Hint: When using the Power Macro the on/off states of your devices can
become unsynchronised, that is the television might be on but the
amp/tuner off – pressing the power button will turn the television off but
the amp/tuner on. This is because on most devices the power function is a
toggle, the same command turns the device on as turns the device off. To
overcome this, cover the front of the FOXTEL iQ Remote with your hand
when it is sending to the device you don't want to change. The Power
Macro first send the command to the television then the AMP/TUNER then
the VCR/DVD, the three commands are sent about half a second apart.
