1.2 Physical Description of Victor Reader ClassicX
1.2.1 The Face of the Player
The built-in speaker is located on the upper left corner of the face.
On the top center, there are three pairs of up and down keys. From left to right, these are the
Tone, Volume
and
Speed
controls.
Beneath the Tone, Volume and Speed controls, you will find the four arrow shaped navigation
keys
UP, DOWN, LEFT
and
RIGHT
allowing you to easily move through the structure of a book.
To the left of the four navigation keys, midway down the player, there are two keys. The upper
one is the
Information
key. It gives you information on the book, such as the number of pages,
the total playtime, the playtime elapsed, and the current page. The second key is the
Bookmark
key used to insert a bookmark.
Beneath the four navigation keys you will find the:
Rewind, Play/Stop
and
Fast-Forward
keys.
To the left of the
Rewind
key and below the
Bookmark
key, you will find the
Sleep
key. It is oval
shaped and slightly recessed from the surface. It has an amber LED indicator above it.
To the right of the
Fast-Forward
key and slightly up, you will find two more keys. The upper one,
which is slightly recessed, is the
Power
key. Above it you will find a green LED indicator. Beneath
the

(identified with a single downward tactile mark)

1.3 The Limited Interface
Some libraries or dealers may have chosen to limit the functionality of your Victor Reader
ClassicX. If your player is operating in limited mode, then the following keys will behave
differently:
The
Bookmark
key as well as the four
Navigation
arrow keys will be disabled. No audible beep
will be heard when pressing these keys.
Tapping the
Fast-Forward
and
Rewind
keys will not activate the
Undo/Redo
features. Only a
beep will be played when pressing these keys.
NOTE:
If you have a limited player and wish to restore the extended functions please contact
your dealer or library.
