Switching between step and selection switches while scanning

Switching between step and selection switches during scanning can be useful for example, if a user has difficulty scanning using head movements. The user starts stepping with switch 1, selects a row/column/group with switch 2 and can then step again with the same switch 2. He or she can then select using switch 1, etc.
