Each source defined in the “Source” step has a separate Control Pad definition. The “Source to View” pull-down menu provides the display name given to each source. Using the “Next” and “Back” buttons will automatically cycle through all defined sources.

An important feature of the NuVoNet Suite is the communication with each Control Pad within the installation, which eliminates the need for Macro Definitions. However, if you do want to create specific strings of IR commands or use the IR libraries of third-party source equipment to setup functions within that source's Menu on the Control Pads, this is the place to do that.

If the component had default keys defined in the IR Library, single IR code macros will be automatically created for each key. Hovering the mouse over each key in the Display Pad picture on the left side of the screen will bring up a tool-tip displaying the name of the macro assigned to that key. Clicking on the key highlights the macro on the right side of the screen.

Double-clicking on a key in either display will begin editing the macro associated with that key.

4.1 Edit Macro Definition

The Macro Definition window has two separate points of definition on the right side of the screen. The

top section allows a string of commands to be associate with one of the five IR programmable buttons.

The bottom section automatically places the commands I the menu selections at the Control Pads.

Examples of this use would be specific disc selection on a multi-disc changer or specific station tuning

for satellite or cable receiver boxes.

The tree in the left-hand window displays all available IR codes from the library. The tree is automatically expanded to show the codes from the component associated with the source.

Each macro has a “Display Name” that is used to describe the macro. Before a macro can be saved, the name of the macro must be established.

4.1.1 Adding Codes to a Macro

A code is added to the macro by double-clicking on the green IR code name in the library to the left. That code will then be automatically added to the macro string to the right. Up to 100 codes can be added to a single macro.
