Thank you, but this is what I tried already, and it didn't work. I also
tried with different ports, but the display is simply not detected. I
even think that the problem is with Baum driver for Windows, rather than
JAWS driver, since it will also not work with any other screen reader
such as NVDA as well.
Just the note that the Baum Pronto's driver instructions are quite poor.
It seams they are not updated for a long time, since they still mention
JAWS 10 and Windows XP.

Go into the JAWS interface window and into the utilities menu. Open the Synthesizer and
Braille Manager. Use the button for "add, remove or change devices." Pick the
Braille Displays radio button and use the Next button. In the resulting list check the
Baum Pronto Braille display by using down arrow key to it and pressing spacebar to check
it. Use the Next button. If asked for a port to use make the appropriate choice. When
finished adding the display you can use the Braille menu item in the Options menu of JAWS
to modify settings. You will need to unload JAWS and start it again with the Braille
display turned on and connected before changes will take affect. I hope it works for
you! Take care.

Hi everyone,
I'm a new member on this list, and I'm speaking in the name of a person who is
using braille display with JAWS at his workplace. The situation is serious and
any feedback is urgent, so please try to help as much as You can. He's using
Windows 7 64-bit, JAWS 15, and Baum Pronto 40 braille display/notetaker.
The problem is, Braille Display is not detected even when drivers are installed
for both display and JAWS! It also doesn't work with other screen readers.
Here's what I've tried so far and it didn't work:
1. I've downloaded official drivers from baum's website.
2. I've connected braille display into the computer and I switched from
notetaker to computer mode.
3. In addition to the official Baum drivers, I've also tried all built-in JAWS
Baum drivers, and none of them worked. The problem is that even no errors were
displayed.
4. I downgraded to JAWS 14, and still not working.
5. I've tried bluetooth connection instead of USB. Paring was successfull, but
display wasn't detected by JAWS.
6. The display even wasn't detected by other screen readers, but according to
Windows, the driver is installed correctly.
So, what can be the problem? May be 64-bit Windows incompatible with Baum
Pronto, or Pronto's firmware to old. The Baum manual says that the JAWS version
must be 10 or greater, and it certainly is.
If you have any tips, please share. Just to mention again that the person is
using this braille display for work and not for private usage.
Thanks in advance,
Hrvoje
