It should work with the serial number. There are two possibilities. One is that you're using the wrong syntax, and the other is that you're using the wrong serial number. If the serial number were 1234, then the shorthand syntax would be usb:1234 and the full syntax would be usb:serialnumber=1234. Your system log (probably /var/log/messages) should show you what the serial number of your device, as presented by its USB interface, is. This information is logged just after the device is connected, and should look something like this: usb 1-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=2, Product=3, SerialNumber=4 usb 1-2: Product: ONE_TOUCH_6012A usb 1-2: Manufacturer: TCT usb 1-2: SerialNumber: SO5SCAY5QWPB6DTO You can also see this information in brltty's log if you use -lusb. >My Braille Edge has a switch to switch between bluetooth and usb.

I did try >usb:,bluetooth: followed by the bluetooth address but this doesn't work, maybe >because I am mixing types instead of just devices? That should work. Just be sure that there are no spaces. If it really isn't working then please post a debug log of the problem. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God.
