Using C4630 SE Internal Macros with K1/K2 Programmable Keypads

Unlike the C4630 SE Main and Numeric Keypads, the K1 and K2 keypads can store and execute their own macros in addition to triggering macros stored in the C4630 SE. Since the C4630 SE will only output one set of IR commands at a time, you must use time delays to ensure that only one set of macro commands executes at a time. For example, if a K2’s keypad macro includes a command that triggers a C4630 SE internal macro, once the K2 sends the command to execute the C4630 SE macro, the C4630 SE will issue its own macro from start to finish and will not pass any of the K2’s IR macro commands until it is finished.

To assure that there is no conflict between keypad and C4630 SE macros Sonance recommends building all macros in the C4630 SE and using the keypad only as a trigger device. If you must combine C4630 SE macros with K1/K2 keypad macros, you can minimize the chances of conflicts by:

•Grouping all C4630 SE internal macro commands together and grouping all K1/K2 keypad macro commands together.

•Having the keypad trigger the C4630 SE’s internal macro last.

•Delaying the start of the K1/K2 macro long enough to ensure that the C4630 SE internal macro completes executing before the keypad macro begins.

C4630 SE EXTRA COMMAND Macros

In addition to the macros that can be

 

triggered by the C4630 SE Main and

 

Numeric keypad buttons, the C4630 SE can

 

also execute up to 200 additional macros per

 

zone. These macros are stored on the EXTRA

 

COMMANDS action layer of each zone’s Zone

 

Programming Screen (see Figure 69).

 

The Extra Command macros cannot be triggered

 

by the C4630 SE Main and Numeric keypads —

 

they are designed to be triggered by the K1

Extra

and K2 programmable keypads, or by a
