Hi,
But before that can be done, Louis needs to install the USB driver,
otherwise, Apex will be recognized as a Windows Mobile device. I think it
might be better to use a Bluetooth dongle (I use that setup myself on a
Windows 8.1 desktop; these days I'm using it to write BrailleNote driver for
NVDA that supports BrailleNote QT).
Cheers,
Joseph

Get a mini USB cord and plug one end into your computer and one end into the
small USB port on the right side of your apex near the charging port.

other ways which will bring the output in braille on my Apex? This must be a
very hard procedure I think? Cheers!
