Hi there Just because it doesn't tell you about voice over in the manual does not mean that it is not supported in voiceover. How do I know? Because my focus 14 blue is not listed in a discussion of using on the Mac in the focus 14 blue manual. The focus, at least in my manual, never says a word about voiceover except for the iPhone. However, my display is listed under its manufacturer in the voiceover manual for the Macintosh for supported Braille displays. So, you might look in the Getting Started with VoiceOver in Apple's website and see if it's on the list. You first look under the manufacturer, and then it has the displays under that manufacturer that are supported.
In the case of Freedom Scientific, for example, they act the Mac does not exist almost because if tell them you are using a Mac they immediately tell you to call Apple. That's because they sell JAWS, of course, which is under Windows. Since there are about 40 braille displays listed under supported braille displays on Apple's website, I would be surprised if yours wasn't listed there. I was most impressed to see the braille displays listed there, some of which I never heard of before. Also, when you connected your display to your computer, did you get braille? If you did, then VoiceOver is recognizing your display and it's on the list somewhere, I'll bet because VoiceOver only recognizes those displays that are on the list of supported braille displays. I don't think you would see braille on your display if you are able to get braille on it without going through more complicated connections. I hope what I just said makes sense.
