Self-Directed Startup
This example shows some more of the versatility of the macro
language. Here, a status channel triggered Macro #10 to run.
The macro first tests to find out if the REMOTE/LOCAL button
on the front panel is in LOCAL mode. If it is, the macro ends
immediately.
If the unit is in REMOTE mode, then the macro proceeds. The
unit MUTES the status channel that starts the macro. Meter
Channel 1 is then turned off along with the muting of Meter
Channels 2, 3, and 4. The Calibration Constants of Meter
Channels 2, 3, and 4 are adjusted for the new power output
levels of the backup transmitter. The displayed value viewed by
monitoring software of Meter Channel 1 is equated to the
product of Meter Channels 5 and 6.
Since other macros could have made changes to various meter
or status input channels, Status Channel 4 and Meter Channel
10 are tested to make sure they are active or unmuted. Then
Macro #20 on this unit is started, which is the full power-up
routine. This macro waits 2 minutes for Macro #20 to finish.
Status Channel 3 is unmuted. An alarm is generated, notifying
the dial-out connections and any full-time direct connect
stations that the backup transmitter is now going on-air. A
capture is made to show the current state of all inputs and
outputs for database use as needed. Just in case any other
macros dealing with the backup transmitter are running, they
are terminated to stop any interference. The macro then ends
normally.
