THE
NEO 2
To start the NEO 2, press the on/off key in the upper-left corner of the
keyboard. The NEO 2 will start AlphaWord Plus, and you can begin typing
immediately in the open file if you wish.
Notice that you have eight files available to type text in; to switch between
files, press one of the file keys (file 1, file 2, etc.). You can also save and name
files on your NEO 2. For more information, see the NEO and NEO 2 User
Manual.
NEO 2 shuts down automatically to save battery power if you don’t use it for a
certain amount of time. The default time is 4 minutes, but you can change it
by pressing option-z-T or using the Idle Time System setting in AlphaSmart
Manager.

AlphaSmart Manager helps your computer work with NEO 2. It lets you do
the following:
• Get files from your NEO 2 so you can view them, save them, and/or print
them.
• Send files from your computer to your NEO 2. Files may include lessons,
instructions, or just text files that you want to work in on the NEO 2.
• View reports about student work in KeyWords on the NEO 2 and
synchronize the data with Renaissance Place. (For more about KeyWords,
see page 19.)
• Install or remove SmartApplet programs from your NEO 2.
• Change settings for your NEO 2 or one of the SmartApplets on the NEO 2.
• View the items you’re about to send to the NEOs and select the ones to send
them to.
