I've used some hours struggling with BRLTTY on a new Phone, Pixel 10,
connected with bluetooth to an Actilino 16 cells braille display. Here
are som findings that maybe can be looked into:
- The documentation says you can go to the Actions Screen by pressing
space+dot12345678. However, this doesn't work from Actilino, neither when
braille input is on nor if it's off.
- The Global Actions can be reached using the funciont keys. On the
Actilino you can perform the f1--f16 using the respective cursor
routing key in combination with LeftRockerUp+LeftRockerDown. However,
I cannot find this combination noted in the key map documentation.
- The alternative way, like, from the manual: «Space + Dots78 + Dots125 (h) goes to the
home screen» doesn't work with Actilino.
- Using Chrome to access web pages: I'm not able to find the address bar
with braille.
- I'm not able to activate the structural navigation mode, neither from
braille input mode nor when it's turned off.
Thanks in advance,
Lars
