Technical Review Draft
NevoSL Quick Start Guide
1/10/2005
Behind this cover letter is the Technical Review Draft. Please review this preview document carefully, paying attention to the following things:
The technical correctness of the information presented
The completeness of the information presented
The accuracy and applicability of the screen captures and graphics
(e.g., are they the most recent versions, do they show appropriate data, etc.)
The market positioning (e.g., have we identified the motivators for users to operate the product, does the document support your market drive and positioning)
Any questions we’ve embedded in the document (questions are called out in red, underlined text)
Do not worry about writing inaccuracies or awkward phrasing. While you are free to point them out, be aware that we have not reviewed this document for grace or style yet. Because this draft is intended to focus your attention on the technical details, and in order to deliver it to you as quickly as possible, we have focused on covering the information to the best of our understanding. We intend to perform a developmental edit on the draft while you are performing a technical review.
Please use a different color ink than black. Small edits are extremely difficult to see – if we can’t see them, we can’t make them. If you must use a black pen, please circle all edits (especially small ones).

This draft contains the following known issues. Please initial next to each one to indicate that you have read it.
All cross references refer to page numbers, even if the referred area is on the same page. Since pagination is not yet final, we
must do this to ensure that the final cross references are correct. We will address this issue in the Final Review draft.
My emulator’s configuration screens appear to be inactive. I need several of these screens for the document; I have called out which ones.
There’s some new line art required; please look for those requests. Let me know if I need to contact my artist to supply them.
The pagination is approximate at this point; the new graphics will change the pagination considerably, so do not worry about excessive white space or odd page breaks; those will be addressed in the next draft.

incorporates Universal Plug-and-Play (UPnP)
, which will automatically
discover new digital media content and devices.
NevoSL can be completely customized to match your home theater system.

Getting to Know Nevo
SL
NevoSL provides fully-customizable control of your home theater devices and digital media.
Its touch-sensitive screen is software-based, so you or your installer can include only those controls you actually use. For more information on
SL
customizing Nevo
, see Nevo Studio User’s Guide.
NevoSL’s MediaManager is incorporated into its touchscreen, as well as being available for installation on your Windows XP
TM
PC. For more
information on MediaManager, see Nevo MediaManager User’s Guide.
The Nevo remote contains the following types of controls:
customizable hard buttons on the remote’s front that let you control common device features (see “Hard Buttons” on page 3
fully-interactive touchscreen that provides only those device control you use the most (see “Touch Screen” on page 5).

Hard Buttons

Do we want to tell them about the hard reboot (the on/off switch behind the little cover here or in “If You Have Problems”?)
NevoSL includes several hard buttons on the front and sides. Some are customizable and some are not.

The hard buttons on NevoSL’s front can be customized to your preference. For example, you or your installer may have configured them to always control your cable converter’s functions. These buttons are labeled for convenience. The labeled buttons will always perform the same action on the same device, regardless of which set of controls appears on the touchscreen.
An additional set of programmable, unlabeled buttons appear immediately below the touchscreen, above the hard buttons. These buttons’ functions change from screen to screen—a label appears on the touch screen above them to indicate what they have been programmed to do.

Fixed Buttons and Ports

Changing the Battery

Will they ever need to change the battery? Should they do it, or should they get their installer to do it? If they should do it, I will need three images: opening the battery cover, the battery cover off with no battery inside, closing the battery cover.

Battery Use And Safety

Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly.
Do not burn or bury batteries.
NevoSL QUick Start Guide 7

Setting NevoSL Up

Use only new batteries of the required size.
Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (e.g.,
standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different capacities.
If you do not plan to use the remote control for an extended period, remove
the batteries. They can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.

About Battery Life

As with all battery-operated devices, battery life will vary depending on
SL
use, including frequency and duration of key presses on the Nevo
screen.
Battery life may be extended by performing some or all of the following:
Reducing the brightness level of the display screen (see “Changing
Backlight Settings” on page 12).
Reducing the on time of the display screen (see “Changing Power Settings”
on page 9).
Setting NevoSL Up
Your N e v oSL comes preset from your installer with the software you need to operate your home entertainment devices. There are some additional settings that you may want to customize yourself.
