Note:
If the POWER or SYSTEM OFF buttons are pro-
grammed with a macro, they will no longer function
as ON and OFF buttons for components. To restore
their original on and off function, erase any macros
programmed onto them.
Programming Macro Functions to M1, M2, M3, POWER
and SYSTEM OFF Buttons
To program macro functions to the M1, M2, M3, Power,
System Off buttons:
1. Go to the SETUP mode by pressing the HOME and ENT button
simultaneously for three seconds.
2. Press the MACRO button next to the LCD screen.
3. Press the macro button (M1, M2, M3, Power or System Off)
being programmed.
4. Press the functional buttons you wish to store in the device
macro button you selected, in the order you want them stored.
Up to 20 commands can be stored.
Note:
Do not press the HOME button at the beginning of a
macro, or it will not work. The HOME button can be
used at any other step in a macro.
5. Be sure to end a macro on the Device page that you would like
it to remain on when the macro is sent in normal use.
6. Store the commands programmed into the macro button by
pressing the CH UP button.
There are five pages of LCD screens for favorite channel program-
ming. Scroll to other pages by pressing the PAGE or FAV button. In
the Favorite Channels macro, the following buttons can be used: 0-
9, ENTER, DISPLAY, POWER, SYSTEM OFF and INFO/PAUSE.
Note:
To make even more powerful FAV macros, codes can
be learned from original remote(s) to the 0-9, ENTER,
DISPLAY, POWER, SYSTEM OFF and INFO/PAUSE but-
tons in any device, and used in your FAV macros.
(This will not work if a preprogrammed device code
has been applied to those buttons.) For example,
some TVs require a code be sent after the digits other
than the ENTER code in order to change channels. In
this case, you could learn the proper code to the
ENTER button from your original TV remote, and use
that in your FAV macro.
PROGRAMMING MACRO BUTTONS
A “macro” is a series of commands that can be sent with the push
of a single button. There are two types of macro functions that can
be programmed: functions involving the M1, M2 and M3 buttons;
or functions involving the POWER and SYSTEM OFF buttons. Each
of these buttons is designed to send up to 20 commands. The 10
device buttons can also send a macro of up to 20 commands when
the device button is pressed for more than one second while on the
HOME page of the remote control.
