Hi, You might want to check the serial port number that was assigned to the USB driver: Go to Control Panel, select System, go to Hardware page and open Device Manager. Under ports list, check the port number assigned to the USB driver. Take a note of that and tell JAWS (from speech and braille manager) to use that port for BrailleNote (and make sure to also tell it to use signed driver, not the default one). Cheers, Joseph

The first time I tried I was using bluetooth but this time I thought I would try USB. I went to jaws selected Braillenote as my braille display without any issues. Then I recieved the message that I needed to restart jaws for the changes to work. So I did this I shut Jaws off then tried to restart it. Jaws didn't come back up when I hit the command and there was nothing on the braillenote that I had already put into terminal mode. I then shut down the computer and turned it back on. Once windows was loaded Jaws which is set to start straight away didn't come up. I ended up bringing up an older version of jaws so I could then remove the braille display from Jaws 13 and then it loaded without any issues. So I am wondering if there is something I am doing wrong or is it something with the latest version of Jaws or is there something else I should be doing. I really want to get the Apex working as my braille display for some work I am hoping to get, but this time I wanted it for a course I am doing tomorrow but I will have to go without this time. Hoep someone can help me get to the bottom of this issue. >From Shaz. BN QT Apex and PK user. ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
