Performing Several Commands In Sequence Automatically (Macro Play) - Sony STR-DE998 Operating Instructions Manual

Performing several
commands in sequence
automatically
(Macro Play)
The Macro Play function lets you link several IR
codes in a sequential order as a single command.
The remote provides 2 macro lists (M1 and M2).
You can specify up to 10 IR codes for each
macro list.
Setting the sequence of IR codes
1
Hold down RM SET UP and press
TV ?/1.
The indicator lights up and "LEARN"
appears in the display.
2
Move the Easy scroll key (PUSH) to
select "M1" or "M2".
3
Press the numeric buttons to select the
macro step number.
For example, to program step 1, press 1.
The indicator flashes slowly.
4
Point the remote control code receiver
section of the remote towards the
receiver/transmitter on the remote
control to be learned.
5
Press the appropriate button on the
remote control to be learned to send
the remote button code.
Lightly pressing the button once should be
sufficient.
If learning is completed successfully, the
indicator slowly flashes twice and the
remote automatically exits the learning
mode.
When learning is not completed
successfully, the indicator flashes 4 times in
quick succession and the procedure returns
to step 5.
6
Repeat steps 1 through 5 to program
up to 10 IR codes.
Tip
If programming is unsuccessful, check the following:
– If the indicator does not light up in step 1, the
batteries are weak. Replace both batteries.
– If the indicator lights 4 times in quick succession
in step 4, an error has occurred. Start again from
step 1.
To cancel programming
Press RM SET UP during any step. The remote
automatically exits the macro setting mode.
To delay the output of an IR code
Delay each macro step individually. In step
press PUSH within 2 seconds.
1 second delay is programmed at this program
step. The indicator lights up twice slowly, then
the remote automatically exits the macro setting
mode.
To clear the programmed IR
codes
Clear each macro step individually. In step
PUSH
press for more than 2 seconds.
The IR code is cleared. The indicator lights up
twice slowly, then the remote automatically
exits the macro setting mode.
To start macro play
Move the Easy scroll key (PUSH) to select
"M1" or "M2".
Note
If the Macro Play function does not work properly,
program a delay between each operation. See "To
