover attached when you are not using your ECTACO SAT-1600.

Power Supply

ECTACO SAT-1600 is powered by two AAA (LR03) batteries. Please insert the batteries before connecting your device to a PC. Use the universal indicator to check the current condition of the batteries (see page 11). Replace the batteries when the indicator runs low.

when the power is on. If you experience difficulties turning the device off,

press the RESET button on the back of the device and restart the system.

• Remove the battery compartment cover by sliding it away from the device.

• Remove the used batteries and replace them with new ones.

♦ Note: Do not mix old and new batteries.

• Make sure to place the batteries according to the polarity marks (+ -) inside the

battery compartment.

sure the cover sits in place properly.

ECTACO SAT-1600 SAT-Words Tutor User Manual
