Hi Kristen,
1.  No, it is not possible.  Since the emulator is part of the
Braille Terminal, and since VoiceNote does not have it, you
cannot use it, although you can use your keyboard to type on your
PC.
2.  Yes, it can be used anywhere to write any language that BN
supports (English, French, German, Italian and Spanish).
3.  No, the keyboard cannot act as a bridge device - a device
that is connected between two devices.  So you cannot use your
keyboard halfway between your VoiceNote and your PC.
Cheers,
Joseph

Hello Ms.  Panett,
I have some questions' about this?
1st: Do you think if I purchased a small QT keyboard I could hook
it up to my VN and use
either the QT keyboard or my vn's keyboard as emulator for my pc?
2nd: Does it have to be for a foren language could I use it you
know just for regular
english work?
Or: 3: Should I just go purchase some kind of keyboard that I'll
only halfway be able to
use for my pc and Vn to be companions'!
I want to take some of the wait off my VN to prolong it's life
and I think that this can
be accomplished by using a pc a bit.
The problem with that is I have trouble with the pc's keyboard
because it's not a braille
keyboard.
Any and all help that any and all of you can give me on these
matters' I shall greatly
appreciate!
                           ("SO FAITH, HOPE, LOVE REMAIN, THESE THREE; BUT
THE GREATEST OF THESE IS
LOVE!")
From Your FRIEND, In OUR LORD And SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST, And OUR

Kristen

Subject: [Braillenote] external QT keyboard

Dear List,

I tried an experiment today.  I plugged my usb keyboard into the
BN to see
how the MP would behave.  I was quite happy with the way it
worked.  You're
probably asking yourself,  "Why would she want to plug in an
external
keyboard when the unit is a QT model?  Well, I figured if the
English
keyboard would work then a foreign language keyboard should work,
too.  I
also thought it would be easier to write a foreign language with
a larger
keyboard and it was.

Here is how the keys behave.  The alt key behaves like the
function key when
you need to access the unicode tables and the macros.  It's much
easier to
press alt x and alt c on an external keyboard than it is on the
Bn's QWERTY
keyboard.  The function keys at the top of the external keyboard
take you
from task to task with one keystroke: f3 help, f4 word processor,
f5
calculator and so on.

When braille is required, the home row on the external works just
the same
as the home row on the BN's keyboard.  Plus, the BN's keyboard is
not
disabled when an external keyboard is plugged in.

There may be times when those of you who have BT keyboards might
find it
advantageous to plug in an external QWERTY keyboar, especially if
you're not
hep on writing in computer braille.  Foreign languages are easier
because
(1) your fingers don't get tangled up (2) you can turn on numlock
hold down
the alt key and write the numeric value of a unicode character
and (3) you
can use the two alt keys, whereas the BN has only one function
key.

I also discovered that if you press alt i, the BN will speak a
sentence.

Anyway, I thought this might be interesting to some of you.
