Support for braille displays
You can use a Bluetooth braille display to read VoiceOver output, and you can use a braille display with input keys and other controls to control iPod touch when VoiceOver is turned on.
For a list of supported braille displays, see www.apple.com/accessibility/ios/braille-display.html
.
Connect a braille display. Turn on the display, then go to Settings > General > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth. Then go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Braille and choose the display.
Adjust Braille settings. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Braille, where you can:

For information about common braille commands for VoiceOver navigation and information specific to certain displays, see support.apple.com/kb/HT4400 .
The braille display uses the language that’s set for Voice Control.This is normally the language set for iPod touch in Settings > International > Language. You can use the VoiceOver language setting to set a different language for VoiceOver and braille displays.
Set the language for VoiceOver. Go to Settings > General > International > Voice Control.
If you change the language for iPod touch, you may need to reset the language for VoiceOver and your braille display.
You can set the leftmost or rightmost cell of your braille display to provide system status and other information. For example:
