Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Bobby,

The keypad button which you have referred to is the Switcher button. When displaying a page having more than one pane, the Switcher button is used to designate which pane is in focus. A long hold of the Switcher button will cause the pane which is in focus to go to fully occupy the screen ... or if already fully occupying the screen, will cause all of the pages panes to once more come into view.

RayControl is indeed compatible with the iPads. RayRemote should not be used with iPads. As has been indicated within other threads in which I have addressed RayRemote, while it may be operated on an iPhone or Android smartphone, it would typically be used when viewing a MFD's screen which was being repeated on a TV / monitor ... in much that same way that you TV's remote is used to control your TV, where all actions from the remote are expected to be viewed on the TV / monitor.
