Note
When registering a rewind or move to start point operation
as an event for an external device, you must take into
account the time taken to complete execution. Adjust the
timing by inserting a pause event.
Take operation
This operation is used to resume execution of a paused
macro.
A take operation is performed using the [TAKE] button in
the Flexi Pad control block.
You can also assign the "Macro Take" utility command to
a cross-point button in the cross-point control block and a
memory recall button in the utility control block.
Macro execution mode
The following two types of execution mode can be set.
For details about setting the execution mode, see "Setting
the macro execution mode" (page 328).
Normal execution mode
When execution of an event ends, the next event is
automatically executed.
Step execution mode
When execution of an event ends, execution is paused. The
next event is executed by a take operation.
Executing multiple macros simultaneously
(multi mode)
Normally, a single macro can be executed at a time, but
enabling multi mode allows multiple macros to be
executed.
For details about setting multi mode, see "To enable
simultaneous execution of multiple macros" (page 328).
Simultaneous execution of multiple macros is supported
only when macro registers are recalled using the following
buttons.
• Cross-point buttons of the cross-point control block
configured with a macro attachment
• Cross-point buttons of the cross-point control block
assigned with macro register recall function
• Memory recall buttons in the utility control block
assigned with macro register recall function
Notes
• In multi mode, macros are executed in normal execution
mode, regardless of the execution mode setting.
• Up to 16 macros can be executed simultaneously.
• Editing operations cannot be used for macros that are
being executed simultaneously.
• If operations due to events executing simultaneously
conflict with each other, the events may not be
reproduced with the registered settings or sequence.
• To resume all paused macros within the macros executed
simultaneously, press the button assigned with the
"Macro All Take" utility command.
• To stop all macros executed simultaneously, press the
button assigned with the "Macro All Cancel" utility
command.
Triggering macro execution using GPI
input
You can recall a macro register and perform a take
operation using a GPI input.
For details about GPI inputs, see "Setting a GPI Input"
(page 332).
