Learning Macros (Side Keys)

A Macro could include the Power key for your TV, followed by the Power key for your Cable box, followed (after a 2 second delay), by digit 4 from your cable remote. Then when you later activate this Macro it will turn on your TV, turn on your cable box, wait 2 seconds then set the cable box to channel 4.

At the Home screen press the Side Key next to Learn.

Then press any Side Key K1-K5 to the left to learn a Macro that you’ll save to a Side Key (and later rename it if desired).

Select the device you want to learn keys for. In this example we only have a TV, Cable Box and Satellite Receiver set up, so the rest are grayed out, but you can still select any of the devices to learn commands for. E.G., in this case we selected DVR.

Then select the Side Key that you want to store the Macro under. For example, L1.

Learning Macros, cont.

Line up the remotes and press OK when you’re ready.

Next press the key (on the other remote) for the function you want to learn. Hold the key pressed until the screen says that the command was successfully learned. Note for some types of key you might need to hold the key pressed, but for other types a quick press is sufficient. Experiment a bit. If keys you learn are sent multiple times try learning them with just a quick press.

Press Side Key K8 next to “Add Key to Macro” to add more keys.

You can set a delay (1-10 secs) after which the command stored in the Macro will be sent. (Repeatedly press Side Key K9 next to Set Delay, or enter the delay directly with the numeric keys, 0-9).

In this case we set a 2 second delay.
