Teradactyl
Section 508 Compliance Statement
|
|
| Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended
by Congress in the Workforce Investment Act of 1998, requires that
electronic and information technology used by Federal agencies be
accessible to people with disabilities.
Teradactyl is covered under section 1194.21 (Software Applications
and Operating Systems) of Section 508 and is fully compliant with
the guidelines set forth in Section 508. This page provides information
about Teradactyl's compliance, including a complete Voluntary Product
Accessibility Template (VPAT) documenting compliance.
All of the True incremental Backup System (TiBS) capabilities are
accessible to persons with disabilities through TiBS command line
interface and plain ASCII output options. In addition, TiBS is interoperable
with common assistive technologies for vision-impaired users.
Federal employees or individuals requiring more information on
Teradactyl's Section 508 compliance or with questions about the
True incremental Backup System with regard to Section 508, should
contact us.

Remarks
and explanations
|
| (a) When software
is designed to run on a system that has a keyboard, product functions
shall be executable from a keyboard where the function itself or the
result of performing a function can be discerned textually. |
Supported
|
All
features of TiBS are accessible via keyboard input. |
| (b) Applications
shall not disrupt or disable activated features of other products
that are identified as accessibility features, where those features
are developed and documented according to industry standards. Applications
also shall not disrupt or disable activated features of any operating
system that are identified as accessibility features where the application
programming interface for those accessibility features has been documented
by the manufacturer of the operating system and is available to the
product developer. |
Supported
|
No
accessibility features of any other products or operating systems
are disrupted or disabled by TiBS. |
| (c) A well-defined
on-screen indication of the current focus shall be provided that moves
among interactive interface elements as the input focus changes. The
focus shall be programmatically exposed so that Assistive Technology
can track focus and focus changes. |
Supported
|
The
standard input focus indication as provided by the operating system
is used by TiBS and is also available to Assistive Technology. Note
that it is not necessary to use interactive interface elements at
all to fully access the capabilities of TiBS. All functionality is
also available via documented commands, which may be typed or otherwise
input by a user. |
| (d) Sufficient
information about a user interface element including the identity,
operation and state of the element shall be available to Assistive
Technology. When an image represents a program element, the information
conveyed by the image must also be available in text. |
Supported
|
All
functionality is available via documented commands, which may be typed
or otherwise input by a user. All information in TiBS is available
as text. Assistive Technology such as a Screen Reader may make this
information available through speech synthesization or via a Braille
output device. |
| (e) When bitmap
images are used to identify controls, status indicators, or other
programmatic elements, the meaning assigned to those images shall
be consistent throughout an application's performance. |
Not
Applicable
|
|
| (f) Textual information
shall be provided through operating system functions for displaying
text. The minimum information that shall be made available is text
content, text input caret location, and text attributes. |
Supported
|
Standard
operating system functions are used to output text by TiBS. Output
is available as plain ASCII text and may easily be accepted by Assistive
Technology, such as a Screen Reader. Text input location at the text
input caret is set and available using standard operating system functions. |
| (g) Applications
shall not override user selected contrast and color selections and
other individual display attributes. |
Supported
|
User-defined
settings are fully respected by TiBS. |
| (h) When animation
is displayed, the information shall be displayable in at least one
non-animated presentation mode at the option of the user. |
Not
Applicable
|
|
| (i) Color coding
shall not be used as the only means of conveying information, indicating
an action, prompting a response, or distinguishing a visual element. |
Supported
|
All
output in TiBS is available as noncolor-coded plain ASCII text. |
| (j) When a product
permits a user to adjust color and contrast settings, a variety of
color selections capable of producing a range of contrast levels shall
be provided. |
Not
Applicable
|
|
| (k) Software
shall not use flashing or blinking text, objects, or other elements
having a flash or blink frequency greater than 2 Hz and lower than
55 Hz. |
Supported
|
TiBS
does not use flashing or blinking text at any time. |
| (l)
When electronic forms are used, the form shall allow people using
Assistive Technology to access the information, field elements, and
functionality required for completion and submission of the form,
including all directions and cues. |
Supported
|
It
is not necessary to use electronic forms to access the full functionality
of TiBS. All features of TiBS are accessible through command-line
keyboard input. |

Remarks
and explanations
|
| (a) At least
one mode of operation and information retrieval that does not require
user vision shall be provided, or support for Assistive Technology
used by people who are blind or visually impaired shall be provided. |
Supported
|
All
features may be accessed by text input, and all results may be accessed
as plain ASCII text. Assistive Technology can allow visually impaired
people to submit commands via voice input or other means and can allow
plain text results to be presented via speech synthesis or a Braille
display. |
| (b) At least
one mode of operation and information retrieval that does not require
visual acuity greater than 20/70 shall be provided in audio and enlarged
print output working together or independently, or support for Assistive
Technology used by people who are visually impaired shall be provided. |
Supported
|
Using
standard operating system features, enlarged print output is available
in TiBS. In addition, support for Assistive Technology is provided
to allow users with visual acuity less than 20/70 to submit commands
and retrieve results. |
| (c) At least
one mode of operation and information retrieval that does not require
user hearing shall be provided, or support for Assistive Technology
used by people who are deaf or hard of hearing shall be provided |
Supported
|
TiBS
produces no sounds, and hearing is not necessary to use TiBS. |
| (d) Where audio
information is important for the use of a product, at least one mode
of operation and information retrieval shall be provided in an enhanced
auditory fashion, or support for assistive hearing devices shall be
provided. |
Not
Applicable
|
TiBS
produces no sounds, and hearing is not necessary to use TiBS. |
| (e) At least
one mode of operation and information retrieval that does not require
user speech shall be provided, or support for Assistive Technology
used by people with disabilities shall be provided. |
Supported
|
All
features of TiBS may be accessed via keyboard text input. User speech
is not required to access the full functionality of TiBS. |
| (f) At least
one mode of operation and information retrieval that does not require
fine motor control or simultaneous actions and that is operable with
limited reach and strength shall be provided. |
Supported
|
TiBS
interoperates with Assistive Technology to allow input of commands
and retrieval of results via such methods as speech synthesis, speech
interpretation, and any other Assistive Technology method that may
