Sadly, that is the reality of braille devices V.S. standard keyboards.

Is this normal Bluetooth behavior? Is it a function of the Brailliant? Is there 
something I can do to optimize the connection with the Brailliant? I really 
prefer Braille output and input, plus the Brailliant is smaller and easier to 
take along.

Thoughts?

Bluetooth A Bit Iffy

2019-01-03 Thread Susie Stageberg 
Hi everyone.

 

I have both a Logitech keyboard and a Brailliant 14 to use with my phone. I
am finding that while the Brailliant does a lovely job of helping me
navigate the phone, it's a little touchier as far as connection is
concerned. First of all, if I don't turn on the Brailliant first and let it
come all the way up, before I even touch the phone, it won't connect at all.
Even after a connection is established, sometimes it cuts out on me in the
middle of something; sometimes after this happens it comes back on its own
and sometimes not. On the other hand, the Logitech can be switched on when
I'm already in the middle of something and it pretty much doesn't fail.

 

Is this normal Bluetooth behavior? Is it a function of the Brailliant? Is
there something I can do to optimize the connection with the Brailliant? I
really prefer Braille output and input, plus the Brailliant is smaller and
easier to take along. 

 

Thoughts?

 

Susie
