Special Advanced Features

Programming Automated Activities

The URC-A6 has six Macro buttons (POWER, SYSTEM OFF, A, B, C, D) that are designed to store up to 20 commands in each button. Pressing any one of the Macro buttons, or Automated activity, will send out the series of commands that are stored in that particular button.

MacroPower™ Total System On/Off

MacroPower makes several devices work together by pressing one button. Imagine the convenience of turning on your TV, your DVD player and your Surround Sound receiver by pressing a single button on your URC-A6. What could normally take three remotes and three button pushes, the URC-A6 can accomplish with the press of one button. We call that MacroPower. Any of the Power On or the System Off buttons can be programmed for MacroPower control. To set it up, follow these easy steps:

STEP 1: To program MacroPower commands for the Power ON button, press the POWER button and the MUTE button at the same time for 2 seconds until one of the component button LED lights turns on.
