My Calibrite Display Pro arrived this week and I have attempted calibration of my BenQ SW monitor. Although I went through the user guides for the screen and software they seem insufficient for a novice like me. However, I found a very good brand specific guide (which also has a video version) at Image Science. Here is a link in case anyone alse is interested:

They have several other resources too.
My screen is a BenQ SW270C and it came with a second generation Puck with several hotkeys. Three of them are numbered keys that have default settings which (so far as I know) I have not changed:
#1 - Adobe RGB
#2 - sRGB
#3 - Black & White
The defaults seemed logical and useful for me as I will not use Profoto or do any video editing.
My calibration results for Adobe RGB were saved but when I pressed Hotkey #1 my screen changed to some other settings which it implemented. I had to calibrate the monitor again to obtain calibrated settings.
At present therefore, my only use for the Puck is its pressable rotating dial that provides a more convenient means of accessing the on screen menu than using the buttons on the front of the monitor.
So my questions are
1. Is there a way to implement a saved calibration rather than recalibrating from scratch?
2. What are the 3 hotkeys for if they don't provide a shortcut to my own calibration results/settings?
