Hi Brett,

 

Thanks so much for this.  I don’t like the idea of not getting feedback, so I 
think I’ll stick with the Qardio, at least for now.

Cheers,

I have the withings blood pressure monitor and it does work.

I can't remember if the setup was accessible but the actual measurement process 
provides no feedback. You have to press once to turn on the monitor, wait a few 
seconds, press to start the measurement, when it is done, press the monitor to 
show the measurement and finally one last time to send it to the iPhone app.

Also, the design is awkward, it goes only on your left arm and is one contained 
unit.

It does look kind of cool because it is a single rechargeable unit via usb but 
I always have trouble getting it on my arm.

Just my thoughts.

Having said all that, I do use it and it works.

Have you looked at the monitors by Withings?

The app is accessible for sure.  The only part I’m not sure of is the initial 
setup of the device.  I expect that it would be as their scales tend to be easy 
to use and can be set up without sighted assistance.

Yeah, I don’t get it.  I’ve contacted the dev, and they don’t know why it’s

Crazy. The only other option I can see to try and correct this would be to 
remove the app and re-install it from the app store. If your BP is in your 
Health app, you probably will not lose the data, but if it is only in the 
Cardio app, it might be an issue. I suppose you could also try working with 
either Apple or the product developer to resolve the issues.

Hi Jonathan,

 

Well, I was really hoping that would solve my issue, but it didn’t.  When I 
checked in privacy settings, Qardio was already on.  I turned it off and back

Hello Donna,

In the last couple versions of IOS, apps are not allowed to communicate 
directly with the bluetooth stack without being given permission. This is 
because bluetooth was being used to track peoples locations. Any bluetooth 
device that needs an app to interpret it, must have that apps be granted 
bluetooth access in the privacy table. To do this,open up the Settings app 
under privacy select bluetooth and then look to make sure your app is enabled 
here.

Generally, there are four types of apps I find in the list that have requested 
bluetooth access:

1. Location apps that are using bluetooth to better pinpoint your location, 
like Sound Scape and Blind Square

2. Apps  that use chrome cast to send video to TVs.

3. Apps to specialially control a specific device (iRobot)

4. Apps that want to track you wit bluetooth beacons I have one restaurant and

 As is my own device.
But like anything including your list of possible reasons
We can include the limits behind or with our nations fibre connections 
including each connection having a limit of I believe 25 users per connection 

As our our fibre connections  run on the ADSL 2 plus protocol which is still

Hello,

I get a bit confused also, (no pun intended). In terms of the internet, when 
you are transmitting data, such as when talking about speed, it is always in 
bits rather than bites. As far as the question of why wi-fi is slower than 
wired, it is nearly always that way. A wired signal always transmits along the 
wire, and does not weaken until it reaches a certain distance, whereas a wi-fi 
signal may have to go through walls, be accessed from an angle, experience 
interference, etc. Also, there are two different kinds of wi-fi signal, 2.4 
GHZ, and 5.0 GHZ. The 2.4 will transmit for a longer distance, but will be 
slower, and the 5.0 will weaken at a shorter distance from the box. I don’t 
know how much difference it makes if you are using fiber though. I would call 
the internet service provider and let them know what is happening. It could be 
the box needs to be moved, a channel needs to be changed, or something needs to 
be updated. It could also be that the device you are using to access the 
internet with is simply not built to process one gigabit of speed. Okay okay, 
the nerd is shutting up now. Hope at least some of this was helpful.

Holly

I didn’t see any option to set the target server,

But that would explain why the ping is so high.

Hi,

You can also download the SpeedTest app from the AppStore.  It's free and 
supposedly is more reliable for tests over 100 Mbps.

Hi Gents,

I just ran that speed test on a wired machine and got a
Ping of 22milli seconds,
Download:192.57 Megabits
Upload: 171.32 megabits

So as showing wired is faster than a wifi test

But alsoalso the wifi router and type of connection makes a big difference also.

RE: Speed Test Results - Was: Double-Tapping to Send Mail?

2019-09-02 Thread Simon A Fogarty
Hi Dave,

I used chrome and in the line prior to the speed record is a line that tells 
you what the upload / download  on that same line is an mb/ ps
So it is there.

My ping speed is what I’d expect a snail to have when running backwards on ice.
26 milli seconds.

I’m still not sure what the units are for this speed test. Since they only give

RE: Speed test website

2019-09-02 Thread Simon A Fogarty
Well that’s a shock to the system,

  I go  back on what I said to you Dave and Petrus,

Tim I’m guessing it’s a problem with nz’s fibre seeing my download is 72.000
And upload is 86.32
And after checking a couple of times to be sure,
That is Mega bits.

I pay for speeds that should be 10 times faster,
Petrus I think we should complain

Dave, I’d check with yor provider

Hi Tim,

Hell that’s a big difference.

Now if we divide that by 8 we get a number closer to that of what dave is 
getting.

I’m still dreaming of that speed in megabytes though,

That would be so fast when downloading.

The difference simply due to location and a platform that my city got to

Hi,

It kind of depends on a number of factors.  If doing this on an iOS device, it 
may display slower results.  On a Mac, it depends on whether your ISP is a 
cable provider or ADSL or something more like fibre.  I suggest you run it two 
or three times to see if the results differ.

Hi Dave,

That sounds very much like megabytes to me.

The download speed is the one that really matters unless your uploading a lot 
of data to other sites.

But that would be similar to what I’m getting here in NZ,
But yes much slower than Tim is getting in Canada

Hi Dave,

3 Mb as you reported is quite slow,

Possibly you did get it mistaken

Or Tim confused bytes for bits vise versa.

RE: Speed Test Results - Was: Double-Tapping to Send Mail?

2019-09-02 Thread Simon A Fogarty
Hi Tim,

For Petrus and I
We’re both on fibre connections mine is meant to be download of up to 1 Gb but 
that’s top speed,I’m lucky if I get half that on a good day.

Petrus I’m not sure of his speeds but would be getting upwards of similar to 
mine,

The difference simply due to location and a platform that my city got to 
experience first in the country,



We both use the same ISP bt use different routers / modems

I can pretty much say that Petrus would have better speeds on his connection 
than I would get on mine.

Hi,

It kind of depends on a number of factors.  If doing this on an iOS device, it 
may display slower results.  On a Mac, it depends on whether your ISP is a 
cable provider or ADSL or something more like fibre.  I suggest you run it two 
or three times to see if the results differ.

Hi all,
Maybe I should explain myself. I think I got lost after I opened the link as I 
was still in bed on a Sunday morning and I was using the iPhone. I will try it 
again on the Mac today.

Speed Test Results - Was: Double-Tapping to Send Mail?

2019-09-02 Thread 'Bill Gallik' via MacVisionaries
 OK, I ran the speed test and the results appear to be significantly slower 
than what I am supposedly paying for from my ISP.

Is this a normal characteristic or am I being overcharged for service?

Re: Test Drive an Orbits Reader Display Anyone? I Don't think so

2019-03-15 Thread 'E.T.' via MacVisionaries
   I am not sure but can probably find out. Being that is is twice as 
expensive as other displays (the Active Braille may be the one I saw and 
would like to get that one), I was afraid to get too excited as the 
program I was in might balk and ultimately they did.


   The Focus 5th will connect if I turn the Mac on or unlock my phone, 
its that good. And its just as easy to disconnect it too or switch to 
another device.

RE: Test Drive an Orbits Reader Display Anyone? I Don't think so

2019-03-15 Thread M. Taylor
Hello E.T., 

To be honest, I did not determine the generation name of the display model of 
the Focus.  I simply told them that I wanted to take a look at the most recent 
version of the Focus 40.

I did not see any HandyTech displays but, then again, I did not look for any 
HandyTech products.  

While I went to virtually all of the blindness related booths, Humanware, Hims, 
and Freedom Scientific were the vendors to which I paid the most attention.

Mark.
Was this a Focus 5th or a new version? I like the 5th but its not being 
developed enough, it has some minor annoyances.

Were there any displays from HandyTech?

Hello Alia,

Wow!  I was glad to read your "rant", (smile).  

Well, you've pretty much settled the question for me.  

Even though I have several Windows computers, an Orbit Reader 20 is definitely 
not in my future.  To me, customer service/customer support is so very 
important.

I am baffled at this device. they never have enough when you order you have to 
wait months. those of us with macs are told to suck it up, and buy a cheap 
windows computer to update our devices! I seriously cannot believe that was 
their advice, or go to the library. so I am supposed to get a sighted friend to 
drive me, and when I called the library said they wouldn’t allow me to download 
software on their machines to update it anyway, so I either have to find a 
friend to update, buy a computer with windows, or go without. the company even 
said we can’t do updates that’s up to you, but if you have a mac too bad. it’s 
supposed to be a device for all, so much for that. Okay, rant over!

Blind Patients to Test Bionic Eye Brain Implants, MIT Technology Review

2018-07-24 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,

I am posting the following article not because it is Apple-related but
because I believe it to be of interest to all of us in this particular
community.  

If interested, I strongly recommend that you read the piece in its entirety
as it pertains to all of us, not just those with a particular type of
blindness.  

Finally, as this thread is off-topic, I request that no replies be posted,
on-list.

Mark

Blind Patients to Test Bionic Eye Brain Implants, MIT Technology Review.

The maker of the world's first commercial artificial retina, which provides
partial sight to people with a certain form of blindness, is launching a
clinical trial for a brain implant designed to restore vision to more
patients.

The company, Second Sight, is testing whether an array of electrodes placed
on the surface of the brain can return limited vision to people who have
gone partially or completely blind. For decades, scientists have been trying
to develop brain implants to give sight back to the blind but have had
limited success. If the Second Sight device works, it could help millions of
blind patients worldwide, including those who have lost one or both eyes.




The device, called the Orion, is a modified version of the company's current
Argus II bionic eye, which involves a pair of glasses outfitted with a
camera and an external processor. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has
granted the company a conditional approval for a small study involving five
patients at two sites, Baylor College of Medicine and the University of
California, Los Angeles. Second Sight still needs to conduct further testing
of the device and answer certain questions before starting the trial but
hopes to begin enrolling patients in October and do its first implant by the
end of the year.

Second Sight first won approval in Europe in 2011 for the Argus II, followed
by an FDA approval in 2013 (see "Bionic Eye Implant Approved for U.S.
Patients"). In Europe, two more retinal prosthetics have since been
approved-one is marketed by French company Pixium Vision and another by
German firm Retina Implant.

Also known as a bionic eye, all three devices are intended to bring back
some vision in patients with a genetic eye disorder called retinitis
pigmentosa. The disease causes gradual vision loss when light-sensing cells
called photoreceptors break down in the retina-the tissue membrane that
coats the back of the eye. An estimated 1.5 million people worldwide,
including about 100,000 people in the U.S., have retinitis pigmentosa. That
is a small percentage of the 39 million people worldwide who are blind,
according to the World Health Organization.


 

A rendering of Second Sight's Orion device, a brain implant that uses most
of the technology from the company's existing device, the Argus II. 

But Robert Greenberg, Second Sight's board chair, says the company has only
sold about 250 of the Argus II devices, a number lower than he expected. The
device costs about $150,000 and restores minimal vision. Only 15 centers in
the U.S. offer the technology, and with competition abroad, Second Sight is
hoping its new brain implant could be used by far more pople.  

Second Sight's Argus II uses a camera mounted on a pair of glasses to
capture images. The images are sent to a small, patient-worn processor,
which uses special software to convert the images into a set of instructions
that are sent to the implanted chip near the retina. Those instructions are
then transmitted as a series of electrical pulses to an array of electrodes,
also implanted around the eye.  

People with retinitis pigmentosa are able to benefit from the device because
the disease destroys only specialized photoreceptors while leaving the
retina's remaining cells intact. These retinal cells are able to transmit
the visual information along the optic nerve to the brain, producing
patterns of light in a patient's field of view.

The new device, the Orion, borrows about 90 percent of its technology from
the Argus II but bypasses the eye. Instead, an array of electrodes is placed
on the surface of the visual cortex, the part of the brain that processes
visual information. Delivering electrical pulses here should tell the brain
to perceive patterns of light.

"In some types of blindness, the optic nerve is damaged so you have to go
downstream. With the Orion, we're essentially replacing the eye and the
optic nerve completely," Greenberg says. With this approach, "anyone who had
vision but has lost it from almost any cause could potentially be helped by
the Orion technology."

Re: Performing hardware test on my mac mini

2018-04-18 Thread dan d.


 There is a utility that can be used in terminal to show fan speed and cpu temp 
and battery status.  These can be shown for each or all
desired information.

Once you download and unzip it put it in the appplications folder.

Do istats fan for number of fans and speed only.

Do istats alone to get all information.

Do istats -h to get the usage information for all functions.

Here is the link to download it:

Hi,

The key that they are referring to is the actual letter "d" key.  You hold down

is only partially accessible and you do not wish to mess with too many of the 
default fan speeds unless you know what you're actually manipulating and the 
consequences of modifying it.

Hi all:

i searched online, and my mac is late 2012, i’m running High sierra.
I shut down and i hold teh D key while opening as mentioned exactly.
nothing happened and i didn’t go to the test screen at all.
i assume tha  the D key that they mentioned is the delete key in the 6 back. 
but the VOice over keyboard helper told me that the. backslash is the delete 
key.
don’t know how, but anyway i tried the both.

any ideas on how to achieve this please?

Re: Performing hardware test on my mac mini

2018-04-17 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

The key that they are referring to is the actual letter "d" key.  You hold down 
the "d" key on startup and the Mac is put into Diagnostic mode.  All well and 
good, but Diagnostic mode is not accessible with VO, so, you're out of luck 
with this option.  If you are attempting to see if a fan is working, I suggest 
Google searching something like SMC Fan Kit which allows for monitoring and 
modifying internal fan speeds.  You do need to be careful with this app as it 
is only partially accessible and you do not wish to mess with too many of the 
default fan speeds unless you know what you're actually manipulating and the 
consequences of modifying it.

Re: test please ignore.

2018-01-30 Thread Jonathan Cohn
OK, since everybody is jumping on this one, I opened up MacVisionaries on the 
GoogleGroups web site and click on contact owner.

Perhaps either the footer will be corrected or the + routing used by Google 
will be trained to go to the proper place. I am now going to review my own 
GoogleGroups list and see what shows up there.

BTW if anybody wants to discuss AppleScript or automations of Macintosh things 
on a quieter list my Blind Automation list is still available.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

What I want to know is 

Did we pass the test or fail it?

I'm not sure what I put as an answer for question 3.
