4.2 Editing Codes in a Macro (Fig. 23)
When in the Edit Macro Definition window,
The number of repeats for each command can also be changed. This is equivalent to pushing the command button on the remote control multiple times.

Re-Ordering Macro Codes
After a code is added to a macro, highlighting a code and clicking on the or button will reorder the codes.
Macros (updated)
After editing a macro, the macro list is updated to show the number of IR codes and the display name.
Note that the Macro tab has an additional button at the bottom that says “Update Macros From Library.” If codes were edited in any way in an IR library after a source has been defined in the Source tab, this button will automatically pull those changes into the Macro Definition window.
4.3 Control Macros
An additional option within the Macro tab is the ability to establish multiple control macros. These macros are intended for instant access to control functions and are an optional feature. If a control macro is created, an additional source menu item is also created titled “Control” preceded by the three character “short name” assigned in the Source tab.
Creating a control macro is the same process outlined in 4.1 Creating a Preset Macro String on page 17.
5. Zones (Fig. 24)
Up to 14 zones can be defined with the Essentia. Each zone can be defined with unique properties.
You will notice that the zone tab contains 14 entries for zone Control Pads. A full twelve zone system can accommodate a total of 14 Control Pads by using the slave function in the “Edit Zone Properties” window. A slave Control Pad is homerun to the Allport, but automatically shares the same functions and works in tandem with the main zone Control Pad. Any number of Control Pads can operate on a single zone.
