David, sorry but that one is wrong my friend. I was able to pair the
display while Voice Over wasn't running as I had stated in my prior
message in this thread. I just wanted that to be clear to the list that
this will work without Voice over running. Of course you can't use the
display without Voice Over, but that's another matter altogether. I
believe that Richard Turner also thinks it can be done. Then, Scott
Davert also confirmed that it can be done.
Cheers.

No, you cannot pair a braille display whilst VoiceOver is not running. Braille
displays must be paired through the VoiceOver menu, which can only be accessed
when VO is running. After a braille display is paired, you can see its status
in the Bluetooth menu, and you can reconnect it in the Bluetooth menu, but it
will only initially appear in the braille menu in the VoiceOver menu before it
is initially paired.

Hi, yes I know that there is no Braille support while Voice Over isn't running,
but that wasn't my question.
Cheers.

I'm almost certain that Braille support comes in voiceover. I believe I turned
off voiceover and Braille went away.

Hi all. My guess off the top would be that you can't do this, but I thought I'd
ask. I don't have anyone around who can help me figure this out on my own. So
here goes. If you are in a situation where you want to pair a Braille display
with an iPad or iPhone, but let's say that you are doing this remotely over the
phone and the person who will be doing this is sighted, can this be done
without Voice Over running? I'm in a situation where a client of mine isn't
comfortable enough with the iPad just yet but wants to pair the Braille display
with it. So, he's having someone sighted help. This sighted person isn't very
tech comfortable, but can do regular gestures and has her own iPhone in fact,
but knows nothing about Voice Over. So, I figured that if I can walk her
through pairing the display with the iPad without Voice Over running, I
wouldn't have to do on the spot training of Voice Over. If it can't be done,
then of course I'll do that, but I was trying to avoid extra work.
Thanks much.

It amazes me how annoying some people can be in 140 characters or less. -
