Macro Key Programming & Usage
About Macro Keys
The “A”, “B”, “C” or “D” keys can be used to automatically activate a series of commands of up to 16 keystrokes, if programmed for this function. These keystrokes, as a group, are called “macros” and are stored in the system's memory.
•Typical macro functions can include:
-Arming sequences: STAY,
-Bypassing particular zone(s)
-Activating relay(s) for turning on (or off) lights, fans, etc.
•Up to four macros can be assigned – but no more than one macro to a key.
•Macros can be activated only by users with authority levels authorized to perform the macro’s function.
NOTE: The installer must activate the desired function key (using *57 Function key Menu Mode) before macros can be assigned.
See the chart at the back of this manual for the key(s) assigned for macros.

3.If a macro has been previously defined, the keystrokes are shown on the bottom line of the display; otherwise the display is blank.
To exit this mode (and keep the existing macro definition), press any key except the [∗] key. The system returns to normal mode.
To define a macro for the selected key, press [∗] and continue with the next prompt.
Enter the first of the series of desired commands, (do not include your master code), then press/hold the “D” key for at least two seconds to complete the first command. This key terminates each command, and appears as an “F” in the keypad display.
