For information, the previous email specified that Gim was using Bluetooth
as his port of connection.
Cheers, Blake.

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!
