Macro Power ON Setup:
Any of the touch screen menu options can be setup as Macro buttons. Follow the instructions below to setup a macro button that will power ON several components at once.
1.On the remote control, press and hold the MAIN and ENT (Enter) buttons at the same time. After about 3 seconds, “SETUP” is displayed in the Menu name area at the top of the LCD touch screen. This is the Setup mode of the remote control.
NOTE: You now have 30 seconds to perform the next step while the remote is in the Setup mode. If a button is not pressed within 30 seconds, the SETUP menu name will revert to MAIN, indicating that the remote control is no longer in Setup mode. If this occurs, you will need to repeat this step to
2.Touch the MACRO option to setup a macro to power ON several components at the same time. The menu name changes to “MACRO” and the bottom of the screen flashes “SELECT”.
3.Touch the ON option. The menu name changes to “ON” and the bottom of the touch screen flashes “STEP 0”, indicating that no macro steps have been entered yet.
4.Touch a component option that you want the macro to turn ON. Use the menu page arrows to navigate to the other menu pages, if required. The menu name changes to the name of the component option that you touched and the bottom of the screen now flashes “STEP 1”.
5.Press the ON button again to confirm the action. The Step Indicator now displays “STEP 2”.
Note: The Step Indicator is a macro step counter. Every button that is pressed will increase the Step Indicator by one. But each macro can store up to 190 steps.
6.Press the MAIN button to return to the Main component listing.
7.Repeat Steps 4 through 6 until all of the components that you want to power ON at once have been added to the macro.
Note: If desired, you can also program delays into the macro between the commands, by pressing the PAUSE () button. Each press adds half a second to the delay.
8.When all of the components have been added to the macro, press the LIGHT button. The menu name changes to “MACRO” as a new screen is displayed with the options: SAVE, UNDO, and EXIT.
9.To save the macro you just entered, touch the SAVE option. The UNDO option allows you to erase the last step. The EXIT option erases all steps for the macro.
10.When finished, exit the Setup mode by pressing the MAIN button until the touch screen displays MAIN in the menu heading area. The remote control is in normal operation mode again.
Note: There is no touch screen menu listing for the macro you just saved. However, when you press the ON button on the remote for one of the included components, MACRO is displayed in the bottom of the touch screen area.
Macro Power OFF Setup:
To create a macro which will turn OFF several components at the same time, just follow the same steps as listed above, but press the OFF button instead of the ON button.
Macro Using Component Button Setup:
To setup a macro to use a component, in Step 2 of the procedure above, after pressing MACRO, press the page button twice. The menu name changes to MAIN. Touch the component option that you want to set as the macro button. You can navigate to page 2 if necessary. Now continue in the procedure to Step 3 and follow the rest of the procedure to completion.
Setting a “Press & Hold” Macro:
Another option for the component button macros is to only send the macro if the component button is held down. The advantage of this option is that a normal press of the component button will simply
