What do the specific features in the Cosmo Dot Setup (formerly Cosmo Switch Setup) app mean?

  1. Select Colour (12 colours)
  2. Select Character:
    – Space: Play/Pause; Move to the next item (AAC apps)
    – Enter: Select an item (browser, AAC apps)
    – Tab: Move to next item (browser, AAC apps)
    – Arrow up/down/left/right: Mirrors the keyboard arrow keys, usually used for playing games.
    – Left/Right click: Mirrors the mouse left and right button.
    – Volume up/down: Controls volume
    – Play/Pause: Controls media
    – Mute/Unmute: Controls media
    – F7/F8/~1/~3: Specific Windows functions
  3. Responsiveness: Adjust how sensitive the Dot is to touch (0-100%).
  4. Brightness: Control how bright the Dot’s light is (0-100%)
  5. Light Mode: Choose how the Dot lights up when pressed (five modes available).
  6. Output
- On press: The chosen character/action is triggered when the Dot is pressed down.
- On release: The chosen character/action is triggered when you lift your hand off the Dot.
  7. Activation Delay (press and hold activation): Sets how long the user must press the Dot before it activates an action. Helps prevent accidental or repeated activations caused by uncontrolled or involuntary movements (0 to 1.5 sec).
  8. Battery Saving:
    – OFF: The Dot will automatically power off after 4 hours of inactivity.
    – ON: After 20 minutes of inactivity, the Dot’s light will turn off, but the Dot will remain connected. The Dot will fully power off after 3 hours of inactivity.
  9. Sound Level: Adds a soft “click” sound to support users with low vision (Off, Low, Medium, High).
  10. Ignore Repeat: Treats continuous pressing as a single activation—useful for users who may rest on the Dot or press for longer than intended.
