The SL87 Lightwriter is a compact integrated scanning communication
aid, with very high legibility. The keyboard permits users with
progressive conditions to migrate from direct selection to scanning at
their own pace, with no delays in reassessment, ordering, or supply.
When the SL87 is used in scanning mode, the keyboard allows faster
creation of user memories and change of setups by the therapist or
carer.
Designed as a low cost, extremely compact, dedicated scanning communication aid.
The
SL85 has backlit Liquid Crystal Displays with large bold fonts for good
legibility in a range of lighting conditions. A plug-in keyboard is
supplied to provide fast entry of memories and change of set ups by the
therapist or carer. 1 or 2 switch scanning.
Please click on the black bar at the top of the demonstration to turn the sound on/off.
Scanning is a selection technique for people who cannot use a keyboard.
The alphabet is displayed on a screen on which a selector box moves automatically from letter to letter. When the selector box reaches the desired letter, the user presses a switch to select that letter.
