Hi Donna,

 

OK, I assume you are pairing through the normal Bluetooth pairing of iOS 6.  
Don’t do that.  Instead do this.

 

First go to Settings, General, Accessibility, Voiceover, Braille.

 

You should find a button called Select Braille display.  Before you hit that, 
turn on the Esys, and select Bluetooth from the main menu.

 

Now don’t touch the Esys yet.  Select the Select Braille device button, and 
your phone should start searching for a device.  Hopefully it will now find the 
Esys.

 

Select it if it does, then read the screen.  The iPhone should tell you it is 
paired successfully.

 

Finally, you may need to hit the connect button.

 

Give me a ring tomorrow if you are still having problems.

 

All the best


Steve

Subject: [access-uk] Sorry help please connecting iPhone to esys12 braille 
display

 

Sorry for the previous blank message.

 

Please could someone help. I am trying to connect my Esys12 to my iPhone 
running ios6. I went into settings and turned bluetooth on. I then turned on 
the Esys display and went to the bluetooth menu and enabled bluetooth. A very 
brief message came up on the Braille display saying connecting and then 
immediately disconnected, whilst on the iPhone I continually got the message 
searching for device, and although I waited some time, no devices seemed to be 
discoverable. 

No doubt I am doing something wrong or missing out a step, but I really can’t 
work out what I should be doing. So, if anyone could help me, it would be much 
appreciated.

Many thanks in advance. 

Donna
