while playing with the macro button then remaining high tally to indicate
it was the last macro run.

The number of macros available for immediate playback on the Macro row
varies, depending on the number of buttons available, as shown in table

Table 8

.

Macros can also be incorporated into E-MEMs and be executed when that
E-MEM runs.

Macro Attachments

Macros can be attached to other Control Panel buttons. Attached macros
can either augment the button’s normal function or replace it. A Pre Attach
macro executes when the button is pressed, followed by the button’s
normal action. A Post Attach macro executes after the button’s normal
action. A Replace Attach macro substitutes the macro for the button’s
normal action. Any combination of Pre, Post, or Replace Attach macros can
be associated with the same button. This makes it possible to have a single
button press play three separate macros though this is not a typical sce-
nario.

Note

Macro attachments to buttons without colors do not appear to flash when
Pre-/Post-Attached macros are attached. To verify that a macro is or is not
attached, see the Macros, Attach menu.

Macro Control Button Group

The Macro Control Button group on the System Bar area has eight buttons.
These controls are located above the PGM PST stripe, at the far right of the
System Bar area, as shown in (
