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.
