REPEATING SERIES OF KEY PRESSES USING
THE AUD AND VID KEYS
The
A/V Producer has two Macro keys (AUD and
VID) that allow the user to play back a series of key
strokes at any time with the press of one key. Each
sequence can have up to a maximum of 15
keystrokes. These keys are not mode specific and
can be accessed in any mode. For example, to set
up a sequence that will turn on your devices and turn
the devices to the proper inputs:
1
Press and hold MAGIC until the
display screen changes from
[DEVICE and the TIME] to
[TIMED SEQ]. Press MENU -
twice until the display reads
[CONFIGURE], then press SELECT.
The display will then read
[THEATR SEL].
2
Press MENU - four times until the
display reads [KEY MACRO]. Press
SELECT. The display will read
[SEL MACKEY]. Press either the
AUD or VID sequence key. This will
be the key that will play back the
series of keystrokes assigned to that
key. The display will then read
[SELECT SEQ]. Begin entering the
sequence of keystrokes, up to 15,
that you wish to be played back
when you press either AUD or VID.
Note:
You cannot use either the AUD or VID keys in
your macro sequence.
For example:
TUN + POWER + TV + POWER +
TV/SAT (To change the input on the
TV to VIDEO 1) + SAT + POWER.
Note:
When setting up your sequence, you will need
to include any keystrokes that would normally be
required during regular usage, such as pressing
ENTER after entering a channel number when
changing channels

HOW TO USE THE SHIFT KEY
The
A/V Producer has features that can be
accessed by using the SHIFT key. These features
are listed above the key that they are mapped to.
For example, on the transport keys (PLAY, REW,
FF, STOP and PAUSE) there are the following
features: SLOW, SLOW +, SLOW -, X2 and EJECT.
These are accessed by pressing SHIFT and the key,
for example, to eject a tape from your VCR press:
SHIFT + STOP
This will eject your tape, as long as your original
remote supported this feature.
Note:
Once you have pressed the SHIFT key, the
A/V Producer will remain in the "Shift" mode,
indicated by an S on the LCD screen, for 10
seconds after the last key press or until the SHIFT
key is pressed again.
The following keys have functions that are shifted:
CENTER:
SHIFT + CENTER = REAR
MENU:
SHIFT + MENU = PROGRAM
SELECT:
SHIFT + SELECT = CLEAR
MUTE:
SHIFT + MUTE = SLEEP
PREV CH:
SHIFT + PREV CH = DISPLAY
PIP:
SHIFT + PIP = FREEZE PIP
REW:
SHIFT + REW = SLOW-
PLAY:
SHIFT + PLAY = SLOW
FF:
SHIFT + FF = SLOW +
STOP:
SHIFT + STOP = EJECT
PAUSE:
SHIFT + PAUSE = X2
Important:
For a more detailed explanation of what
function each shifted key performs by device type
(TV, VCR, etc.), please refer to pages 45 through 57

When your macro sequence is
concluded, press ESC to save.
Whenever the sequence key is pressed, the Tuner
will power ON, the TV will power ON and change the
input to VIDEO 1 and then the Satellite will power
ON.
Repeat these steps to then setup the other se-
quence key (either AUD or VID) to your needs.
