Custom Controls
The Custom Control function allows you to program sequences of keystrokes (called “macros”) and
other special switcher functions — and store them in dedicated buttons and banks in the Custom
Control group. Once programmed, a macro can be played back simply by pressing one button in the
Custom Control group. A custom control macro can be as simple as triggering an output GPI pulse,
or as complex as recalling a specific memory register, performing a switcher transition, and flying a
group of keys — all with one-button simplicity.
The figures below illustrate each switcher’s Custom Control Group . Note that sample labels are
provided.
• Synergy 2 — The following figure illustrates the Custom Control Group for the
Synergy 2, 2003 edition panel. A total of 17 registers are provided, up to eight of which
can be assigned as
banks to increase the total number of available registers.
