All right.
Well, let's just start it off by talking about the startup wizard.
And I'm going to go ahead and demo that here in just a second, but the
startup wizard, it allows you to change a wide range of settings or basically
set up JAWS the way you want it.
When you want to.
So you can change settings for speech rate, punctuation, typing
echo, starting JAWS at the login screen, just a wide range of things.
Now the startup wizard runs when he first installed jaws, but anytime after
that, you can also press insert J to go to the jaws window, alt H for the help
menu and then Z for startup wizard.
So I'm going to go ahead and share my screen and we're going
to go ahead and delve into that.
All right.
So, um, I'm going to go ahead and press insert J here, context menu.
Now I have my JAWS to run, set, to run from the system tray.
So mine comes up in a context menu.
So instead of pressing alt H, I'm just going to press H
Z to get to the startup wizard Z leaving menus John's startup
wizard dialogue, help us improve freedom scientific products.
Would you like to participate in our effort to improve
freedom scientific products by submitting anonymous usage data?
Okay, so here on this first screen, there are several, several screens
here in the start-up wizard.
So here on the first screen is a check box.
Anonymous data usage.
Now this data is simply used to improve our products and also improve
the experience for you the user.
So we don't save this information.
We just use it to make those improvements in our product.
Now you need to have this box checked in order to use certain
features like picture smart and voice assistant, which we'll tell you about
those here in just a little bit.
So I am going to verify here, participates check box check.
I pressed insert tab by the way, because when you enter the
screen, you're automatically on that checkbox and minus checked.
So from here we can.
To move through the dialogue here, data collection, policy link.
And if you want to read that policy, you could, or you can go on, let's
go to the next, just the button.
I'm going to press space to the next screen.
68, we have speech settings.
So again, you just press the tab key to move through these
settings when you're off.
Uh, for example, when you're in a box like this, where you can
change your speech rate, you can use your up and down arrow keys.
26%.
I pressed up arrow on press down arrow.
Now I can tab to the next speech setting combo box and it's on some,
I could press up and down arrow to change the punctuation setting here.
Um, let's see.
Let's tab through A couple more of these here.
Now you heard us say radio button checked.
So typing echo is what happens when you talk.
Let's say you're in Microsoft word, for example.
And you type, are you going to hear the characters, words, both
characters and words or are none.
So it was a radio button.
You can just use your up and down arrow keys once again, to change that setting.
If you have a check box, you're going to use your space.
So here in the startup wizard, we won't go through all those settings,
but you can just keep going through these screens by tabbing to the
next button, pressing the space bar.
And then eventually you get to the last screen and there's a finished
button and you can just press, uh, enter a space on the finished
button to close the start-up wizard.
If you're in the startup wizard and you don't want to finish, you
can go to cancel which I'm going to do by pressing shift tab, because
I can just press space bar to cancel here.
All right.
So that is the start-up wizard.
Like I said, you just press insert J.
Then to go to the jaws window, all to H for help, and then Z
Zulu for the start-up wizard.
Now let's talk a little bit that the basics that you'll find the basic
settings you'll find under options menu.
So here you'll find some basic settings which include, uh, tutor messages.
You just heard jaws, uh, announced, you know, to pressure up and down
arrow keys or to type text, uh, or use your arrow keys to read text.
So those are your tutor messages.
You'll also find a prompt to confirm when exiting jaws you'll find some
automatic startup jaw or automatically starting jaws information, keyboard
layout, just a number of things.
So to get to the basic settings, you're going to press.
Insert J again, to go to the jaws window Alto for options, and then enter on
basic, which is the first item there.
So once again, I'm going to press insert J.
And I'm on options.
So I'm going to press enter
. I'm going to press enter on basics.
Cause once again, I'm using jaws is running from the system, trace, . Okay.
So if I want to turn this off, for example, I can use
my up and down arrow keys.
I'm gonna press up arrow.
Now, that should turn off the tutor messages and like the other dialogue
here, just like the start-up wizard.
I can use the tab key to move through this access.
. So again, you're up and down.
Arrow keys can be used to go through those options.
. Now that's a button.
Yeah.
And if you press space on it, you'll get all of your choices for starting jaws
on the login screen, starting jaws after login for all users or specific users.
So that's how you would get to those settings.
So we could, I'm going to leave that checked.
Cause I want jaws to prompt me if I exit jaws, but you could press space
to uncheck automatic notification updates, check box checked.
I want that check box check and mine is checked.
Show virtual viewer on screen check box checked and
say you want to change the layout of the keyboard layout.
For example, if you were using a desktop computer or a regular
keyboard, you've had it on desktop.
Now you have a laptop and you don't have a numb pad.
For example, I mean, you want to be able to use the caps lock as your insert key.
You can go here and change it to laptop.
And you can just use your arrow keys to navigate through that box.
There . I'm going to tab to okay.
And I'm going to press the enter key.
So that's just the basics there.

overlap in different places.
You'll find the same settings in different places.
