The hotkeys are A and P for Auto Scanning and the Arrow Keys for Skip Mode.
Note: 1. The toolbar must be visible for hotkey operations to work.

Auto Scanning
The Scan function switches at regular intervals among all ports accessible to the currently logged on user to automatically monitor activity. Users can also limit the number of ports scanned with the Filter function of the Sidebar. See “Scan” on page 40, and “Filter” on page 40, for more details.
•Setting the Scan Interval: The amount of time Auto Scan dwells on each port is set with the Scan Duration setting (page 51).
•Invoking Auto Scan: With the toolbar open, tap the A key. Auto Scan cycles through the ports in order, starting at the first port on the installation. An S appears in front of the Port ID Display to indicate that the port is being accessed under Auto Scan Mode.
