PROGRAMMING MACROS

This remote control can program a series of button
operations in sequence.
Macros are a function that makes it possible to use
a single button operation to perform a complex
series of button operations any number of times. A
single button can be programmed to perform up to
20 steps in sequence. A total of 20 buttons can be
programmed with macros.
• For example, the following sequence of
operations can be programmed to a macro.
Switch amplifier to DVD source → Set amplifier
mode to AUTO → Play DVD player → Switch TV
to video input
The factory default for the transmission interval
(time) between macro operations is one second,
but these signal transmission intervals can be set
between approximately 0.5 seconds and 5
seconds in the Setup mode. Each transmission
interval can be adjusted independently when
programming or revising a macro.
36
Note:
If the signal transmission interval (interval time)
is changed using the Setup mode (described
later), this transmission interval is applied to all
macro programs. To change individual signal
transmission intervals, use the procedures in
this section for programming macros and
revising macros.
• No signals are transmitted while programming a
macro.
• The M button, > button, cursor buttons, MEMO
button, CLEAR button, and VOL buttons cannot
PAGE 1 2
be programmed.
• If no button is pressed for approximately one
minute during programming, the remote control
returns to the state before macro mode.
In this case, the macro program is not stored.
• When executing macro mode, performing the
source switching operation two or more times
only changes the remote control mode and does
not transmit any signals. (Switching of the
source selector of the amplifier is valid only
once.)
PROGRAMMING MACROS
This example shows how to program a macro to
the M-01 button.
(The screens shown in the example are the default
factory states. If the names of direct buttons were
rewritten, these modified names would be
displayed.)
Switch amplifier to DVD source → Play DVD player
→ Set the interval to 2 seconds until the next signal
is sent → Switch TV to video input → Set the
amplifier mode to AUTO

CHANGING NAMES OF MACRO PROGRAMS
Under the factory default settings, the names of the
macro programs are set from M-01 to M-20, but you
can change them to any desired name.
The text can have up to six characters, and it is
entered using the numeric buttons.
This example shows how to change the M-01
name to MOVIE.
