Hi Glenn Yes, this is what I’d expect to happen. Oh, and the pairing code is 0000 as with many devices like this. Makes me wonder what is the point of implementing a code at all actually, given that there’s 0 security. However, it ain’t working for me I’m sorry to say. The Focus does, so I know my problem is related to the Apex. HumanWare UK tell me also that they are seeing similar problems and have alerted the Canadian subsidiary company which is HumanWare’s dev envelopment arm and asked them to investigate. As you may have seen in my response to Eileen’s post, I have tried numerous devices with the same result each time. But I won’t give up, maybe one time I’ll get lucky.
All this brings me to my next question. Is there a definitive source of commands for these displays? This also applies to the Mac as well.

Seems that one is for the QT, and the other is for the Braille keyboard. So in your IOS device, go to settings, and bluetooth and then go to BlueTooth in the apex connectivity area, and you will be prompted to enter the numbers on the IOS device. HTH.

If so, how did you accomplish this truly amazing feat? No matter how I tryI simply cannot get these devices to talk to each other. And yet, with the Freedom Scientific Focus40-blue it just clicked, as soen as I tried. If any BrailleNote user has managed this, I'd really love to know how you did it!
