Hi Graham,

You mean you are not getting any Braille out at all?  Do you have an
integrated Braille display, or one of the Focus ones?  If the integrated
one, make sure it is fully pushed home or connected.  Other than that, I am
not sure.  Have you tried a warm reset?  Control-Alt-Delete?  Or in the BX
case, I believe it is all six dots with space bar.

All the best

Hi Steve!

So what could be causing the Braille display to be blank during normal
operation then?  Cheers!

Hi Graham,

As Ian said, I don't think you can turn Braille off at all.  As for Grade 2,
go to Settings, which I think on the BX, is SH chord S, enter on Braille
settings, and the first option is Grade 2 Checked.  Uncheck this and you
turn it off.  Not a toggle, but you can do it.  Note though that this only
applies to untranslated files.  Obviously, if you have a Grade 2 ready file,
you can't turn off Grade 2, you would have to back translate it.

All the best
