BrailleSense 6 – Unable to exit Terminal mode

BrailleSense 6 – Unable to exit Terminal mode

Problem

A customer having engaged Terminal for Screen reader mode is unable to exit using space-Z Braille chord. 


Applies to

  1. BrailleSense 6 series
  2. Polaris series


Resolution

The Terminal for screen reader allows the BrailleSense or Polaris notetaker to act as a Braille display for a screen reader once properly connected over USB or Bluetooth, however if there is a problem with the connection one maybe become stuck in Terminal mode when space-Z chord fails to exit this mode.

Use Braille chord SPACE-BACKSPACE-Z (dots 1-3-5-6) chord instead to exit Terminal for Screen reader mode.
