switching commands
All users may utilize a short keyboard sequence to switch between channels.
A "Hotkey" sequence places your system in Command Mode. While in
Command Mode, whatever you type will be interpreted as system commands
until the Enter or the Escape key is pressed to end Command Mode, and will
not be forwarded to the attached computer.
Next, enter the address (Addr) for the channel you wish to select. A Channel
address is represented by a letter located on the front panel of the unit under
that channel's LED(s).
Press enter to accept the new channel. The following command line illustrates
the proper format used to switch your active channel with the keyboard.
