Hello, In addition to my previous e-mail, you will find the log file here-attached. I have modified the brltty.conf file as advised by Samuel (release-device off). In debug mode, a display is shown and stable (previously it was blinking - probably due to multiple release) It indicates : "no attachable console". For BrlAPI, there is no change: the service is started and running but nothing is visible. It looks idle. Your advices are welcome.

Objet : Re: [BRLTTY] Use BRLTTY under Windows 7 with Virtual Braille device
Hello, Many thanks to Samuel and Dave for their answers. About the admin rights, I noticed that BRLTTY in debug mode is writing a log file in C:/Program Files/BRLTTY. That is the reason why it does not work properly under W7 without admin rights. Regarding BrlAPI, the service is properly launched and run under W7 but nothing happens (no window, nothing, it looks idle). I don't know what commands/parameters are necessary to make it working and interacting with Chatty Infty application. Thanks for your help.
