1. WELCOME
1 WELCOME
Congratulations on your purchase of the PageFlip Firefly Bluetooth/USB
pedal! This product was designed to meet the needs of musicians, people with disabilities, and avid readers who struggle with the challenge and
inconvenience of page turning. PageFlip Firefly works exclusively with digital documents, web pages, and image collections on any tablet or computer. By simply tapping the dual pedal of the PageFlip Firefly, the digital
content can now be flipped or scrolled in either the forward or reverse
directions for convenient hands-free page turning.
The PageFlip Firefly emulates a standard keyboard and works with
any software that uses keyboard strokes to navigate through digital files.
For added versatility, the user may select among five preset modes for
the dual pedals: PageUp/PageDown, Left/Right arrow, Up/Down arrow,
Left/Right mouse click, and Space / Enter. Changing modes is as simple
as pressing a button. For added versatility, the pedal functions may be reprogrammed with free software available on ✇✇✇✳♣❛❣❡❢❧✐♣✳❝♦♠. Simply
connect the pedal to a Windows/Mac computer using the supplied USB
cable and run the software to edit the pedal modes.
The PageFlip Firefly is ideal for musicians who can now keep their
hands, and their focus, on their instruments rather than struggle with turning sheet music. It is also ideal for people with disabilities who can more
easily tap a pedal than attempt to manipulate pages of a standard book or
magazine. The convenient mode buttons maximize versatility for use with
a wide variety of software to scroll, browse, and navigate through eBooks,
PDF files, Word, Powerpoint, web pages, and images.
PageFlip Firefly may be operated in wireless or wired mode. Wireless
connectivity is achieved via Bluetooth. All Apple products and most modern tablets/computers are equipped with Bluetooth, so this mode is nearly

universal. An optional USB Bluetooth dongle is available from PageFlip to
interface to computers that are not equipped with Bluetooth 2.1 (or later).
If the user prefers wired connectivity, the supplied USB cable can be connected between the pedal and tablet/computer. Note that iPads require an
optional Camera Connection Kit to interface with the supplied USB cable.
The PageFlip Firefly features LED lighting to emit a discrete glow on
each of the two pedals, hence the name “Firefly.” This lighting permits
the pedal to be easily found in orchestra pits, dark stages, and cluttered
environments. Use the light switch to turn off the LED lighting when not
needed to preserve battery life.
PageFlip Firefly is compact, silent, reliable, durable, and easy to use.
Since it works with digital content, it guarantees 100% reliability in turning
one page at a time without moving parts or noise. Just pair the pedal with
a Bluetooth-enabled computer or connect it to the tablet/computer via the
USB cable, open up any digital file, and tap the pedal to begin enjoying
hands-free reading. Be prepared to enjoy the benefits of the PageFlip
Firefly Bluetooth/USB pedal for automatic page turning!

2 FEATURES
• Ease of Use
Simply open a digital file and press either pedal of the PageFlip
Firefly to turn a page forwards or backwards.
• Convenience
Permits hands-free reading of vast libraries of scanned, purchased,
or freely downloaded digital content. There is no need to stop playing your musical instrument or wait for a care-giver to turn the page.
• Reliability
Turns one page at a time with 100% accuracy. Navigation of digital
content eliminates the risk of turning multiple pages at once, which
is a problem typically associated with physical books.
• Versatility
Press a mode button to select pedal functions for enhanced software compatibility: PageUp/PageDown, Left/Right arrow, Up/Down
arrow, Left/Right mouse click, and Space / Enter. The pedals may
be reprogrammed for added versatility.
• Robust Operation
A Repeat switch enables continuous scrolling while the pedal is
pressed down. Disable this feature for musical performances to
prevent inadvertent page turns in case of a slow pedal release or
to rest your foot on the pedal between page turns.
• Wireless or Wired Connectivity
The PageFlip Firefly communicates wirelessly with the computer up
to a range of 10 meters using standard Bluetooth 3.0 technology.
For those users preferring a wired connection, the pedal can be
connected directly to a tablet/computer via the supplied USB cable.
• Compatibility
Works with any Windows, Mac, or Linux computer. Even works with

to bring the full benefits of this wireless pedal to any computer that
is not Bluetooth compliant.
• Unique Pairing
Multiple pedals can be operated in the same room without interference. The Bluetooth pairing process uniquely establishes wireless
connectivity between the PageFlip Firefly and one computer. Bluetooth pairing is automatically achieved without a passkey once the
pedal is selected among a list of discovered Bluetooth devices on
the tablet/computer.
• External Switches
The PageFlip Firefly is compatible with a wide array of external
switches. Commonly used sip-and-puff and Jelly Bean pushbutton switches may be plugged into the auxiliary switch outlet(s) via
two 1/8" mono plugs. The functions of the external switches may
be programmed to operate independently of the built-in pedals to
offer two additional pedal functions.
• Auto Power-Off Function
PageFlip Firefly automatically turns itself off 30 minutes after the
last operation is performed. The pedal has a battery life of 200
hours of continuous page turning, or about 200,000 page turns.
• Portability
Small sturdy pedal operates on AC power or two AA batteries.

Select the mode that achieves your intended goals. Results may
vary based on the software. For instance, some software applications
use PageUp/PageDown to advance between pages/screens, and use the
arrow keys to move the cursor between characters or rows. Other programs accept the PageUp/PageDown or arrow keys interchangeably. Image viewers typically respond to Left/Right arrow but not Up/Down arrow.
Experiment with the different modes and see which works best for your
application. These options are made available to enhance pedal versatility by making it responsive to the widest array of software.

Autorepeat Function
4.7 Autorepeat Function
The PageFlip Firefly features an autorepeat function that may be set by
the REPEAT switch (Fig. 4). If autorepeat is on, a continuous stream of
commands is sent to the computer as long as the pedal is pressed down.
This behavior, which is identical to that of a keyboard, is useful for fast
browsing or scrolling. The autorepeat function applies only to the following
pedal modes: PageUp/PageDown, Left/Right arrow, and Up/Down arrow.
Enable Autorepeat
1. Slide the REPEAT switch to the On position.
2. Tap pedal quickly to turn one page.
3. Tap and hold the pedal to turn successive pages quickly.
Disable Autorepeat
1. Slide the REPEAT switch to the Off position.
2. Tap pedal slowly or quickly to turn one page.
For musical practice or performance, it is recommended to disable the
autorepeat function. This prevents turning multiple pages inadvertently if
the pedal is held down too long. This also permits the user to rest their
foot on the pedal until the next page is turned with another foot tap.

PageFlip Firefly’s integrated pedal, then by all means plug it in!
Why are the LEDs not lit when I turn on the PageFlip Firefly?
Make sure to install two fresh AA batteries in the pedal. The PageFlip
Firefly may be plugged into the wall using the supplied USB cable and
any USB AC adapter, such as those already included with iPads/iPhones.
You can also power the pedal by using the supplied cable to plug into a
computer’s USB port.
What is the current pedal mode?
An LED is lit next to the current mode setting of the pedal. Simply press
a different mode button to change the setting. The LED will turn off once
the PageFlip Firefly enters sleep mode after 10 minutes of inactivity.
Why is the pedal not turning pages?
Confirm that the device “Premium Pedal” is paired to your computer and
that the correct pedal mode is selected. Some software may require arrow
keys while others may require PageUp/PageDown or other keystrokes. Try
several modes until you find one that works. Note that if you use unrealBook on the iPad, you must go to the app’s settings (tap the gear icon) and
set Network->BT Keyboard Connected to ON. NextSong switches can be
left OFF. The app will then respond to the Up/Down Arrow keys.
Why is the pedal not turning pages on the unrealbook app?
Confirm that the device "Premium Pedal" is paired to your computer and
that the Up/Down arrow mode is set on the pedal. This is indicated by a
blinking light next to the middle (third) mode button. Then, make sure you
go to the app’s settings (tap the gear icon) and set Network->BT Keyboard
Connected to ON. The app will then respond to the Up/Down Arrow keys.
What are the different operating conditions signified by the LED?

A solid LED means that the pedal is plugged into a power source. If the
RESET button is pressed, the pedal enters Bluetooth discovery mode and
all the LEDs flash in sequence. The LED flashes once per second after
the pedal is turned on and is attempting to establish a Bluetooth connection with a paired device. The LED flashes once every four seconds to
signal that the pedal is already paired. Repeated bursts of three quick
flashes signal a low-battery condition.
Why did PageFlip Firefly automatically shut down?
Automatic shutdown occurs after 30 minutes of inactivity. Tapping a pedal
will make the PageFlip Firefly attempt to re-establish the Bluetooth connection. This may take a few seconds. If the computer continues to be
unresponsive to the pedal, press the RESET button.
What do I do if Bluetooth pairing is unsuccessful?
Delete the device displayed in the host and press the RESET button on
the pedal. Initial discovery mode may take up to 30 seconds. Follow your
computer’s instructions on how to pair Bluetooth devices.
Must the the pedal be paired each time I use it with the same device?
No, you must only pair the pedal once to a device (e.g., iPad/Mac/Windows
computer). There is no need to pair it again once you turn on the pedal
or device again. If you find that the pedal loses its pairing, then contact
customer support. The only time you need to pair the pedal again with
a device is if you paired the pedal to another device in the interim. The
pedal only remembers one pairing at a time.
Does PageFlip Firefly work with computers that have no Bluetooth?
Yes, only after you plug in the included USB Bluetooth dongle into the
computer’s USB port. Follow your computer’s instructions for adding Bluetooth devices.

9. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does PageFlip Firefly turn pages at timed intervals?
No. PageFlip Firefly turns a page only when the user triggers it by tapping
a pedal or activating an external switch.
When is the Autorepeat mode appropriate?
Turn on autorepeat if you are interested in fast browsing or scrolling. Turn
off autorepeat to avoid multiple pages from turning at once if you inadvertently press the pedal too long. It is therefore best to turn off autorepeat
during a performance.
How can I use the virtual keyboard and the pedal at the same time
on the iPad?
Press the current mode (CM) button, which lies next to the blinking light,
to hide/eject the virtual keyboard (on V5 pedals only). Only the forScore
app allows the virtual keyboard to appear on the iPad screen when the
pedal is on, without requiring to press the CM button. To allow this mode
in forScore, go to the forScore settings by tapping on the "..." upper right
icon. Then, select "Settings" and scroll down to "Force virtual keyboard"
and set it to "On". You will now be able to access the virtual keyboard to
enter text within that app without having to turn off the pedal.
