Hi Terri,
I purchased My BN with 5.0 keysoft. PDI updated it to 5.1 built 22 3 weeks
ago when I sent it to them for a maintenance. I had a problem in the 20th
cells, dot 4 wasn't appearing. I'm waiting for Dean reply to see what might be
the cause of this problem.
Thanks
Dr.KAAK

Dear Khalid,
Have you contacted PDI's Tech support? What version of Keysoft are you
running? If you recently upgraded to 5.1, you may have to reinstall
Keysoft. I wonder if the version of Keysoft in your BN might be corrupted.
I know I had to reinstall Keysoft 5.0 because Keysoft was giving me some
problems. My problems disappeared after I had reinstalled Keysoft.
If you have a brand new BN with Keysoft 5.1 in ROM, you may have to send it
back to PDI for servicing. I sincerely hope you don't have to do that!

: Hi Laura and list,
:
: That's correct when I have a word like "quaint" the brailleNote reads
it "qua9t" and so on. I can give you hundreds of examples like that. This
how my BN reads these BRF files.
:
: As I said before I can read but I can't listen to any books that are in
BRF format.
:
: Thanks and forgive me for bothering the list with this peculiar problem
which seems to exist in my BN only.

: Hi,
: Just for curiosity's sake, when your .brf file is being read
incorrectly, is
: the braille being interpreted as text? for instance, does the word
"would"
: in grade 2 displayed as the letters wd, read as such? is the wourd
"such"
: read as "s star"? i assumed your problem was what Maria described, but
: you've said that you have the file set to braille, so frankly, i have no
: idea. i have also tried to replicate this but cannot. Laura

: Hi Susan, Terri and list,
: I'm glad that I have a reply for this E-mail. till now I can't
listen to
: books if they're in BRF format.
: I did the following:
: 1- "review previous options" I pressed "y"
: 2- I pressed "t" for text.
: 3- "extended ASCII character option" I tried the 3 choices ["c" for
standard
: ASCII characters, "i" for ignored and "r" for retained].
: 4- "extended character set" I tried also the three choices: ["m" for
ms-dos,
: "a" for ANSI and "i" for the international ms-dos].
: I used 3 and 4 interchangeably, still no way to let the BrailleNote read
: them correctly. What I'm doing wrong?
: Is there something messing I should do?
:
: side note: if I went to the file manager and I translated the BRF files
into
: text I can listen to them. I don't want to go through this tedious way.
I
: would like to listen to the BRF files directly without translating them
: specially if the book is in 30 files or more than that.
: I hope I'll be able to listen to book soon.
: Thanks for any help in advance

: The problem may be when opening the file you are asked if you want to
: review
: the options. Type y and see if the file is braille or text. I've had
: that
: happen when I opened a file and thought it knew it was braille. After
I
: changed the setting it read perfectly.
