Tim,
I started most of the recent threads about the Braille Lite. I have a
Braille Lite 40. What sorts of problems are you having with your M20?
Maybe BRLTTY can be told that it's a BLT18, and then it will work fine.
To use it with a computer, all you have to do is turn speech box mode,
or whatever it is called now, on. That should set the serial port and
anything else to what is needed.
