RE: focus 40 Braille Display

[denise avant]

I guess I didn’t know it was even possible to do that. So I don’t know. I was 
in the notes app, though that should not make a difference.

Hi Denise,

 

I had no problems entering an email message with my Focus 40 braille display on 
an iPhone 7 running iOS 10.3. I know it's possible to turn off the keyboard on 
the Focus. Is there any chance you did that by accident?

 

Best,

Anna

Hello all,

I recently paired a focus 40 braille display with my iPad, wich runs the latest 
IOS. I could read the braille on the display. However, I was unable to enter 
characters when in editing mode. Has there been a problem with the most recent 
ios update and the focus? Thanks.

Re: Focus 40 Braille Display

[Teresa Cochran]

If you're using IOS6, you will have to use the panning keys to go to the next 
line. When you're in the text of a page, you can use dots 1-3-5 chord to go to 
the next page. When you're on the page control, you can use dot-6 chord to go 
to the next page.

Here's a list of Braille commands. It's not Focus 40-specific, but all these 
commands work on that display.

Re: Focus 40 Braille Display

[Ron Miller]

Hi Marie,
Pressing the right rocker bar up or down will move you to the previous or next 
page in a book when you're using iBooks.

Another useful control in this context may be the left selector button which 
activates the Back button, if there's one on the screen (I use this control a 
log).

Best regards

Ron Miller

Re: Focus 40 Braille Display

[Woody Anna Dresner]

Hi Hope,

When you're on the last line of a page (or you go too far and back up a line), 
press Space with O, or press down on the right rocker bar to go to the next 
page. Pressing up on the right rocker or pressing 2-4-6-chord takes you back a 
page.

HTH,
Anna
