Brendon, Sharondha, and others, Brendon, just for your information: before we use any software or hardware, we ned to configure to meet our demands. At this situaiton, if you are using a screen reader, you need to tell the screen reader (there should be a place to do it) that you want the screen reader to output the display to your BrailleNote. And then you connect the cable, and you tell the BrailleNote that you wish to go to terminal for screen reader.

I have so questions. 1. My Serial port on my computer is a male, like the one on the BN. Is there such a thing to change the cord that came with the BN to work with a 25 female serial port? (If I'm wrong about male/female, let me know) 2. Could I buy a serial to USB converter and my BN work as a braille display? 3. If so, what kind should I look for? Thanks for writing back with all help.
