The driver compiled for Arm64 might work. How long it takes to produce will presumably depend on how much architecture-specific code they have, if any.

Hello everyone, Frank your suggestion would work you this machine or not and arm machine. The USB drivers available on the manufacturer only work under Intel base hardware. If one's Mac is an M series, all bets are off. In fact the tech-support people can't use their surface machines with the braille since six. They've asked their developer to work on this. The note above is, constitute my personal thoughts on this. The signature below is because I'm working on a lot of things related to my upcoming trip so the signature is my official one. Maurice A.

On a Windows machine (real or virtual) you can install the USB driver from the manufacturer;s web site. Connect the BS6 to the computer via a USB cable and in the braille terminal select USB. Assuming Fusion has not dropped support for USB devices it should work fine.

And I am only planning on taking one braille display with me. I know that many on this this use being more fusion, but after doing some research it appears they have recently dropped all Bluetooth support. So unfortunately unless something is radically different I don't think I can use being more fusion with the rail display I'm planning on taking. On the other hand, Parallels desktop for mac does have Bluetooth support. But here's the interesting twist, the braille display I'm planning on using is seeing in the virtual machine. I can only connect to it if I use a pin code. Sadly the braille display does not allow for the entry of the pin code on the device meaning the braille display. The device I think it's gonna be very difficult to accommodate. It's the braille since six. Can I get to my Mac MacBook Pro M2, running macOS sequoia no problem! Works great! But if I need anything from Windows 11 Pro, and if I need to read it and set up attempting to hear it, appears to be a big no go. Does anyone on the list have any suggestions? Just so that everyone knows I have talked to the tech-support people in Austin. They suggested that I might reach out to the list. I've done a little tiny bit of work with parallels but they said this was a couple of years ago. The company and I thought I could use USB, to do this. But the USB drivers are unfortunately meant for Intel hardware. Hence they are useless on an arm machine. I hope this email clearly explains my dilemma? Please note that I'm including my signature below only because I'm working on a lot of things and this email is coming from my official email address.
