To select a display, open the Braille Display option in the Window-Eyes File
menu. There is no driver for Window-Eyes for versions prior to 7.1;
however, you may use Orbit Reader by selecting any Baum display with

Select the display and set the COM port number established when

Key Lock Command
The Key Lock command prevents accidental key presses. The command is to
hold dots 7 8 for two seconds or more. Pressing and holding these same
keys again unlocks the keys. You can also unlock the keys by turning the
device off and back on again.
System Alerts
System alerts, such as "Battery low" are indicated by a periodic cycling of
the eight dots in the last cell of the device. Any information in that cell is
displayed again after the notification.
Alerts are seen by invoking the Menu or the Editor Context Menu. Pressing
Select causes the next alert to appear, if there are any more. The alert is
removed from the alert list once it has been displayed.
If no more alerts are in the list, the first Menu or Editor Context Menu item
appears. Pressing dot 7 clears all pending alerts and puts you back at the
first Menu or Editor Context Menu item.
If the alert message length is longer than 20 characters, the user can
navigate through the message using the Panning buttons. If you are already
in the Menu or Editor Context Menu when an alert happens, you can review
the alert by pressing the Space key.
Reboot the Device
The unit can be rebooted by pressing the lower Right Panning key + dot 8.
There is no indication of the reset event. The unit is in power off condition
after reset and needs to be powered on before it can be used.
