Recording macros
A macro allows you to send a sequence of IR commands using a single button.
When you select “MACRO” in the Macro menu, seven macro groups (“DVD”, “GAME”, etc.) appears by default. Each group includes
buttons that allow you to record a sequence of commands.
In the Macro menu, there are two other macro groups (“POWER” and “SOURCE”).
• POWER
When you select “POWER” in the Macro menu, you see the touch screen that appears when you tap
in the Home menu panel. Com-
mands for turning several A/V components on or off at the same time are recorded in each power group button. A command for turning a
single component on or off is recorded in the corresponding component button.
• SOURCE
When you select “SOURCE” in the Macro menu, you see the touch screen that appears when tapping
or in the Home menu panel.
A command to switch the component control panel (and to switch the input of this unit, not of all components) is recorded in each compo-
nent button.
You can enhance and customize macros by recording new commands and editing them.
Notes
• To record a macro, there must be at least one macro group in the Macro menu. To create these groups, see “Organizing macros into groups”
on page __.
• Brands must be defined before macro can be set.
