When using a Mac, you may find that the Mac's Function (F) keys do not work in Premiere. There is an option in the Mac OS to enable this ability with Cree8 workstations.

Mapping Function Keys
You can enable Function keys on the Cree8 Client for macOS by going to:

Apple>System Preferences>Keyboard> and selecting the

"Use F1,F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" setting. The F keys will now work in your Cree8 workstation.

With this setting not enabled, the function keys are used for local Mac system features such as turning the volume up and down. When this option is selected, you may switch back and forth enabling the F keys local use by pressing the Mac's "Fn" key.
