Switcher Personality
There are a number of settings for how the switcher
will react to different situations, or how switcher
elements appear to the operator. All these settings are
grouped together into the Switcher Personality. These
settings include double-press rates and sleep time,
among others.

You can have a key removed from the Next Transition
area, so that it is not included in the next transition,
after it has been transitioned off-air using the KEY
