I'm going to need some additional information in order to help you:
1) What pedal keys do you set on the pedal actions screen and what actions are they assigned to? You mentioned start or stop scrolling, but I just want to verify one of the pedal actions is set to "Start or stop automatic scrolling".
2) What type of pedal are you using and what mode is it currently set to? This mainly applies to AirTurn pedals where the different modes send different keys.
3) If you go to Settings->About, what version of MobileSheets are you currently running? I want to verify that you have the latest update which is version 3.5.3.

Do you have 'select display mode' set to 'vertical scroll'? Select display is the 4th from the bottom left in edit mode.

Am I asking for the impossible? Sheet music with sections that are repeated would be easy to cope with if the foot switch could simply stop or start the scrolling. If it is possible please tell me how. Thank you.

Unfortunately, the Cuvave pedal does not seem to function like most other bluetooth pedals. Most bluetooth pedals work like a computer keyboard - you press the pedal, and it's the same thing as pressing the "page down" key on a computer keyboard. For this reason, MobileSheets just monitors key press notifications and doesn't actually communicate with the pedal directly at all. In fact, if you plug in a computer keyboard, you will see that you can drive the pedal actions using it. The Cube Turner pedal does not function like this though and seems to do some truly bizarre things. If you load a song and press the right pedal, it may turn the page - some users have reported that (although one said it worked differently in landscape orientation vs portrait). The other pedal will not work though, and you also cannot assign pedal keys in the pedal actions screen. The fact that it turns the page does not mean it's actually working correctly - it seems to be generating touch events on the screen or doing something strange like that in order to cause the page to turn.
If you are unable to contact Cuvave for support, I would recommend returning the pedal and switching to one of the better brands like PageFlip or AirTurn. Almost every user that has tried the Cuvave pedal and contacted me has eventually returned the pedal and switched to another brand.
