8.
After a few seconds, you will receive a message informing you
that the Bluetooth device was successfully connected and the
outgoing and incoming COM port assignments are displayed.
Make a note of the outgoing port number as this is the port
JAWS will use to communicate with the Focus. Choose Finish to
close the wizard and then OK to close the Bluetooth Devices
dialog box.
You must now configure JAWS to use the COM port that was added
when you paired the Focus. To configure JAWS, do the following:
1.
Press INSERT+J to open the JAWS window.
2.
Press ALT+O to open the Options menu and select Braille to
open the Braille Basic Settings dialog box.
3.
In the Default Braille Display combo box, make sure Focus is
selected then choose Modify Settings.
4.
In the list of COM ports, select the port that corresponds to the
outgoing COM port number that was displayed after you finished
pairing the Focus, for example, COM4.
Note: In some cases, the Bluetooth COM port may be assigned a value
greater than eight. Since JAWS only lists COM1 through COM8, if
this happens, you can delete the number and enter the one you
need, for instance, you could replace COM8 with COM9.
5.
Select OK and you are instructed to restart JAWS in order for
these changes to take affect. Select OK to close this message
and once more to close the Braille Basic Settings dialog box.
6.
Quit and restart JAWS and your Focus 40 Blue is now
communicating with JAWS over Bluetooth.
To check the battery status, press the power button to display the
percentage of battery power remaining. The letters "BT" are also
displayed in cells 38 and 39 to indicate the Bluetooth connection is active.
Press a cursor router or Navrow button to return to normal operation.
