<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #1f497d">There hasn’t been an update
in a
long time for the Reader. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #1f497d">I connect mine to my PC
using
the USB cable, and that works fine. To make it connect using
Bluetooth,
follow the directions on pairing the Reader, which you can find in the user
guide.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #1f497d">If you’re having trouble
downloading to the Reader, there’s a whole section on that in the user guide
as
well. First you have to connect it to your wifi, and then you have to
put
in your login and password for BARD when you go to connect there. Same
for
Newsline. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #1f497d">To do any of these things,
it’s
crucial to know what grade braille the Reader is using. If you’re
trying
to enter a username and password, you can’t use grade 2 braille if it wants
computer braille, for instance. I always switch to computer braille,
because I’m very comfortable with that. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #1f497d">If you’ve followed the user
guide instructions for getting connected, and it still doesn’t work, I think
your best bet is to call the library and get someone to help you. They
should know the most. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #1f497d">If they can’t help you, I
can
review the relevant sections of the manual and try to help you. It’s
been
a good while since I set up my Reader, but I remember the instructions were
good.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Hi list just now was fiddling around on my computer in
Bluetooth and other divices in settings I want to connect my braille Ereader
to
the computer to see if maybe I can update it that way but for some reason
the
computer can’t seem to discover the device. I accidentaly paired my
computer to our sound system out in the livingroom by pairing it to a remo
4.2
and had to have my sister remove it. Why doesn’t the computer see the
NLS
reader. From time to time an unknown device pops up in the
choices.
My Iphone can identify the reader and it is paired. I even turned off
the
iPhone but the computer can’t see the reader. Any idea on what I might
be
doing wrong? Also if connected to the computer which of course is
online
would my reader be online if I paired it with the computer via Bluetooth and
can
I update the firmware that way? There is no update on the bard site
for
the reader apparently. I’m pretty sure an update will make it work so
I
can start to download books and read newsline on the reader.
