# Quick Access

*Quick Access* feature simplifies Macula Monitor control via CCTV keyboard or standard keyboard by adding a custom ID to dedicated resources. By creating *Quick Access* IDs, it is possible to assign numerical or any other custom values to frequently used resources or items.

Currently, it is possible to set *Quick access* ID for resources such as:

* Video channels
* Data Channels
* Maps
* Buttons
* Web pages
* Shared layouts

#### Adding Resources:

To add any resource to *Quick Access*, go to:

* *Configuration → Quick access → New quick access item*
* Select the existing resource
* Provide an ID of your own choice
* Press the *OK* button

After that, you can reach assigned resources in the Macula Monitor in the *Quick popup* window.

#### Using Quick Access items in Macula Monitor:

After creating a *Quick Access ID* for the resource or item, you can call for it in the Macula Monitor. To popup resource, change layout, or trigger button – launch the *Quick popup* window (\[ctrl+f] using a standard keyboard or dedicated search button on your CCTV keyboard), write a particular ID in the search field, and confirm your input.
