Note: if you are concerned about losing Bluetooth connection settings, you
may wish to activate the “Auto disconnect Bluetooth at 10%” setting in the
“Global options”. If this item is set to “On”, the Braille EDGE 40 alerts you
and disconnects from a Bluetooth device when the battery level drops to
10%.
2.6 Reset and Hard reset
1. If the Braille EDGE 40 does not respond to keystrokes or commands, it
may be necessary to reset the unit. To perform a soft reset of the Braille
EDGE 40, press the “Reset” button on the rear panel. Do NOT hold the
“Reset” button for more than 5 seconds.
Note: it takes about 15 seconds for the unit to reboot.
2. If pressing the "Reset" button does not revive the Braille EDGE 40 or the
battery is completely depleted, you may need to perform a ‘Hard reset’. You
can use a toothpick or the end of a paperclip to press the
‘Hard reset’
button. Be careful when pressing the
‘Hard reset’ button as pressing too
hard or using an end too small may damage the device. If you press the
“Hard reset” button on the rear panel then press the “power” button on the
front panel, Braille EDGE 40 reboots, initializing all settings to their factory
defaults.
2.7 Set date and time
It is important for use with the Schedule Manager and alarm functions, that
the date and time is set correctly. To set the date and time, follow the

Press “t (dots-2-3-4-5)” to open “Date and Time”. Press “Control-s (dots-2-
3-
4)”, or press “alt” to open the Menu and press “enter” on “set”.
