Notes
• It is not possible to execute more than one macro at a time. Therefore, even
if you simultaneously press multiple buttons for which macro attachments
are set, only one macro is executed.
• If a button is pressed twice during macro execution or when the macro is
stopped, or if another macro is recalled, the following operation (stop or
continue) depends on a setting in setup.
For details of the settings, see "Setting the Macro Execution Mode" in
Chapter 19 (Volume 3).
• Individual events stored in a macro are executed according to the settings in
setup. If you change the settings in setup, a saved macro may not have the
expected effect.
• During macro execution, if you switch the control panel to macro editing
mode, the macro being executed stops.
• During macro editing, pressing a button for which a macro attachment is set
does not execute the macro.
To disable macro attachment settings
Press the [MCRO ATTCH ENBL] button assigned to a utility/shotbox control
block button or user preference button, turning it off.
In this state, pressing a button for which a macro attachment is set does not
execute the macro.
