Hello Joe,

You can only assign VoiceOver commands to a Braille display, or to any 
commander for that matter. Cmd-q is a standard Mac command and not a VoiceOver 
command. Using a Braille display to drive your Mac, you’ll need to go into the 
menus and click the appropriate command.

Cheers,

Anne
