Dear Jason,


Thanks for reaching out with your questions. Yes, the focus commands for 
emulating the Windows+D and Alt+Tab keystrokes are indeed mentioned on 
the user's guide. Depending on where you look online, the user guide 
that is from the official Freedom Scientific page is below:


https://www.freedomscientific.com/Content/Documents/Manuals/Focus/Focus40Blue/Focus-40-Blue-Online-Users-Guide.htm#commandsoverview


In the above link, if you look under the "Commands Overview" section, 
there are subsections for modifyer keys, windows commands, Braille 
commands, ETC. they will be explained and listed in tables which are 
neatly laid out for JAWS to read. I would take a look at this page to 
learn how to simulate the keystrokes you need and to refer to.


Hope this helps. If you have further questions, let me know.

Take care,


Humberto

I’m looking at the online userguide with all the Jaws input commands on the focus 40, but there are a couple of items I do not see on it. Firstly, I am not sure how to perform the windows D function with the display Perkins keys to go to the desktop. Next, I can’t figure out how to press the key combination to perform the windows key function, the one that takes us to the search bar to search for all of our apps. Lastly, I am not able to simulate an alt tab on the Perkins keyboard. Do any of you know what any of these keystrokes are or if they do or don’t exist? I would really appreciate your help. Thank you.
