Let’s Get Started
This Getting Started Guide is designed for two people: the person who will use the
device to communicate and a helper who can touch the screen and move the device.
The sections with the hand icon must be completed by the helper. The sections with the
eye icon should be completed by the person who will access the device using eye gaze.
When you have completed the steps in this guide, the individual will be able to use eye
gaze to communicate in the TD Talk app.
Power On
Connect the charger cable to the charging
port on the side of the TD Pilot base, then
plug the power cord into an outlet.
Press the power button on the back of the
TD Pilot to power it on.
Press the power button on the iPad to
power it on.
Follow the on-screen prompts to set up
the iPad.
Set Up TD Snap
Select the TD Snap app.
Follow the prompts to set up your TD Snap user. Remember to choose the Eye Gaze
access method.

Mount and Position
Prepare the user to start using eye tracking by positioning them comfortably. If they use
glasses, make sure that they are wearing them and that the lenses are clean.
Place the TD Pilot on your mounting system or a stable surface in front of the user at, or
slightly below, their eye level. If their head is tilted left or right, tilt the TD Pilot to match. It
is important that the angle of the screen surface match the angle of the user’s face. Most
users, when seated at a table or desk, will need to have the TD Pilot positioned higher
than the table surface.
You may need to refine the position of the device during the Calibrate steps on the next
page. Always adjust the position of the device to suit the user, not the other way around.
Note: A mounting system is the best
option for precise device positioning
that is easy to adjust throughout the
day. Several mounting options are
available, including floor mounts, desk
mounts, and wheelchair mounts. Visit
TobiiDynavox.com or contact your
local Tobii Dynavox partner.

Calibrate
Tap the CoPilot app.
Follow the on-screen instructions in CoPilot to calibrate the eye tracker to the
user’s eyes.
When the user has finished calibrating, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to
return to the Home screen.
Ready!
Your TD Pilot is now ready to use. Launch TD Snap to start communicating.
Continue to the TD Snap Training Cards
Continue your set up journey with the TD Snap Core First Training Cards that came in
the box with your TD Pilot.
The training cards walk you through the features of TD Snap, basic editing, backing up
your data, and some activities to help you integrate TD Snap into your daily life.
