  1. Click Navigation Menu > Live Assist > Buses.
    Tip: The user select buttons can be assigned to select any bus on the switcher. If you change what the button is assigned to you should make sure to change the text on the button cap.
    Tip: If you want to select the MultiScreen bus directly, you must re-assign one of the user buttons to MultiScreen.
