Repeat keys should be off with brltty. If a user wants repeated keys then that 
feature of brltty (autorepeat) should be turned on.

>>    2nd Cursor Routing row

>On.

On is the best. That gives access to more functions.

>>    2nd Cursor Routing delay
>
>500. 

That, I believe, is the default value. It's a good value so best leave it that 
way.

>I've tried both long and short presses of the routing buttons not
>knowing which should work. 

For clipboard operations, a quick, or short press. A long press gives you what 
the key table calls RoutingKey2.

>I've also tried routing first, thumb key first, and simultaneous.

Press the thumb key, hold it while tapping the routing key, and then release 
the thumb key.

Trying to do it too simultaneously may cause you to inadvertently press the 
routing key first. Taking too long will cause the thumb key binding to kick in. 
The amount of time you have depends on your autorepeat initial delay setting. 
If autorepeat is off then you have as much time as you want, with the thumb key 
binding only taking effect if you release it without pressing any other key 
first.
