Hello Brian, Well it is not making sense to me. I probably need to specify command line options at boot time because I have no idea what version of Braille this display is working from. I have set to UEB and the English UK table in the brltty.comf. But why th sign is 4 and other numbers are the ar and gh signs is very odd to me. I can produce a large number of symbols accept for full stop and the at symbol.
