KeyView Requirements. 

You will need: 

  The KeyView program KeyView-Setup.exe. This file is on the KeySoft version 7.5 (or later) 

program CD that comes with your BrailleNote, and is also available as a download from 
www.humanware.com/support/braillenote/software. 

  A PC running Windows ME, 2000, XP or Vista. 
  A way of connecting the BrailleNote to the PC. This can be either: 

  Through the USB client serial link. For this you need the USB cable supplied with your 

BrailleNote, and a USB host port on your PC. 

 or 

  Bluetooth. For this your PC must be Bluetooth enabled. If your PC does not have integrated 

Bluetooth functionality, you will need to use a Bluetooth USB dongle. These are inexpensive 
and can be bought from a local computer store. Check and follow the installation instructions 
that come with the adapter, and install any required software before installing KeyView.  

  Adaptive software for your PC, or sighted assistance as you will need to respond to some 

messages on your PC in order to install KeyView.
