Dave: I am not using B9 and B0 for dots 7-8; I am using these both as the space bar which seems to be the common practice with this display. Knowing that you implemented supporting using the Braille Connect 12 explains a lot, since I get dot bits corresponding to would I would expect to be dots 7-8 for B9 and B0.
The Braille Connect 24 does have specific keys for dots 7 and 8; these are called b7 and b8. It also has the B9 and B0 keys that the Braille Connect 12 has, and these keys function as they do on the Braille Connect 12. I would be glad to help you determine what codes are sent for the specific dot 7 and 8 keys on the Connect 24, but I need pretty specific instructions!

The manual says that B9 is to the left of the joystick and that B0 is to the right of the joystick. Note that we implemented support for the braille keyboard with a BrailleConnect 12, which doesn't have dots 7 and 8. Does the BrailleConnect 24 actually have keys for dots 7 and 8? If so, would you mind helping us figure out which codes they send so that we can properly support them? -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | I believe that the Bible is the Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | Word of God.
