REPEATING A SERIES OF KEY PRESSES USING THE MACRO AND MACRO2 KEYS

The a/v Producer has two Macro keys (MACRO and MACRO2) that will play back a series of key strokes at any time with the press of one key. Each sequence can have up to a maximum of 15 keystrokes. These keys are not mode specific and can be accessed in any mode. For example, to set up a sequence that will turn on devices and turn them to the proper inputs:

1

Press and hold SETUP until the dis-

 

play screen changes from [DEVICE

x2 and the TIME] to [TIMED SEQ]. Press MENU – twice until the display reads [CONFIGURE], then press SELECT. The display will then read [THEATR SEL].

2x4 Press MENU – four times until the dis- play reads [KEY MACRO]. Press SELECT. The display will read

[SEL MACKEY]. Press either the MACRO or MACRO2 key. This will be the key that will play back the

 

series of keystrokes assigned to

or

that key. The display will then read

 

[ENTER SEQ]. Begin entering the

 

sequence of keystrokes, up to 15.

NOTE: When setting up your sequence, you will need to include any keystrokes that would normally be required during regular usage, such as pressing ENTER after entering a channel number when changing channels.

For example:

(sequence) TUNER + POWER + TV + POWER + TV/SAT (to change the input on the TV to VIDEO 1) + SAT + POWER.

3

When your macro sequence is con-

 

cluded, press ESC to save.

When the sequence key is pressed, the Tuner will power ON, the TV will power ON and change its input to VIDEO 1, and then the Satellite will power ON.

Repeat these steps 1 to 3 to setup another sequence key (MACRO or MACRO2) for your needs.

HOW TO USE THE SHIFT KEY

The a/v Producer has additional features that can be accessed by using the SHIFT key. They are list- ed above the keys that they are mapped to.

For example, on the transport keys PLAY, REW, FF, STOP, and PAUSE, there are the following fea- tures: SLOW, SLOW+, SLOW –, X2, and EJECT.

If you want to eject a tape from your VCR, press:

SHIFT + STOP

This will eject your tape, as long as your original remote supported this feature.

NOTE: Once you have pressed the SHIFT key, a/v Producer will remain in the "Shift" mode, as indicated by an [S] on the LCD screen, for 5 seconds after the last key press or until the SHIFT key is pressed again.

The following keys have functions that are shifted:

CENTER:

SHIFT + CENTER = REAR

MENU:

SHIFT + MENU = PROGRAM

SELECT:

SHIFT + SELECT = CLEAR

MUTE:

SHIFT + MUTE = SLEEP

PREV CH:

SHIFT + PREV CH = DISPLAY

PIP:

SHIFT + PIP = FREEZE PIP

REW:

SHIFT + REW = SLOW-

PLAY:

SHIFT + PLAY = SLOW

FF:

SHIFT + FF = SLOW +

STOP:

SHIFT + STOP = EJECT

PAUSE:

SHIFT + PAUSE = X2

IMPORTANT: For a more detailed explanation of what function each shifted key performs by device type (e.g., TV, VCR, etc.), please refer to pages 49 through 61.

NOTE: If you make a mistake during the setup of a macro sequence, press ESC to return to the main display screen and begin the setup of your sequence again.
