Glad to hear someone has already thought of a USB keyboard for braille entry.

Yes, I know you can change the keys used for six-key, and I've tried various settings. It didn't help with this keyboard.

I read of a way to test a keyboard for this. It said to go into a simple text editor like Notepad and press all the keys for the six keys simultaneously. So, pressing F D S J K L all at once should give you all six characters on the screen. If you consistently get anything less, then the keyboard won't work. In my case, I get two or three letters appearing.
