16.10 The BrailleSense Menus are Not Displayed or
Spoken
At times, you may receive a prompt to set the default launcher between Google
Now and the BrailleSense Launcher. If it is accidentally set to use the Google
Now Launcher, the BrailleSense menus are not displayed, and accessibility
features are not activated. In this case, System notifications may still be heard,
but no Braille will appear, and no speech is heard.
To reset the BrailleSense Launcher, press “F2-F3-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8”.
16.11 The BrailleSense 6 Does Not Respond
1. If the BrailleSense 6 does not respond to keystrokes or commands, it may be
necessary to reset the unit. To reset the BrailleSense 6, press "1-2-3-4-5-6-F2-
F3."
2) If the soft reset does not revive the BrailleSense 6, you may need to
completely shut down the unit. The easiest way to do this is to remove the
battery, leave it out for a few seconds, re-insert it, and power on the unit.
3) Initializing BrailleSense Options: if you are not able to solve your problem with
the above methods, you may need to reset your BrailleSense options back to
factory defaults. You can do this in two ways: if your unit is operational, you can
launch the “Initialize BrailleSense options” item in the “Settings” menu. You may
also hold the Forward Media key while pressing the Power On Button. Continue
to hold Forward until “HIMS” is displayed on the braille display.
