Using a Macro function
Programming the Direct Macro function
With the direct macro function, you can program a series
of button operations as a macro into the DIRECT MACRO
button so the macro can be executed with just one
touch. Note that for the direct macro function, only one
macro can be programmed. For example, to program
the macro described on the previous page for the DIRECT
MACRO button, perform the steps given below.
1. Press and hold down any one of the eight
MODE buttons, press the DIRECT MACRO
button, and then release both buttons.
When you press the MODE button, the SEND/LEARN
indicator lights and that mode appears in the dis-
play. When you press the DIRECT MACRO button,
the indicator turns off. When you release the but-
tons, the indicator flashes briefly and then lights
again and “M 01” appears in the display.
2. Press the operation buttons you wish to
program in order (in this case,
press AUDIO/TAPE MODE
→ POWER ON → CD
(INPUT SELECTOR)
→ CD MODE → playback
button).
When you press each button, the SEND/LEARN indi-
cator turns off and the display changes from “M 01”
→ “M 02” → “M 03” → etc. When you release the
button, the indicator lights.
3. Press the DIRECT MACRO button to complete
the procedure.
The SEND/LEARN indicator flashes twice slowly and
“SAVED” appears in the display.
4. Check to see if the macro has been properly
programmed.
Notes:
• You may program up to 16 button operations into
each macro function. If you try to program a 17th
operation, it will be ignored, “SAVED” appears in the
display, and programming is stopped.
• If no button is pressed for more than 30 seconds dur-
ing the programming, the SEND/LEARN indicator
flashes three times quickly, “ERROR” appears in the
display, and the remote controller exits the pro-
gramming mode. Resume from Step 1.
• If you perform an invalid operation during program-
ming, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times
quickly, “ERROR” appears in the display, and the re-
mote controller exits the programming mode. Re-
sume from Step 1.
Running a Direct Macro function
Perform the procedure below to run a direct macro
function that you have programmed into the remote
controller. After programming a direct macro, you
should always run it at least once to make sure that it
has been programmed properly.
1. Point the remote controller at the DTR-9.1 and
press the DIRECT MACRO button.
It may take a while for the macro to finish transmit-
ting, so be sure to continue pointing the remote
controller at the device until the SEND/LEARN indi-
cator turns off.
Tips:
• If you erase or change the command of a button
programmed in the direct macro, that operation of
that button will no longer work in the macro. In this
case, it will be necessary for you to reprogram the
direct macro in order to avoid incorrect operation.
• The codes programmed into a direct macro will be
transmitted at an interval of 0.5 seconds. However,
some devices may not be able to complete one
operation in 0.5 seconds and may miss the next
code. In this case, after pressing one operation but-
ton, you can press the same MODE button again
before pressing the next operation button to add
another 0.5 seconds between the two operations.
