Emboss and manage your Index V5 Embosser from a Smart Phone or Tablet PC using Wi-Fi:
Supports direct embossing from any Smart phone or Tablet PC using the Index app. The embosser will use Index-direct-Braille (idB), an embedded direct printing application, to print files automatically. idB translates braille into Grade 1 or Grade 2 braille, formats the page layout, duplexing and page number. Print emails, notes, online content, etc. by saving the text in any standard file format such as doc, pdf, txt or brf. Then emboss braille from your mobile device such as iPhone, Android or Windows phone. |
|
Using the same web interface (Index app) you can also:
· Monitor embosser status and progress.
· Repair and install the firmware on the SD card.
· Run service functions for testing.
· Set up desired print layout, communication settings and endless other embosser MENU options.
|
Emboss files directly from a USB Pen drive: Connect a USB pen drive directly to the USB port of the Index V5 embosser and directly start embossing without using a computer.
Back up/ Restore directly with USB Pen Drive: You can back up/ restore the braille settings, page layouts, etc. directly from the embosser to a USB pen drive thus eliminating the need to do it again in case it gets deleted accidently or you want to copy the settings to another Index V5 Embosser. |
FREE In-built Braille Translator - Index Direct Braille (idB):
idB is a direct braille printing application built into the V5 braille embosser. It is available free of charge and is compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux computers.
With Index Direct Braille users can directly emboss text files of type .doc .pdf .txt and .docx into either Grade 1 (literary) or Grade 2 (contracted) braille without the need for a separate Braille Translation Software.
|
|
idB automatically translates the document into braille as per the language selected, formats the page layout as well as includes the Braille Page number. This braille translation function is available for many languages including Indian languages through the Liblouis open source project.
