I also got a Focus 40 Blue Braille display, which I am trying to pair with Narrator. I managed to pair it as a Bluetooth display with NVDA, but I primarily intend to use it with Narrator instead. I got it to work for a little while, but after the recent Windows update, it stopped working. I uninstalled BRLTTY, and reinstalled it. Now, when I open the BRLTTY Configurator, select Freedom Scientific, then USB-Bluetooth as the communication port, it gives me an error that my Braille display was selected more than once, and that access is denied. I’m not sure what the error says exactly because it disappears from the screen before Narrator can read it fully. Anyone else experiencing this issue, and is there any way that I can go about fixing it? I’ve also installed the actual Focus drivers on my computer as well.<span lang=NL><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal> <span lang=NL><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>Any advice you can provide is greatly appreciated, I thank you all in advance for your help!<span lang=NL><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal> <span lang=NL><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>All the best, and I look forward to hearing from you all soon!<span lang=NL><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal> <span lang=NL><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>Cheers,<span lang=NL><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal> <span lang=NL><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>Siena. <span lang=NL><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></blockquote></div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:36.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt'><span lang=NL>_______________________________________________<br>This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.<br>To post a message, send an e-mail to: <a href="mailto:BRLTTY@brltty.app"><span style='color:#0563C1'>BRLTTY@brltty.app</span></a><br>For general information, go to: <a href="http://brltty.app/mailman/listinfo/brltty"><span style='color:#0563C1'>http://brltty.app/mailman/listinfo/brltty</span></a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
