Item scanning
Item scanning alternately highlights each item or group of items on the entire screen until
you trigger your Select Item switch. If there are many items, Switch Control highlights them in
groups. When you select a group, highlighting continues with the items in the group. When you
select a unique item, scanning stops and the control menu appears. Item scanning is the default
when you rst turn on Switch Control.
You can choose from three scanning styles—auto scanning, manual scanning, and single switch
step scanning. Auto scanning automatically highlights items, one after the other. With manual
scanning you use one switch to highlight an item and another to activate it. Single switch step
scanning uses a switch to move the highlight from item to item. If you take no action after a
period of time, the highlighted item activates.
