[Trainer-talk] computer braille question

[Nusbaum, Christopher]

Sarah,

To add to what Dean has already said, space with U must usually be pressed before dot 4 in order to tell the BrailleNote that it should treat the proceeding dot 4 as an @ sign rather than a quotation mark. Also, pressing space with u twice will turn on caps lock on the BrailleNote.

Quick reference: on the Sense and Apex products, press space with u before a letter to make it uppercase.  At sign is space with dot 4.  Period is dots 46, comma dot 6, parentheses are the of and with signs, colon dots 156, slash dots 34.  Greater than, dots 345, less than, dots 126.  Exclamation point, the sign.  National Braille Press has a free very abbreviated braille quick reference.
