The file will then be sent to the MB and Embossed. You may use the MB Print 

Control facilities to either Pause or Abort the Embossing if necessary. 

Note: 

Ensure that the MB has paper loaded and is ready to receive the file before 

sending. 

MB Print Control 

Press the Command (Control) key if you need to pause Embossing. The Embossing 

may not stop immediately but will when the buffer is emptied. You may then either continue 
embossing or abort the process. To continue, press the New Line, Space, Enter, or 
Backspace key. To abort, press any of the braille dot keys. 

Chat  Mode        M 

This is a Toggle function. When selected, it will be ticked. To de-select it, simply 

click it again. 

Selecting Chat Mode allows interaction between the MB and computer keyboard. 

What is typed on the PC keyboard is brailled on the MB, and what is typed on the MB 
keyboard is displayed on the computer screen. 

Text displayed on the PC from the MB will be Grade Zero or what is known as 

Computer Braille Code. If you wish to see correct text displayed on the computer when 
using chat mode, turn on the MB back translation. 

If you wish to type on the PC and get the correct braille, turn on Forward 

Translation. 

Note:

 You cannot edit the computer screen, and you can only translate one way at 

a time. You cannot have back and forward on at the same time.  

You may also send MB Commands from the PC keyboard by using the curly 

brackets "{" and "}". The opening bracket "{" substitutes for the Command key, and the 
closing bracket "}" substitutes for the Enter key. 

Upgrade Mountbatten Brailler 

This option performs an upgrade of the connected Mountbatten Brailler. This is a legacy 
feature that works with older Mountbatten Brailler models - the Classic and Whisperer.  
MB Tutor, in production since 2020, can be updated with use of a USB drive. 

Save Display to File        a 

You may save the text displayed by MB-Comm.  All the text viewable in the MB-

Comm window, not just the visible portion, will be saved using the save display function 
from the File menu. 

Clear Display Window        C 

All the text viewable in the MB-Comm window, not just the visible portion, will be 

erased. 

Before erasing, you will be asked to save the display contents as a text file. You 

may answer yes, no, or cancel. If you answer yes, the usual File Save window will pop up 
and prompt a file name. If no, then the screen is immediately erased. Cancel leaves the 
screen as is and waits for the following action. 

Exit       x 

You may exit at any time. If any text is displayed on the screen, you will be asked if 

you wish to save it.
