[nabs-l] braille desplays and iPhone 4s

[Sophie Trist]

Kaiti and all, that is a common misconception. When pairing a 
braillenote apex with an iPhone, you do not search for devices. 
Here are the steps of the process.

Braillenote Apex Set-Up:
Press space + O for options menu (function + o on a QT)
 Press C for connectivity.
 Press B for bluetooth.
 • Type Y to answer yes to turn on bluetooth.
 Return to main menu with space + all 6 dots (main menu key on 
the QT)

 Press T for braille terminal mode.
 Press B to change the communication channel from USB to 
bluetooth.

iOS Device Set-Up:

 With VoiceOver turned on and the iOS device running iOS 4 or 
later: Enter the settings menu.
Select general.
 Select accessibility.
 Select Voiceover.
 Select Braille.
The iOS device scans the area for available braille displays and 
will show the Braillenote Apex. Select the Apex. An authorization 
code of 0000 needs to be entered on the iOS device at this point.
You do have a certain amount of time to enter the authorization 
code, but I have done it successfully and independently many 
times.
HTH,
Sophie

Hi,

You can connect a notetaker to the IPhone through a bluetooth
connection.  Search for the devices on both the notetaker and the
IPhone, (settings, bluetooth).  You may need someone to help you 
enter
the code on the IPhone as at least in my experiences it times out
pretty quickly, but that should do it.
