Using Chat Editor with TouchChat
Chat Editor is a supplemental program that runs on a Windows® desktop or laptop computer. It allows
you to customize vocabulary files. Although customizing is also possible on the device itself, the Editor
allows the family and/or professionals to customize the vocabulary when the device is not present.
Note: Having the custom vocabulary on a computer is always recommended as a backup to the device.
Downloading and Installing Chat Editor
Important! With software release 2.0, we replaced TouchChat Windows Editor with Chat Editor. If you
have used TouchChat Windows Editor in the past, it will no longer work with 2.0 files or newer.
The installation process installs Chat Editor on your computer and creates desktop shortcuts to the
"Chat Editor" application and the "Chat Editor Import" folder.
