Hi,

I don’t know if there’s a driver, but I do know that I don’t want to use USB, because that would charge the unit, and the battery isn’t low.

 

What else can I try?

 

Thanks,

 

Jessica

Are you connecting over bluetooth?

Windows is notoriously bad with bluetooth.

Was there a driver that you installed for the Touch?

Did you try rebooting while the Touch is connected via USB?

HI have a braillenote touch+, and a windows pc running windows 10 and jaws 2020.

 

I’ve managed to pair the braillenote to the computer but when I attempt to connect it to jaws, my display says, “you can now pair your Braillenote touch with a host device. When the pairing is complete, turn your screen reader on and connect to the Braillenote using the Brailliant Bluetooth name.”

 

Nothing happens after that.

When I try to tell jaws which display to use, I’m told, “no active display, then it also states that my touch+ is the default, but I never see what jaws is saying on my display.

 

Can anyone help?

 

I apologize for cross-posting, as well as the lengthy explanation, but I figured the more info I provided, the better someone might be able to assist me.

 

I’m half tempted to uninstall and reinstall jaws, but want to see if there are any other solutions first.

 

Thanks,

 

Jessica
