The
Big Button with Steps and Levels
is a powerful voice output tool with a single large
Play button. A removable transparent cap snaps onto the Play button and has an opening on top for
sliding in overlays or icons. Remove the cap by firmly pulling up on the lip until it dislodges. Then pull
on the top of the cap to remove it. The cap extends nearly to the table surface,
creating a large activation area with an extremely
low profile. In fact, you can play a message
without lifting your hand off the table. Only a
little pressure is needed to activate speech.
Volume
Volume up and down buttons are on the
front right side. The Big Button beeps
when you adjust the volume up or down.
