3.2.4 Macro Button
The
Macro
key allows one to execute the traditional macros managed by the command station. However, it
also allows for sending 64-bit LCC events. If the number entered exceeds the maximum Macro number
supported, the menu heading will switch from
MACRO
to
EVENT
. Press
Enter
after all 16 hexadecimal
digits of the event have been entered in order to send the LCC event number onto the LCC bus. While
cumbersome for normal operations, the ability to manually enter and send a 16-digit hexadecimal LCC
event can be a useful troubleshooting tool. The
EXPN
key can be pressed to enter hexadecimal digits A
through F.
3.2.5 Select Accessory
Upon entering an accessory address, the last known state of the accessory (N/ON or R/OFF) will be
indicated with an arrow (< or >). If the last state is unknown, a question mark will be displayed.
