Macro Programming
The interaction between the
devices connected to the
BeoLink Gateway is defined by
means of macros.
A macro consists of a set of
events and commands. When
any of the events that are
defined in a macro occur (e.g. a
key press on a keypad; a Control
Command on a Bang & Olufsen
remote control etc.), the macro
will be triggered. This means
that the commands in the macro
will be executed in order.
A macro is also assigned to area/
zone to which it belongs even if
it handles activity outside the
zone.
Having macros assigned to
zones helps, when setting up user interfaces.
In the example shown for the cinema, a button exists in the room (‘Cinema Scene wall button’ captured in resources for the Cinema, as well as a
virtual button (‘Cinema Scene, created as a virtual resource).
