There is a hotbar section, and just past halfway down you see commands for /hotbar and /crosshotbar that may give you a means to change them. Something like the old SMN macros in XI where you have a macro that summons an avatar and then flipped you to a book/macro bank for that avatar--the trick was you needed to root some macro slots into navigation within each bank like a return to the main "menu" book/bank and such.
/crosshotbar change 1
switch to crosshotbar 1

In the config you can also choose which crossbars are switchable with R1 while the weapon is sheathed or unsheathed. So you can choose some crossbars as your battle crossbars.
