Narrator

Narrator braille support is in beta. To opt-in to the beta, please follow the
instructions found in "Chapter 7: Using Narrator with braille"
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4004263/windows-10-narrator-using-
with-braille
from Microsoft Support. You will need to have your display in
emulation mode as a Refreshabraille 18 and select Baum as the manufacturer
inside the Narrator braille settings.
Narrator support for the Orbit Reader 20 Plus has been enabled for the release
1903 and onwards. If users are experiencing issues connecting with version
1903, follow these steps to fix the issue.
• Uninstall Narrator:
o Press the Windows logo key + I to open Settings.
o Select Apps, choose Apps & features, and then select Optional
features.
o Select Accessibility – Braille support, and then choose Uninstall.
• Reinstall Narrator:
o Press the Windows logo key + Ctrl + N to open Narrator settings.
o Under Use braille, select Download and install braille. (This takes
some time. Windows also asks if you're sure that you want to allow
Windows to make changes to your PC.)
o When download and installation is complete, select Enable braille.
Note: Narrator assigns "libusb" as the driver to the Orbit Reader 20 Plus. For the
present, for firmware upgrades and to work with screen reader applications other
than HID, you must go to the Narrator settings and choose the "Change your
braille display driver" setting to HID.
