Users of the scname can take advantage of a range of keyboard shortcuts,
some of which let the users toggle between viewing different cameras.
Such shortcuts include numbers, which are used to identify each camera.
Each camera's shortcut number is specified in the Cam Number field.
A camera shortcut number must not contain any letters or special
characters, and must be no longer than eight digits. Examples of correct
camera shortcut numbers: 3, 12345678. Examples of incorrect camera
shortcut numbers: A*3, 123456789.
It is highly recommended that you use a unique camera shortcut number
for each camera.
Note: Camera shortcut numbers are only used in the scname. In other
applications, such as the NetGuard, the camera shortcuts cannot be used.
Tip: More information about using keyboard shortcuts in the scname is
available in Using Standard Keyboard Shortcuts.
