[BRLTTY] Running Freedom Scientific Focus 14 in Windows 8 And Clarification on Errors

Hi,

I have got a Freedom Scientific Focus 14 ( which has only USB ) and trying
to connect to it with BralApi (using  a   client program )  in Windows 7
 machine.  It looks like Brltty is unable to identify the device. I have
tested the device with JAWS free version.

I  just started this activity.  Can you please verify the following .

1. For initial testing I used  freecat\brltty-win-4.4-1-libusb-1.0 binary.
( though later want to use the compiled version from latest brltty source -
using mingw)
   Downloaded and ran *run-debug.bat *with
.\bin\brltty -b fs -xno -p none -A auth=none  -l debug  -n -e  > debug.log
2>&1
  -b => freedom scientific
  -x => no screen reader
  -p =>  no speech
Note that I did not install any thing.  Brltty Log is pasted at the bottom.
Looks like it is not identifying the device.

Clarification :
a) libsub_fnction error in the  log : Is it because I need to perform any
additional step like running *brltty-libusb-1.0.inf. *mentioned below in
(b).   All the libsub0.dll,  libusb0_x64.dll and  libusb-1.0 are available
in the same directory as brltty.exe. Do I need to set any evironment
variable?.  Is it need to add any command line input to run bllrtty to use
USB?


 b) The freedom scientific driver got installed when I first connected teh
device to USB  (while using  JAWS). The readMeText  files in
"brltty-win-4.4-1-libusb-1.0".  says to run *brltty-libusb-1.0.inf. [I have
pasted the instruction below].  Is it needed? How it affect the already
installed driver?  *If I run that when I use  JAWS what step to be done?
 Do there have any change needed in brltty.exe command line input


*
*
Any direction is highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Siju samuel
