The macro will now appear in the macro list and also in the macro com-

mands on every DS/DSR appliance’s window.

Example: creating a macro where the Ctrl key is held while F1-F2-F3
are typed:

1. Enter a name for the macro. In this case, Ctrl-F1-F2-F3.

Figure 4.2: Entering the Macro Name

2. The

Ctrl key is pressed first and held, so double-click on the Left or Right

Ctrl keystroke under Double-click for Key Press. It will move to the second

list and the command Press [Left Ctrl] will appear in the third list.

3. F1, F2 and F3 are pressed and released in order. Locate F1 in the Double-

click for Key Press list and double-click it. It will move to the second list

and the command Press [F1] will appear in the third list.

4. F1 will be released before F2 is pressed, so you will need to double-click

on F1 under the Double-click for Key Release list before proceeding. This

will create a Release command in the Macro Created list and F1 will

disappear from the second list.
