Hi Mel,

You can do one of two things. (And for the second, I have to
declare a commercial interest)

1) In DBT, go to the Global Menu, and select "View
Preferences".

There you will see that the "6 Key Set" is set to "fdsjkl".

You can change this, but may need to experiment a little.
For example, we found that "ewqop[" worked on a (British)
Fujitsu keyboard layout.

On the other hand,

2) Go to http://www.techno-vision.co.uk/galatee.htm and take
a look at a six-key entry keyboard for which I personally
laid down the specification. (And that specification started
with "I want it this to work with DBT 6 key input, so no
extra bells and whistles - keep it simple!")

George.

Subject: [duxuser] Problem with entering 6 Keys to produce
braille document 



Hello everyone,
I am having a problem with entering 6 keys as braille dots
(f, d, s, & j,
k, l) to display braille document with DBT 10.6.  I have a
Dell computer
which I purchased it in Feb. 2005.  The computer is
connected to a USB
keyboard and is not displaying certain braille letters when
pressing the six
keys method.  Does anyone have any suggestion as to what I
need to do to
display all braille letters with the 6 keys?  Do I need to
buy a different
keyboard?  Thanks so much for your help.
Mel
