<p>Hi List,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I get a very old, but working Focus 1 Braille display (70 cell
modell), but I am unable to yet request to working with Linux in
console and Orca in Brltty. :-):-)</p>
<p>Perhaps have a fatal thing with I am not known yet this display
type (I newer worked with Freedom Scientific Focus modells).
:-):-)<br>
</p>
<p>I connect the display with a normal USB cable the right hand USB
connection, my braille display I seeing the focus 70 text in
Braille, more space character, perhaps a dot 5 point, a 46 dot
combination, and a 356 and 12 characters.</p>
<p>Lsusb says following this display:</p>
<p>Bus 001 Device 008: ID 0f4e:0100 Freedom Scientific <br>
</p>
<p>Enjoy, not more. :-):-)</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I have got an Alva Satellite 570 pro modell with works succesfull
with Brltty, during I looking the focus display I turned off my
Alwa display and restart brltty.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Because I newer seeed Focus Braille display, what can I need
doing to Debian 12.0 and Ubuntu 20.04 BRLTTY works perfect the
Focus display?</p>
<p>Because Braille displays are very expensive in Hungary (larger
cell modells are more than 800 thousand ft), I would save the
Focus Braille display as a backup device later in case my old Alva
Satellite 570 display breaks down, but I would like to know for
sure how to get this model up and running under Linux later.
:-):-)<br>
Unfortunately, the Perkins Braille keys stick during use, but you
can read perfectly on this model as well.<br>
</p>
<p>Is this model still serviced at all in the European Union or in
the United States? Can you get parts for it?<br>
Actually, only the keyboard part should be renovated, the cells
are intact, although I could give a complete assessment of the
state of the piezo cells if the display was working in Linux.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The display is a Freedom Scientific Focus1 70 cell display.<br>
I attached a log using the sudo brltty -ldebug -L brltty.log
command, compressed in zip format.<br>
I see this interesting part the log file (I am using in Ubuntu
20.04 with Brltty 6.5 with Linux 5.15.0-101-generic kernel):</p>
