Hi Jeronimo,
Thanks for the suggestion.
Optelec Braille voyager doesn't appear in the manager in the last two or three versions of Jaws and I have never had problems with its installation and using.
Doesn't metter, I have to think about and look for the solution.
Thanks all for the ideas.

Hi,
I think as long as you don't have a device in device manager which actually provides a serial com port you don't have a chance.
My device manager shows me:
Papenmeier Braillex II USB Device.
This provides the com-port necessary. Internally all braille displays use com-ports even nowadays.

Hi Jeronimo,
The manual says that this unit is equipped with HID, the acronyme of
so-called human interface device, which means that operating system has
to recognize it automaticaly and it does every time I put the USB cable
into PC's USB port. But I don't know why jaws doesn't recognize it as a
USB device after the installation of jaws driver for it, that's the
question.
Thanks for the advice about the usb to serial converter, it seems I
should ask the dealer for it.

Hi,
the display mostlikely uses an ftdi usb2serial adaptor. Maybe this device driver has to be installed prior to the jlb file which contains the jaws driver. At least that is the case with my Papenmeier display and I no that Handytech used ftdi usb2serial for a long time as well.
Actually you have ttwo devices if you install the braille display.

Hello,
I try to install new Handytech EasyBraille HID Braille display under jaws10 but no luck. I start the jaws driver from the EasyBraille CD but the installation process can't finish because jaws crashes every time after the installation. Despite of the fact that this unit connects via USB port, jaws trys to call it from the com1.
This is from the jfw.ini after the installation:
Braille1Name=Handy
Braille1LongName=Handy Tech
Braille1Port=Com1:19200,o,8,1
Braille1Driver=handy

Anybody have an idea how to cure this manualy?
Thanks!
