Executing a Macro by Macro Attachment
Note
To carry out this operation, it is first necessary to assign the “MCRO ATTCH
ENBL” function to the user preference buttons in the menu control block or the
utility/shotbox control block. Carry out this assignment in the Eng Setup
>Panel >Prefs/Utility menu.
(For details, see “Setting Button Assignments
(Prefs/Utility Menu)” in Chapter 19 (Volume 3).)
Executing a macro assigned to a button
1
Press the [MCRO ATTCH ENBL] button assigned to a utility/shotbox
control block button or user preference button, turning it on.
2
Press the desired button for which a macro attachment has been set.
This recalls the macro register assigned to the button, and the macro is
executed as follows, according to the operation mode.
Pre macro mode: The macro is executed first, and then the button
function is executed.
Post macro mode: The button function is executed first, and then the
macro is executed.
Macro only mode: The button function is not executed, and the macro
only is executed.
During macro execution, the button you pressed flashes.
Notes
• It is not possible to execute more than one macro at a time. Therefore, even
if you simultaneously press multiple buttons for which macro attachments
are set, only one macro is executed.
• During macro execution, recalling the same register again stops the macro
being executed. Therefore, pressing twice a button for which a macro
attachment is set stops the macro being executed.
• Individual events stored in a macro are executed according to the settings in
setup. If you change the settings in setup, a saved macro may not have the
expected effect.
• During macro execution, if you switch the control panel to macro editing
mode, the macro being executed stops.
• During macro editing, pressing a button for which a macro attachment is set
does not execute the macro.
