Hi,
We offer two different keyboards that enable Grade II/I and Grade 0. It is connected via the USB port and is automatically seen by Windows as a keyboard. One can input Braille into a document and have some basic Windows command access and full cursor navigation through the keyboard.


Please feel free to contact me off list should you require any specific information.

Take Care

Hello All:

One of the transcribers in our Instructional Materials Center wanted me
to pose this question. Are there Braille keyboards available which can
be connected to a PC via USB or Bluetooth which will allow you to do
six-key entry in Duxbury using Braille? This person indicated that for
some letters, it's difficult to do six-key entry using FDS/JKL. Any
answers you can provide on whether or not there is a Braille keyboard
you can hook up to do six key entry would be appreciated. I'm pretty
sure you can do this with a Braillenote or PacMate using Bluetooth.


Thanks,
