This table is for entry of Macro sequence steps.  Duplicate this page as necessary to define General-Purpose

Macros 1 to 10, Source-Select Macros 11 to 18, and misc Macros 19 and 20.  For each Macro you program,

enter each step in a Device/Func notation, with an optional comment.  For example:  Step-1 = Tuner/F1

(surround-on), Step-2 = Lts/23-On (drop screen), Step-3 = Delay/6 (20-sec), Step-4 = Laser/Play.
