To establish a Bluetooth connection between the Focus and an Android device, such as the Nexus 4 or Nexus 7, do the following:
Once the Focus has been paired, if you power on the display before taking the Android device out of standby, the display will automatically connect. Remember to lock the device before turning off the Focus to ensure that braille auto detection works properly the next time you want to use braille.
