Hi ok the following is from the help system should explain all that you
might want to know on this subject. 
Using the Synthesizer and Braille Manager
Using the Synthesizer and Braille Manager

The Synthesizer and Braille Manager allows you to add, modify, or remove
synthesizer and Braille display drivers. Adding synthesizers or Braille
displays
makes them available from the JAWS user interface. Modifications can include
changing the default synthesizer or Braille display and changing the output
port, if applicable. Removing the devices will only remove them from the
JAWS user interface. The device files will remain on the computer until JAWS
is
uninstalled.

To start the Synthesizer and Braille Manager, open the Utilities menu and
choose Synthesizer and Braille Manager. Alternatively, you can choose
Synthesizer
and Braille Manager from the Tools menu in the JAWS Start menu program
group. When you start this utility, a tree view of all synthesizer and
Braille display
drivers installed on your computer displays. To add, change, or delete
devices, do the following:
list of 7 items
1. Choose the Add, Remove, or Change Devices button. 
2. If you want to select synthesizers, select the Speech Synthesizers radio
button. If you want to select Braille displays, select the Braille Displays
radio button. 
3. Choose the Next button. 
4. A list of available devices displays. To add or remove a device, use the
arrow keys to select it in the list and then press the SPACEBAR to select or
clear the check box. After you have selected all devices that you want to
use, choose the Next button. 
5. If you are selecting synthesizers, you are asked to choose a default
synthesizer that JAWS will use each time you start the program. If you are
selecting
Braille displays, you are asked to choose a default Braille display. After
you have made a selection, choose the Next button. 
6. If you are modifying Braille displays, you are asked to specify your
device settings. 
7. Choose Finish to complete the process. The Braille displays and
synthesizers that you selected are now installed.
