I have 5.1 and discovered dot 5 appearing in my document for my nut sales. I was using space 5 to move word by word. It turned out my finger must have been slipping or I was not putting enough pressure when making my commands. Could this also be happening when you use the space 4. Maybe that is where the dot 4 is coming from. Press straight down, now with your finger half on the key. Try it, it might help.

Hi, Caitlin: If you exercise the Braille display, does that help? Yes, my sister used the 6.11, and had no trouble. She received an mPower, and the dot four is coming up on that machine. She had no trouble with 6.11. > ----- Original Message ----- >From: "Caitlin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected] >Date: Thu, 1 Dec 2005 06:34:47 -0800 >Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Dot 4 Showing Up A Lot in KS 6? >Hmmm, that's interesting.
