Hi Shelley, I have a Braille Blazer, and I hook it up via the serial port. You use the adapter that comes with the braille note. Then you need another one so both ends have pins to hook into the blazer. I had one from the set of connections that came with the braille 'n speak.

Got a question. I have a Braille Blazer, yes I know I am behind the times. Smile. Is there a way to connect this dinosaur to the Braillenote? It uses a Parallel cable or a serial cable I think though I have always used the parrallel cable with it. Is there a converter or something that will allow it to work together? Shelley L. Rhodes B.S.
