2.10 Testing the Braille display
There may be times you wish to exercise your Braille display for maitneance, or to
check to be sure all pins and keys are functioning correctly.
You can enter Test Mode by pressing Backspace-Space-Enter-T (dots-2-3-4-5). The
Braille EDGE immediately begins raising and lowering each Braille pin individually at
the rate of 1 per second, starting with dot 1 of cell 1, and ending with dot 8 of cell 40.
You can pause and resume the test with Space. When paused, you can press the
cursor router above each cell to raise all the pins in that cell. You can also press any
key on the unit, and its function is displayed in Braille.
When you have finished using Test Mode, press Space-Z (dots-1-3-5-6) to close it.
