Moving from one side of Settings to the other, using only a braille display on the iPad?

Braille on Apple Products

Hello,
I have an 11-inch M1 iPad pro, which is running the latest developer beta of iPadOS16.
I have my iPad paired with my Focus 40 5th generation Braille display, & would like to know if there's a way to set it up, so I can move from the left side of the screen, where the categories are, to the right side, which is where the items themselves are located.
Is there an easy way to accomplish said task?
I hope my question makes sense.

thanks in advance for any information you wonderful people can provide.n

I use iPad 9 gen with an apple smart keyboard. It is had to move around. When I hear vertical run I use arro up to reduce the screen to zero. that is the only way to move. Do not know if you can do so with BRL. Good luck.

I think you can do this by moving by containers.

I don't remember if there's a default command for this, but you can assign one by going to settings>accessibility>VoiceOver>commands>Braille display. Then choose interaction and look for next and previous container. Then you can assign commands to move by them, maybe something like space with dots 2-6 to go forward and space with dots 3-5 to go back.

I think you can do the same thing with a QWERTY keyboard with control+left and right arrow.
