Hi Alex, This option should only be on our French based BrailleNotes (the VarioNote) or our Canadian French based BrailleNotes. To satisfy curiosity though, this setting basically governs how French grade 1 and 2 (their equivalents), are displayed.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention and I will log a task in our database to have this rectified.
