Hi all,
Todd, when the BN is doing something that will take it some time, it
makes a sound. The sound it makes is "swish". I am sorry, Todd, that
is the only way I can describe it. I don't think often about
describing sounds; you make me think this morning. At the same time,
the braille display shows numbers to indicate that something is taking
place inside the unit and that one should wait. Each time the number
goes up, there is a "swish" sound. It's like when an hour-glass
appears on a computer screen to tell you to wait. We don't see the
hour-glass, but we get the audible message "hour glass", or the
braille display shows "hour glass". Then you know to wait. The
numbers and the swishing in the BN with the GPS has the same purpose.
It tells you to wait while the BN is computing a route or whatever.
Ann P.
