4.12.5 Reviewing Macro
Once a macro has been recorded and modified to your liking, you may review it in
the Macro Editor to ensure it will play out correctly. To play out Macros during a
production use the Macro Player, as described in the next section.
To review a macro:
1.
To start running the macro from the
beginning, click on the
Play
button in the
Control Bar, as shown on the right.
The button will illuminate green and turn to a
Playing button and the macro will run from the
beginning with all the appropriate timing.
2.
To play one step at a time, click on the
Step
button in the Control Bar.
This function will play out one step/action for
every button push. Use Play Step for a manual
confirmation that the action is occurring, not for
timing purposes.
3.
To run a macro from the middle, select the
step line with the mouse and click on the
From
button in the Control Bar.
The macro will start from the selected point
and playback all the appropriate timing.
Once a macro is running the Counter will
display the elapsed time in mm:ss:ff, as shown
on the right.
For macros longer than 1 hour the display will
automatically add the hours in the display.
In addition, a progress bar will appear behind
the counter representing the progress to the
end of the macro.
