Specifying Hotkeys

You can specify the command key as needed, by entering it within the configuration utility.
For example, you can specify the hotkey for switching to PC 1 as CTRL - ALT - A by typing
an A (not case-sensitive) in the editable field.

Hotkey Sequence = CTRL - ALT - [command key]*

* The command key is user-definable via the configuration dialog box

Please note that if you intend to modify the command key, you have to modify them on each
and every one of the connected computers, since the hotkey setting is stored within each
connected computer.

With the exception of control keys such as Alt, Ctrl, Shift, CAPS, Tab, Esc, all keys on the
keyboard, including number keys on the number pad, are qualified to be used as hotkey
command keys.
