Subject: Focus40Blue Firmware update 4.57

 

Downloadable Focus 40 Blue Update

 

This firmware update for the Focus 40 Blue addresses an issue which arose
after a recent release of Apple's OSX operating system that affects Braille
output

from an Apple computer over USB. 

 

How to Download and Install the Update

 

Note: Windows is required to update the firmware. The updater will not work
on Mac.

 

1. Download the FS Braille Display Firmware Update application to a
Microsoft Windows computer using the following link: 

 

ftp://ftp.freedomscientific.com/users/hj/private/WebFiles/Focus40Blue/FS-Bra
ille-Display-Firmware-Update-457.exe

 

2. When the File Download dialog box opens, choose Save. When the Save As
dialog box opens, save the FS Braille Display Firmware Update 457.exe file
on

the Desktop, which is the Windows default. 

 

3. Launch the firmware updater application FS Braille Display Firmware
Update 457.exe to update the firmware in your display to version 4.57.

 

4. A dialog box opens displaying the current firmware version of the Focus
40 Blue. Choose Update Firmware to proceed with the firmware update, or
choose

Exit to close the application without performing the update. 

 

5. After choosing the Update Firmware button, the application will warn you
to not unplug the Braille display during the update. When you are ready,
choose

Start Download to begin updating the firmware. You will receive the message
"Download Done" when the update is complete. 

 

6. If you are using JAWS or another screen reader, close and restart the
software before using your Focus 40 Blue. 

 

Note: If a failure occurs during the update process, do not disconnect the
display from the computer. Close the updater application, then relaunch it
and

start the update again.
