This isn't describing how to get JAWS itself to control an old braille device. 
It's describing how to configure the system so that BRLTTY will control the 
braille device when in a text window but JAWS will control it when in a 
graphical window.

For what you're looking for, we'd need to write a braille driver for JAWS that 
communicates with BRLTTY (that's how BRLTTY works with NVDA). This, in turn, 
would require two things: the documenation for how to write a JAWS driver, and 
a pile of money for our driver to be accepted by the JAWS vendor. 
Unfortunately, we have neither the documentation nor the money.

No need to apologize for that.

>Oh one thing more, Excuse my mishandeling of English Language.

As near as I can tell, you haven't misused the English language in any way. 
Even if you did, such things aren't policed here.
