Re: Sorry for last message Braille displays again

2012-10-04 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, Donna,

Once you have the display paired with your device, you shouldn't need to do it 
again. If it's paired, just turn it on and then turn the device on, and the 
Braille will show the screen within seconds.

HtH,
Teresa

Hi Donna,

It depends a bit on the display, but for the most part, once you have them
successfully connected, follow this pattern:
When you are done using the display, lock the phone, then turn off the
display.
When you want to use the display again, make sure the phone is locked, turn
on the display, (with some it helps to wait about 10 or 15 seconds) then
unlock the phone.
They should reconnect without any trouble.

HTH,
Richard

I am trying to get to grips with using a Braille display. It is proving a
steep learning curve. I am finding it difficult to reconnect the display via
Bluetooth when the display has been disconnected. What  is the best way to

Re: Sorry for last message Braille displays again

2012-09-30 Thread Ron Miller
Hi,
Any time you need to re-connect your braille display with the iPhone or you've 
locked your iPhone and want it to come up and begin displaying braille when you 
wake it up, remember to always have the braille display powered on before you 
re-start or unlock your iPhone. I can only speak authoritativly about the Focus 
Blue braille displays, but when the displan is already on, the phone should 
find the display when it ues up, or is unlocked using the power butson or the 
Home button.

As long as Bluetooth is active, the iPhone should find the braille display if 
it has already been paired with the phone.

Best regards

Ron Miller

Re: Sorry for last message Braille displays again

2012-09-30 Thread Scott Davert
Hi Donna.
If you're finding that your display is not automatically reconnecting
as the other 2 posters have outlined, you may want to try a
springboard reset. You do this by pressing the lock/power button 6
times in rapid succession. Your phone should restart itself, and the
display should reconnect. I've noticed this being an issue more with
the Braille Sense and the Apex than anything, and that's how I have
fixed it.

HTH,
Scott

Re: Sorry for last message Braille displays again

2012-09-30 Thread David Chittenden
If your display disconnects whilst your iOS device is on, first try locking and 
then unlocking the device. If that does not work, turn the device off and then 
on again.

Crashing the Springboard by pressing the power button multiple times whilst VO 
is running is definitely not recommended by Apple, and is the only restart 
method that has ever corrupted data on my iPhone 4. Note that Apple disabled 
this crashing method when VO is not running.
