Chat Editor
Chat Editor is a supplemental program that runs on a Windows desktop
or laptop computer. It allows you to customize vocabulary files.
Although customizing is also possible on the device itself, the Editor
allows the family and/or professionals to customize the vocabulary
when the device is not present.
Note: Having the custom vocabulary on a computer is recommended as
a backup to the device.
Installing Chat Editor
Important! With software release 2.0, we replaced NOVA chat Editor with
Chat Editor. If you have used NOVA chat Editor in the past, it will no longer
work with 2.0 files or newer.
This process installs Chat Editor on your computer and creates desktop
shortcuts to the “Chat Editor” application and the “Chat Editor Import”
folder.
1. Insert the Chat Editor CD in your computer’s disc drive.
2. You should see a Chat Editor Installer screen (this may take a few
moments). If you do not see the Installer screen, navigate to your
CD through Windows Explorer and choose setup.exe.
3. The CD Installer screen provides a choice of three applications to
load.
4. Choose Install/Update Chat Editor.
5. If you want the device to be able to use synthetic speech and you
have a compatible sound card (you probably do), choose Microsoft
Voices for SAPI 5.1.
Note: Microsoft Voices provides a voice for Chat
Editor to use. If you
already have a desktop application on your computer from a
ChatPC, you will not need to install Microsoft Voices again.
6. To be able to transfer files to the device, choose Install Device Driver.
7. Choose Install.
8. Follow the on-screen instructions.
9. When the installation process is complete, remove the CD from the
drive. The CD is not needed to run the Editor.
