OR Qwerty - Target Software vB1.01.00.00r25
Date: 17th October 2024

1. New Features/Changes
 	The following is a list of new features/changes that are available in this release:

	1.	We have fixed a serious issue preventing users from connecting to various screen readers and devices via Bluetooth. Customers that are experiencing this issue are kindly asked to contact our Technical support team to get it resolved after installing this new release.
	2.	We have improved the switching between connections in remote mode, allowing you to switch between Bluetooth and USB connections without first going to local mode. The upper left panning key + cursor routing keys 1 through 6 are used to switch between connections. Cursor routing keys 1 through 5 switches between the 5 available Bluetooth channels, while cursor routing key 6 always switches to USB mode using the HID-Orbit protocol.
	3.	We have added thumb key configuration for various functions in the internal applications to make it easier and more convenient to operate. You can now choose the following options for each thumb key: Pan backward, pan forward, next line, and previous line. You can assign every option to each thumb key as you deserve.
	4.	Fixed an issue that prevented typing with Perkins key emulation when a language other than English was selected.
	5.	Fixed an issue which prevented thumb keys to function correctly in diagnostic mode.

2. Known Issues/Limitations
 	The following is a list of known issues/limitations with the current software of the Orbit Reader Q40/Q20:

	1.	Support for the JAWS for Windows screen reader is still in development. We are working closely with Vispero to make this happen and hope to release updated JAWS drivers by the end of November 2024.
	2.	For the Q40, NVDA compatibility for the HID-Orbit protocol will be available as soon as NVDA incorporates these changes into their next incremental release.
