Select to define how you want to apply the shortcut:

Categories

Select a command category and then select one of the associated commands. If you want all your views listed to allow you to create keyboard shortcuts for individual views, select the Views.All category.

Some commands only work when the keyboard shortcut is used in certain contexts. For example, a keyboard shortcut with a PTZ-related command will only work when using a PTZ camera.

If relevant, specify a parameter for the command or action. For example, if you want to specify the window and view position for the Copy the selected camera view item parameter, enter 2;1 to have the camera copied to the floating window (window 2), in the first view position (view position 1).
