1 WELCOME
Congratulations on your purchase of the PageFlip Butterfly Bluetooth pedal!
This product was designed to meet the needs of musicians, people with
disabilities, and avid readers who struggle with the challenge and inconvenience of page turning. PageFlip Butterfly works exclusively with digital
documents, web pages, and image collections on any tablet or computer.
By simply tapping the dual pedal of the PageFlip Butterfly, the digital content can now be flipped or scrolled in either the forward or reverse directions for convenient hands-free page turning.
The PageFlip Butterfly emulates a standard keyboard and works with
any software that uses keyboard strokes to navigate through digital files.
For added versatility, the user may select among three modes for the
dual pedals: PageUp/PageDown, Up/Down arrow, and Left/Right arrow.
Changing modes is as simple as pressing a button. No software installation or programming is required.
The PageFlip Butterfly is ideal for musicians who can now keep their
hands, and their focus, on their instruments rather than struggle with turning sheet music. It is also ideal for people with disabilities who can more
easily tap a pedal than attempt to manipulate pages of a standard book or
magazine. The convenient mode buttons maximize versatility for use with
a wide variety of software to scroll, browse, and navigate through eBooks,
PDF files, Word, Powerpoint, web pages, and images.
PageFlip Butterfly is compact, silent, reliable, and easy to use. Since
it works with digital content, it guarantees 100% reliability in turning one
page at a time without moving parts or noise. Just pair the pedal with a
Bluetooth-enabled computer, open up any digital file, and tap the pedal to
begin enjoying hands-free reading. Be prepared to enjoy the benefits of
the PageFlip Butterfly Bluetooth pedal for automatic page turning!

Simply open a digital file and press either pedal of the PageFlip

Up/Down arrow and Left/Right arrow.

condition.

Small lightweight pedal operates on two AA batteries. On average,
two AA batteries will last about a year.
