Hi,
What screen reader do you use and which Apex keyboard model do
you have? Also, which connection method (USB or Bluetooth) are
you using? In order to use Apex as a keyboard, you need support
from screen reader.
Cheers,
Joseph

Subject: [Braillenote] Apex As Keyboard for PC
Is it possible to use the Apex as a keyboard for operating a PC?
I connected my Apex to my Dell Duo via Bluetooth, but none of the
three options permit the Apex to serve as a keyboard to operate
the computer. For those who don't know about the Dell Duo, it's
a soon-to-be-discontinued netbook computer with a display that
flips to switch between standard netbook and a touch pad. The
touch pad option is not accessible with a screen reader, but some
are able to run the Dell Duo in its touch pad mode with the ad of
external keyboards and refreshable Braille displays equipped with
keys. Because the docking station for the Dell Duo can only be
operated in its touch pad mode, an external keyboard is critical
for non-visual operation. My guess is that the Apex will not
serve as an external keyboard for another device, but I thought I
would ask anyhow. Thanks much in advance for the info!
