Oh, that's the 'wonderful' Power 123 switch and lock. Unfortunately my
'classic' Focus40 Blue is too old for that, but it feels so groovy
reading on it at times. However, I have a Focus14 (which I use with
iPhone) to which I was able to apply the Power 123 firmware update. I
got the 14 before the update became available, but it was still within
the range for the update.

The following comes from the Focus 40 Blue User Guide:
Locking the Perkins-style Keyboard
When using your Focus Blue in front of your computer’s QWERTY
keyboard, you can lock the Perkins-style keys on the top of the
display to prevent accidentally pressing them and entering unwanted
text or commands.
To lock the Focus Blue keyboard, press the Power button to display the
status information and then simultaneously press a Cursor Router and
the left Mode button. To indicate that the keyboard is locked, DOTS
2-3-4-6-7-8 and DOTS 1-3-5-6-7-8 will be displayed in two cells toward
the right end of the display, just before the connection status. Press
any other control to return to normal operation. Once locked, pressing
DOTS 1 through 8 or the SPACEBAR will no longer send keystrokes
through to the computer.
To unlock the keyboard so you can once again enter text or perform
commands from the Focus Blue, press the Power button to display the
status information and then simultaneously press a Cursor Router and
the right Mode button. Press any other control to return to normal
operation and you can once again enter text using the Focus Blue
keyboard.
Thanks,
Ari

I know that there's a keyboard lock mode on the Focus Braille
displays.
Maybe you accidentally locked your keyboard.
Thanks,

What were you doing (or trying to do) when the keyboard stopped
working?
have you been able to try out any other BT keyboard with your iPhone?
Try
out the focus Blue with any other device? there will also be a
Diagnostics
Mode, which your Users' Guide you would've got with the Focus will
tell
you about (in one of the appendices, I think), that'll tell you how
to
test the keys and buttons on the display with the displayed
disconnected.

Hi everyone,
A couple of days ago the keyboard on my Focus 40 Blue Braille
display
stopped working with my iPhone (and my Mac). I really need it for
university
to take notes. I've only had it for about a week and a half. My
dealer
hasn't gotten back to me about this yet. First of all, how do I get
the
display writing again? Second of all, how might I have gotten into
this
mess? Third of all, how do I prevent it from happening again?
I really need your advice about this. I'd be very appreciative of
any
help I
could get. Thanks,,
