IMPORTANT: You must safely eject, your SD card or USB stick before physically removing it from your
BrailleNote Touch. To safely eject your SD card or USB stick, type ENTER with E, select and activate the
type of storage device you wish to remove (SD card or USB stick), then wait for the confirmation
message. It is now safe to remove your external storage device.
Note: If you eject an external storage device, but decide to not physically remove it, it will no longer be
detected by your BrailleNote Touch. To make your BrailleNote Touch detect an unmounted external
storage device, simply remove it and then re-insert it into your BrailleNote Touch.
3.12.1 Extending Internal Storage with an SD Card
When inserting an SD card, you may notice that a notification appears in the Notification Shade. If you
activate this notification, you will be asked if you wish to use your SD card as portable storage or internal
storage. Portable storage is the standard way of using the SD card. Internal storage should only be used
when you are running out of internal space on your device, as it will render your SD card inoperable on
other devices until it is reformatted. In addition, an SD card used as Internal storage will always need to
remain in your device until you decide to stop using it this way. You should only remove internal storage
SD cards when your device is shut down.
Transferring Files
with a Computer
You can transfer files between your BrailleNote Touch and computer, just like most tablets or phones.
However, additional security measures with Android Oreo require you to activate USB file transfer
beforehand. Otherwise, plugging your BrailleNote Touch to your computer will only recharge it, and
your PC will not recognise your device.
To enable USB file transfer, start by plugging your USB-C connecter from your BrailleNote touch to the
USB port of your PC. Then, open Android settings by pressing Enter with Q. Scroll down to Connected
devices, and press Enter. Now, scroll down to USB, and press Enter. This will open a pop-up window with
many options. Select Transfer files, then press Enter to select it.
Your BrailleNote Touch can now transfer files with your PC.
Disabling and
Enabling Accessibility
Although it is not recommended, it is possible to disable accessibility on your device by pressing and
holding the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons simultaneously for a few seconds. This could be
useful when a sighted user intends on using your device.
To re-enable accessibility, simply press and hold the Volume Up and Down buttons once more for a few
seconds.
