Hi, I realize that, what I meant was that you can't use Braille Terminal natively via USB. Sorry for not making this clear.

With the proper adapter, I think that this would work. I would advise phoning into HumanWare and seeing about obtaining a USB to Serial adapter that connects into the USB port of your PC and the Serial goes to your BrailleNote. With this arrangement, your PC should recognize it as a Serial instead of a USB device, thus allowing you to use your BrailleNote as a braille display. Good Luck!

When connected to Com1 I was able to get JAWS to recognize the Braillenote as a Braille Display. However, I wasn't able to get it to work using a USB cable, so I'm not sure you can set the BN up as a Braille Display running on a USB connection. I checked the BN User's Guide and it states that you need to use the serial port for Braille Display setup. Thanks, hope that helps.
