[jawsscripts] using the braille keys

Hello,
I try to use the braille keys on the braille display to input script by
the user into a self-written application.
This might be done by writing a script for every of the 64 key
combinations (using only 6 dots), and let the script pass the key through
by a call to TypeKey().
I'd like to know if there is a simpler way. Can the Function
KeyPressedEvent() be used? Many of the key-combinations are attached to
scripts in default.jkm, which affect several mode settings. The call of
these scripts should be suppressed.
What is the best way to enter the pressed key-combinations into the
application? Preferably the application should get the dot pattern which
was pressed on the braille keys. The function
BrailleSupportsTypeKeysMode() says that the type-keys-mode is not
supported.
The app is written in C++ with Visual Studio 2005 and the braille-display
is Handy Tech Braillestar 40.
I would appreciate any hint or help on this.
