Programming the Direct Macro function

With the direct macro function, you can program a series of button operations as a macro into the DIRECT MACRO button so the macro can be executed with just one touch. Note that for the direct macro function, only one macro can be programmed. For example, to program the macro described on the previous page for the DIRECT MACRO button, perform the steps given below.

1.Press and hold down any one of the eight MODE buttons, press the DIRECT MACRO button, and then release both buttons.

When you press the MODE button, it lights green and the SEND/LEARN indicator lights. When you press the DIRECT MACRO button, the indicator turns off. When you release the buttons, the indicator flashes briefly and then lights again.

2.Press the operation buttons you wish to program in order (in this case, press RCVR MODE ON CD (INPUT SELECTOR) CD MODE playback () button).

When you press each button, the SEND/LEARN indicator turns off. When you release the button, the indicator lights.

3.Press the DIRECT MACRO button to complete the procedure.

The SEND/LEARN indicator flashes twice slowly.

4.Check to see if the macro has been properly programmed.

Notes:

Tips:

If you erase or change the command of a button programmed in the direct macro, that operation of that button will no longer work in the macro. In this case, it will be necessary for you to reprogram the direct macro in order to avoid incorrect operation.

The codes programmed into a direct macro will be transmitted at an interval of 0.5 seconds. However, some devices may not be able to complete one operation in 0.5 seconds and may miss the next code. In this case, after pressing one operation button, you can press the same MODE button again before pressing the next operation button to add another 0.5 seconds between the two operations.

You may program up to 16 button operations into the direct macro function. If you try to program a 17th operation, it will be ignored, and programming is stopped.

If no button is pressed for more than 30 seconds during the programming, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly, and the remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 1.

If you perform an invalid operation during programming, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly, and the remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 1.

Running a Direct Macro function

Perform the procedure below to run a direct macro function that you have programmed into the remote controller. After programming a direct macro, you should always run it at least once to make sure that it has been programmed properly.

Point the remote controller at the TX-DS898 and press the DIRECT MACRO button.

It may take a while for the macro to finish transmitting, so be sure to continue pointing the remote controller at the device until the SEND/ LEARN indicator turns off.
