Hi Lisa, If you are ever unsure when you would need to type in computer braille, turn on the option in the braille display menu by going to the options menu, pressing k for keyboard options, and hitting the spacebar three times until you hear the option "do you wish to be notified when computer braille is required?" Until you know the device thoroughly, this should always be turned on. I believe there is one instance where you will not be advised when computer braille really is necessary, but it would be best if you kept this option turned on until you really know the ins and outs of the unit. HTH, Laura
