john, you could also use a usb to serial adapter which is what i have
on my system so i can use the serial port of my alva instead of the
paralell port. i do this because window-eyes does not support parallel ports.

Hi,
This is rather long but since it may help someone else, I'll explain what I
did with this display.
It turned out to be an Alva Delphi 40 cell after all.
The German in the menue doesn't seem to matter as it works perfectly fine
with Jaws10 after some tinkering.
I didn't have a serial cable with both female ends so I tried a parallel
cable but Jaws only offered com ports when adding a display.
I modified the jfw.ini file replacing auto (which I tried first) with lpt1.
That did the trick.
I do get "the selected port is invalid" message if I look under advanced
braille display options but since I don't want to change the port, I just
continued setting options for the display.
Maybe this will help someone with a similar situation.
Jon
