Using Macros

With the Macro function you can program the remote
controller to perform a sequence of actions with one
press of a button. For example, normally you need to
perform the following actions to use a CD player that's
connected to the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E:
1. Press the scroll wheel, (to select AMP mode).
2. Press the [ON] button (to turn on the
TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E).
3. Roll the scroll wheel to select CD (to select the
CD remote controller mode and the CD input
source).
4. Press the Play [ ] button (to start the CD
player).
With the Macro function you can program the remote
controller to do all of this with one press of a button.
