Macros

A very convenient and powerful feature built into the KNEKT RCU is the ability to record a sequence of commands and replay them at a later time. This is known as a macro. For example, you could record a command sequence to select the radio, choose your favourite radio station, and set the volume to 20. You can record up to five different macros, each one containing up to ten commands, for your most frequently-used operations.

To access macro mode:

Press the WHERE and ON/OFF keys together so that the display shows ‘Macro’. Alternatively, you may have chosen to have Macro mode directly available from the WHERE key, in which case you can select it by pressing WHERE (this is a programming option – consult your Linn Custom Installer).

Select the number of the macro you want to use by pressing WHAT.

You can have up to five macros, called Macro1 to Macro5.

Press DO to step between the four macro functions:

Replay -

Replay a macro you recorded.

 

 

Record -

Record a new macro.

 

 

Key - ->

Set up a macro so you can run it from a key.

 

 

Erase -

Remove a macro.
