USING MACROS
The RadioShack 8-in-One Remote includes six macro keys: M1 through
M4, COM MUTE, and PWR. Each one can be set up to perform a repetitive,
time-consuming operation with the press of a single key.
NOTES: A macro programmed onto the PWR key can only be accessed in the MY
SYSTEM mode. Pressing it in any other mode will only send a "Power On/Off "
IR command to the selected device. The COM MUTE key can be programmed as a
two-state rotating macro. See "Programming The COM MUTE Key" on page 27.
A macro can be used to control a home theater operation, to set a
favorite channel, or for other multiple functions you would like to control
with one key press. Moreover, each macro key can hold up to 15 key
presses total.
NOTE: Programming a new macro over an existing one will erase the
original macro.
