2.2 Using VarioUltra as a USB Braille Display.
With Device Mode set to braille display, insert the micro USB cable into
the micro USB port on VarioUltra, and the other end into the USB port of
your computer.
Here are some screen reader specific instructions.
2.2.1 VarioUltra with JAWS (USB).
An updated JAWS driver version 15.52 is available for VarioUltra. This
and other JAWS drivers are available for download from the BAUM USA
web site at http://www.baumusa.com/support/jaws-drivers/
If you do not install the JAWS VarioUltra driver, you will not find
VarioUltra listed among supported braille displays, and it will not work
with JAWS.
To use VarioUltra with JAWS using a USB connection:
1) Install the VarioUltra driver for JAWS.
2) Connect the USB cable to the micro USB port of VarioUltra, and to
the standard USB port of your Windows computer.
3) Switch on VarioUltra if you have not already done so. Your computer
may acknowledge that a new device has been connected.
4) Open the JAWS menu and go to menu Options > Braille. A dialog
window appears labeled Braille Basic Settings.
5) Enter ALT+B to select Add Braille Display. You can also tab through
the buttons to find and select it.
6) A new Select Components dialog window appears. Scroll down the
long list of supported braille displays to find VarioUltra 20 or
VarioUltra 40, or BAUM Universal USB. Press space to check the box
for whichever display option you choose, and then press enter to
move to the next window.
7) Make sure the output port is set to USB. If you specified more than
one braille display you may be prompted with the same question for
each display.
8) Next, select your primary device. For our example, we will pick
VarioUltra 40. Then select the Finish button.
