The HandyTech BasicBraille displays don't have Perkins input keys, so they don't work with the Common braille commands for VoiceOver.

Instead, HandyTech BasicBraille displays have six buttons, which are named 1 through 6. The buttons can be used to approximate the Common Commands that users have with displays that have Perkins-style input keys, such as Dots 1 through Dots 8, and Space bar.
