Running a Macro
Macros can be run in one of three ways:
1.Multiple Macros - During programming, an individual macro key can have multiple macros assigned to it. Each macro is identified using a unique number between 1 - 9999. The required macro is run by entering a number from the alphanumeric keypad (1 to 9999), and then pressing the soft key associated with the macro's icon.
2.Simple Macro - This type of macro assigns one function to a specific macro soft key. To run the macro, navigate to the macro's icon and page and press the soft key associated with the macro.
3.Variable Macro - This type of macro uses the numeric entry from the keypad as a variable during the macro's execution. For example, the macro may have been programmed such that when the operator enters a number, the number is used to call that camera to a monitor specified in the macro's program. This type of macro enables an operator to greatly reduce the number of keystrokes required to call a camera to a monitor, while also unburdening the operator from having to remember the number of the monitor that has to be addressed. This application is for operators who consistently utilize certain monitors at their workstations.
To run the macro, enter a number using the alphanumeric keys (this is the variable), and press the soft key associated with the macro.
