Macros (sequence of commands)
Macros (direct)
You can program your
KAMELEON 6
to issue a sequence of commands at the
press of one button. For example, you may want to turn off your TV, VCR and
Satellite at the same time. Any sequence of commands you regularly use can be
reduced to one key stroke for your convenience. A key that is programmed with
a Macro works through all modes (provided it’s accessible in that mode).
Therefore a Macro can best be set on either the A, B or C key. However, you can
install a Macro on any key (provided it’s accessible in that mode), except for the
device keys (TV, VCR, SAT, AUD, CD and DVD), the MAGIC key and the SCROLL
key.
Example: To set up a Macro
that switches off your TV, VCR and SAT
on the
“A” key on your
KAMELEON 6
:
1. Press and hold MAGIC until the rabbit
comes out of the hat (the screen
will change to the setup screen).
2.
Press
MACRO
.
3.
Press the device key (e.g
. TV
) to display all keys of the mode.
4.
Then press the key to which the Macro will be assigned, in this case the
“
A
” key.
5.
Next press
TV
,
POWER
,
VCR
,
POWER
,
SAT
,
POWER
.
6.
To store the Macro,
press and hold MAGIC until you get two blinks on
the IR Indicator and the rabbit disappears
(the screen will return to the
setup screen).
Result: Whenever you press the “
A
” key, the
KAMELEON 6
will turn off your TV,
VCR and Satellite receiver.
-
Each MACRO can consist of a maximum of 15 keystrokes.
-
To include a function from a particular screen in a mode, use the SCROLL
key.
-
Make sure that you program a Macro on a spare key that you don’t use in
any mode.
-
Once you program a Macro on a specific key, the sequence will work regard-
less of the mode (TV, VCR, SAT, CD, AUD or DVD) you are using (if the label
is the same as the label on which the Macro was programmed). This means
that the function picked on that specific key will be sacrificed.
-
To avoid accidental recordings with the KAMELEON 6, you must press the
RECORD key twice to begin recording. Please note that if you assign a
Macro or Shifted Macro to the RECORD key, this will deactivate the double
key press. Therefore we recommend not to assign a Macro to this key.
-
If you had to hold down a key for a few seconds on the original remote
control to get a function, this function may not work in a macro on your
KAMELEON 6 remote.
-
Keys such as (TV) menu, (VCR) menu etc. will not change screen when
pressed during Macro programming.
-
Upon changing the batteries your Macro(s) will be retained.
-
If you program a Macro on a key, the original function will become shifted
(excluding POWER, CH+/- and VOL+/- keys). Press MAGIC then the key to
access it. If you place a Macro on a digit key, access the original function by
pressing MAGIC twice and then the digit key.
-
You can replace a Macro by placing another Macro on top.
