[Cabs-talk] Two questions about Braillenote Apex

[Robert Stigile]

Hello All,
Yes Mike is correct, Humanware moved its company out of 
California about two years ago, and the only possibility now, is 
to talk your dealer, but usually they do not deal with repairs 
only sales.
You will need to send your unit to Humanware in Canada.
It will probably take about two weeks between sending and 
receiving and the actual repair.
Good luck,

?Hi darian while the braille note is sold in CA my understanding 
is for
repairs they send it to humanware in canada.  the dealers don't 
do repairs.
One can check with the dealer who sold the braillenote to be sure 
but I
think the dealers only deal with software issues.

 Hello miso,
  without looking into the first question with  a tremendous 
amount of
 depth I am not sure.  I have an M - Power, but   This is not  to 
say
 that   some functionality within the newer version of the 
scientific
 counculater isn't a  little different.  however, there should be 
a
 Manual on your device.  If there is, you should be able to 
access it
 by pressing the Space key with the letter O  from the main menu, 
and
 then the letter U from that point until you reach the user 
guide.
 As for your second question, I believe there are  locations in
 california  for fixing parts of the braille note.  I would first 
check
 with Voc Rehab,  as depending on if they baught  you the device 
(more
 oftin than not this is the case), they can  probably see about 
getting
 it fixed.  I would look at     taking on the cost, only if there  
were
 no other options to explore.
  I hope this helps,
  Darian

 Hi I am a student, who started using Apex recently.
 I have two questions about the device.

 First of all, I would like to know, when using the scientific
 calculator,  if there is any way I can make my calculated result 
into
 scientific notation.
 Is there any command for it?

 Secondly, I would like to know if there is any place where I can 
get my
 device fixed.
 My backspace key is not smoothe enough that I have to press it 
hard
 currently.
 Is there any way I can fix the problem myself?
 if not any place in California or close to California twhere I 
can go
 or send and get it fixed quickly?

 I would appreciate your answer for either one.

 Miso Kwak
