Functions 9000-DVS 1 Chapter

Macros

The term “macro” refers to the function whereby a sequence of signal selections and other operations on the control panel is saved as data in memory, so that it can be recalled as required to automatically execute the same sequence of operations.

For details of macro operations, see “Macros” in Chapter 18 (Volume 2).

Macro registers

The area of memory that holds a macro is termed a “macro register.” For each control panel there are 99 macro registers, numbered 1 to 99.

Events

The individual control panel operations constituting a macro are termed “events.” One macro can contain a maximum of 99 events.

The following table shows the operations for each control block of the control panel that can be saved as events in a macro.
