Hotkey Operation

Alternate Port Switching Keys

The port switching activation keys can be changed from tapping Scroll Lock key twice ([Scroll Lock] [Scroll Lock]) to tapping Ctrl key twice ([Ctrl] [Ctrl]).

If you have a Mac keyboard (or your keyboard does not have Scroll Lock), you can change the port switching activation keys by doing the following:

1.Invoke Hotkey Mode (see page 22 for PC keyboard and page 23 for Mac keyboard)

2.Press and release T

Now you can tap [Ctrl], [Ctrl] to initiate port switching (see Table on page 20). Please note that any hotkey operations in the manual that use Scroll Lock, will now work with the new [Ctrl][Ctrl] port switching key. Note: This procedure is a toggle between the two methods. To revert back to the original port switching keys, repeat the above procedure.
