To configure the MLC’s Off button to issue both a power off and a power off confirmation command,

1.	Ensure that power is applied to the MLC 52.		ON

4.	Put the MLC’s Off button that you have just programmed into macro mode
	by pressing and holding the button for 3 seconds. The orange LED on the
	back panel, labeled “E,” flashes rapidly five times, then turns off, indicating
	that the button is now configured for macro mode.

Now, with one press of the MLC Off button, you can issue the two projector off commands needed to both answer the projector’s confirmation prompt and turn the projector off. The commands are issued in succession at 1.5-second intervals.
