The A, B, X and Y buttons are available in momentary, 

double-click,  rapid-fire  and  extended  press  forms. 

Note that the extended press is configured using the 

Long Button Time setting and not the Hold time.
The full grid set also includes a facility to recall any 

of the six Profiles. This is in addition to being able to 

select  them  using  the 

Game  On

  keypad  and  display 

and is useful in empowering some users to make their 

own changes as they switch from game to game.
One  of  the  key  advantages  of  using  Grid  3  is  the 

ability to be able to edit grid sets to suit your exact 

needs.  Users  with  limited  cognition  may  benefit 

from having a reduced set of controls, allowing the 

remaining  controls  to  be  laid  out  more  clearly  and 

each of the remaining cells to be larger. If you wish 

to  customise  the  grid  sets  provided,  please  refer 

to Smartbox documentation for full details on how 

to achieve this or follow the QR code at the back of 

these instructions.
Before using the grid set for gaming, you may wish 

to  review  the  current  eye-gaze  settings  to  make 

sure they are optimal. Go to Menu  

  Settings
