How is the SafeTypeTM keyboard used?
Simply use a hand-shake position with palms facing each other,
and with your index fingers on the familiar ‘home’
keys you begin to type, without thinking about each letter
-- just like you do now with other keyboards. It is familiar
in layout so there is no re-training required for a touch
typist. However, the adjustable mirrors are there so you can
see keys on the less-familiar top rows if necessary, and the
lettering on the keys is reversed so you can read it properly
in the mirrors.
How Mirrors Work
Raise and lower the mirrors by pushing only on the hinge
on the back of the keyboard. Get as close to the slot as possible.
Push up from the bottom to raise the mirrors. To lower them,
push down from the top. The animation below shows the keyboard
from the back.
Back Side of SafeTypeTM
The mirrors slide up from their stowed position, and it is
important that you push up in the correct place to avoid damage.
The mirrors are hinged on the back side of the keyboard,
so that once they slide up they can be moved around to the
outside of the keyboard and positioned to reflect the keys
to the user.
Many users do not use the mirrors at all. They are included
primarily to help with the ‘Function’ and ‘Numeric’
rows of keys because many typists are less familiar with those
keys than the letter keys that they use constantly. As with
any keyboard, most users will be more efficient as a touch
typist if they do not use visual references. Do not use the
mirrors until you understand how they work and where to lift
them. Pulling on the mirrors in the wrong place could cause
them to break.
