Setting up Touchscreen Scanning
There are times when a user is not capable of activating specific areas on the screen. For example,
maybe the user does not have the pointing skills to press one button. Using the touchscreen to scan
allows the user to tap anywhere on the screen to initiate a scan of the buttons. In this scenario, the
device screen acts as a single switch.

Setting up Auto Scanning
You can choose to have scanning activate automatically, or you can choose to either hold the switch or

is turned off, a switch activation is required to move the scan through each button, one at a time.
To set scanning to activate without holding a switch, choose
