eFunding Portal walk-through

Hey Tek-Ninja’s! If you ever try to secure funding for a client‘s AAC equipment, the Efunding portal at Tobii-Dynavox.com is really super easy to use but occasionally folks run into a couple of hiccups.

Our funding department managers have stated that when clinicians use the portal, we have significantly less revisions required, and faster turn-around. That means less work for you, and faster equipment distribution to your clients!

This video below should help you navigate the system and eliminate most of the issues people run into.

i13 and i16: Eye gaze pause and sleep menu disengage

Hey Tek-ninjas, with the old i-12 and i-15, training an end-user to use the off-screen controls for Pause and Sleep was sometimes super hard... until the user "got it".

With the new i-13 and i-16, it's so much easier to use. To the point, that sometimes, for my emergent users, it pops up inadvertently all the time.

This short video will show you how to disengage that function until you and your user decide to put it back on.

Happy Therapy!

Bi-lingual pageset: ABC/QWERTY layout

Hey Tek-ninjas! Today I got a phone call from a clinician out towards the coast and I have to admit she stumped me.

She asked: “how do I change a keyboard from ABC to QWERTY in a bilingual page set”.

Well I was pretty sure that I had that because I’ve made that video a while ago.

Turns out that process does not work in a bilingual page set. Take a look at the video below if you need to do this for a client.
Happy therapy!
