guidelines for safe operating distances.
Do not use the ReadEasy Evolve near inadequately shielded medical
devices.
There are magnets located in the main unit, the camera arm, the Wireless
Control Pad and the Wireless Control Pad Simplifier. Do not put any of
these items on or near your chest if you have a pacemaker fitted.

Feature Pack connections
All of the input and output connections are located on the rear of the
ReadEasy Evolve, in a row running horizontally in-line with the power
connection. The connections are directly above the camera storage
section, 2.5 inches (6.5cm) up from the base.
USB 3.0 port 1
HDMI port
USB 3.0 port 2
DisplayPort
WARNING:
USB, HDMI and DisplayPort connectors only fit into their sockets
one way. Only a small amount of force is required to plug in the
connectors and too much may damage the connector and socket.
Any damage to the connectors or sockets is not covered by
warranty so please take care.
7
HDMI and DisplayPort for monitor or television
connection
The HDMI and DisplayPort can be used to
connect your ReadEasy Evolve to a
monitor or television enabling you to also
use it like a powerful desktop video
magnifier to magnify and enhance the view
of your documents.
An HDMI cable is included with your
Feature Pack.
The HDMI port is located at the back of the ReadEasy Evolve. When the
rear of the unit is facing you, it is the second port in from the left-hand side.
It is 3.15 inches (8 cm) from the left-hand side and 2.5 inches (6.5cm) up
from the base. The port has a Roman numeral ‘I’ directly above it.
There is also a DisplayPort
connector, labelled with the Roman
numeral ‘II’. This is located 2 inches
(5cm) to the right of the HDMI port.
A DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable or
an Active DisplayPort to HDMI
converter is required in order to use this and is sold separately.
TIP:
The HDMI video signal is the same as a DVI one. If your monitor only
has a DVI connector, an HDMI to DVI cable or adaptor should enable
it to work without the need to purchase a new monitor.
8
USB ports
The ReadEasy Evolve features two USB
3.0 ports to connect devices such as
mice, trackballs, touch screens and
memory sticks for document import /
export and software updates.
USB port 1 is located 1.75 inches
(4.5cm) from the left edge of the unit. It
has a single raised dot directly above it.
USB port 2 is located 1.75 inches (4.5cm) from the right edge of the unit.
It has two raised dots directly above it.
Wireless Control Pad
The ReadEasy Evolve Feature Pack includes a tactile, 16 button, Wireless
Control Pad that enables many additional features.
The controls are all individually shaped (and coloured for low vision users)
for easy navigation. The capture, play / pause and forwards / backwards
controls are the same as the controls on the top of the ReadEasy Evolve
itself.
Key additional features for blind users
1. Capture multiple page documents quickly and easily so they can be
read without interruption.
2. Unique PowerRead function allows you to listen and navigate your
currently captured pages whilst adding additional pages.
3. Finer navigation control including a unique navigation dial to quickly
skip word-by-word to rewind / fast-forward.
4. Saving, loading, importing (PDF, image, text) and exporting of
documents (PDF, Word, image, MP3).
5. Bookmark your documents to quickly return to a particular section.
6. Dedicated ‘Help’ button with intuitive audio instructions.
7. Magnetic simplifier which reduces the available controls to 9.
9
Key additional features for low vision users
1. Display your documents in large print on any screen.
2. Adjust the size and enhance them as they are being read back to you.
3. Integrated joystick allows your documents to be panned without
having to physically move the page around under the camera.
4. Smoothly scroll the text of your captured documents making reading
using your eyes easier, faster and more comfortable.
5. Screen-by-screen reading for users who prefer to read text when it is
static.
6. Multi-touch touch screen support is also available when your
ReadEasy Evolve is connected to a compatible touch screen. This
allows you to intuitively pan around your document, start and stop
reading and zoom in and out, all with your finger touching the screen
and words directly.
7. Unique ReadHere feature allows you to be magnifying a document in
Live view, then click or press on a word to start reading directly from
that word. This eliminates the frustration of always having to start
reading from the beginning of a document.

Removing the Wireless Control Pad
To make the ReadEasy Evolve
easy to move from place-to-
place, the Wireless Control Pad
is stored in the back of the unit.
It is magnetised into place and
requires a small amount of force
to pivot out from the back.
There is a dip on the top of the
ReadEasy Evolve, in the middle
just behind the handle. The
Wireless Control Pad sticks out
slightly above this dip.
Place your thumb in this gap
with your fingers over the back
(you’ll feel the soft padding of
the Control Pad’s base). Then,
whilst supporting the Control
Pad from the back, push it backwards using your thumb and you will feel it
pivot outwards away from the Evolve.
Storing the Wireless Control Pad in the ReadEasy
Evolve
To put the Wireless Control Pad back into the ReadEasy Evolve’s case,
please follow the instructions of removing the Wireless Control Pad but in
reverse order.
Wireless Control Pad batteries
Two triple A (AAA) batteries to power the Wireless Control Pad are included
with the ReadEasy Evolve Feature Pack.
Inserting or replacing the batteries
Your distributor may have already inserted the batteries into the Wireless
Control Pad for you. If not, please follow the instructions below:
