Hi folks, mostly NVDA users: I have succeeded in using Apex as a braille display with NVDA via USB connection. Here's what you need to do: 1. Install the BrailleNote Apex UsB driver. 2. Install BRLTTY. 3. At the end of the setup screen, BRLTTY will ask you about the braille display in use. At this point, connect the Apex to the computer via USB port, select USB client as terminal mode connection and tell BRLTTY to use BrailleNote connected through USB. At this point, when BRLTTY installation is done, Apex should display "no foreground window" (in computer braille) on the braille display. 4. From NVDA Menu, go to Preferences/Braille. 5. At the list of braille displays, select BRLTTY and click OK. The Apex should now display what NVDA says on the screen. Cheers, Joseph ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
