Hi Dawn,
I recently got a BrailleNote MPower and I have a Juliet embosser. At first
I had trouble getting it to emboss using the serial port, but I got help
from people on this list, HumanWare tech support, and tech support at
Enabling Technologies. Here is the information I got, and now my Juliet
works great with the MPower using the serial port. I hope this helps you.
In order to emboss on both sides of the paper, go to the embosser setup list
and when it asks if your embosser embosses on both sides of the paper, say
no; that's really weird but when you say no, the Juliet will emboss on both
sides of the paper. For small Braille paper, I set the page width to 30 on
the MPower and page offset to 2. For large Braille paper, I set the page
width on the MPower to 40. For both sizes of paper, set the paper length to
25. For the serial port, baud rate is 9600, parity is none, 8 data bits,
and hardware handshaking.
Do the following for the Juliet: 0.2E, 1.0E, 8.1E, (for small paper 14.32E
and for large paper 14.42E), then for either size, do 30.05e and 1.1e. This
will make the serial port the default menu on the Juliet.
I hope this helps--it works for me. If it doesn't work, I'd suggest calling
Cheryl or Jim at Enabling Technology's tech support. They were both helpful
and took the time to make sure my Juliet and MPower were working together
right.
Let me know how things work out.
Deborah

Subject: [Braillenote] Embosser setup with mpower
I just received a Juliet Pro for my son's mPower. I can get it to emboss
using our PC but not the Braillenote. I've tried using the IR port and the
serial port. Using the IR port only embossed Test B and the other times I
received Embosser Error 1053. Using the serial port, the BN said it was
embossing but nothing happened. Is there something special I need to do
that is not in either manual?
Thank you,
Dawn
