REMOTE CONTROLLER

mMaking a new macro

A new macro can be programmed onto any preset macro key in place of the factory preset functions. (See page 78 to know what keys are preset macro keys.) You can make as many as 13 new macro keys. A macro key can learn as many as seven functions of other keys.

Note

If you store a continuous function such as lowering the volume level, it may not work well when carried out as a part of macro.

Flashes slowly.

*If there is no operation for about 30 seconds after the MACRO button is pressed, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the mode before you pressed the MACRO button is restored. Press the MACRO button again.

Lights up.

*If a key other than a preset macro key is pressed, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the current mode is canceled. Repeat this step.

3 Press a key whose function you want to store as the first function of the new macro.

Goes off.

(When learning is finished, this indicator lights up again.)

*If a key whose function cannot be stored as a command of macro is pressed, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the current mode is canceled. Repeat this step.

*If about 30 seconds pass before a key is pressed, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the mode before you began learning operations is restored. Restart from step 1.

4 Repeat step 3 to store the second, the third and more functions. You can store up to seven key functions in series as a macro.

*If the seventh key function has been learned, the TRANSMIT/LEARN indicator flashes rapidly and the mode before you began learning operations is restored. (This shows that the key has completed learning a series of functions as a macro.) You do not have to follow the next step.

5 When you finish learning, press the MACRO button.

Notes

•If, for example, you store a function whose operation takes a long time as the first command, add a command which has no function between the first command and the second command, or repeat the second command again.

•If you program the power on/off switching function of TV, VCR, etc. as a part of a macro sequence, note that it switches the current mode to the other (“on” to “off”, or “off” to “on”).

For example, when you press the macro key, if the power of TV, VCR, etc. is already on, the power will be turned off even though you may not want it to do so.
