Thanks Kirk, What I haven't managed to figure out with the braille lite so far is how you would connect it to the serial port if you're not running a terminal emulator, i.e. how do you configure it to pass keyboard input to the serial port, and serial input to the display. I know this is fairly basic, and must be possible for people who are using modems, but I can't find anything about it in the manuals. Regard, Tim
