Hello Jason,
Thank-you for the response. It’s good to know that it is possible to change the braille tables in the console of Arch. I will attempt your suggestions in the morning together with spending more time with help and preferences. I’m finding it challenging to both learn Linux and BRLTTY at the same time. I am familiar with the terminology of chord etc … I should point out that I am currently experimenting with Linux using an old Brailliant B 80 which does not have a Perkins-Style keyboard.

In the BRLTTY Preferences menu, change the Braille Variant to Contracted Braille, and remember to enable save on Exit. On my display, the command to enter the Preferences menu is dots 1-2-3-4 + Space (i.e., p-chord, if you're familiar with that terminology). If it is possible to change the braille table to Grade 2 UEB is there a way that I can switch between en-ueb-g2 and en-nabcc tables on the fly? Yes - on my display it's dots 1-2-4-5 + Space. Check the BRLTTY help information for your display to learn the commands assigned. Also, spend some time in the Preferences menu to customize BRLTTY as you prefer.
