Mouse button switching modes

You can use a three button mouse to switch between systems. However, when used in this way, the action of the middle mouse button or scroll wheel click is ‘trapped’ by the Adder TS4 and is not passed to the system. This makes it unavailable for use in controlling applications on the selected system. The scroll wheel scrolling action is unaffected and passed on normally to the systems, only the scroll wheel click is used by the Adder TS4.

To use the mouse buttons to change systems, use options U1 (default) or U4.

To use the scroll wheel click/third mouse button with the systems, use options U3 or U5.

To report only a simple 2-button mouse to the systems, use option U2.
