Yes, the ABT-380 uses serial and parallel.  For now, I'm still ok on that one.  It's on an old win XP machine and I can use an old version of jaws.  .  My win 10 machine will need to use my powerbraille 80. Thanks

Is anyone using NVDA with an older Braille Display?  I have a couple of powerBrailles (a 40 and an 80) and an ALVA ABT-380.  It seems that some of you might be using BrlTTY to drive your displays?  I wonder if I could get some help getting started with this kind of a setup?  I'm thinking of getting a peripheral card with a parallel port on it or getting a USB to RS-232 converter and wonder if anyone has experienced this kind of project?

 

Thanks, anybody.
