To make a macro attachment setting in macro
only mode
Notes
To carry out this operation, it is first necessary to assign the
"Macro Only Set" function to the user preference buttons
in the menu control block or the utility/shotbox control
operation. Carry out this assignment in the Eng Setup
>Panel >Prefs/Utility menu (see page 506).
To make a macro attachment in macro only mode, use the
following procedure.
1
Recall the macro register (1 to 250) that you want to
assign to the button (see page 431).
2
Press the button to which [MCRO ONLY SET] is
assigned, turning it on.
3
Hold down the [PRE MCRO] or [POST MCRO]
button assigned to a utility/shotbox control block
button or user preference button, and press the desired
button in the background A row.
The cross-point button you pressed flashes green, and
the register you recalled in step 1 is assigned to the
button. The [MCRO ONLY SET] button goes off.
Without switching to macro only mode in step 2, if
you hold down the [PRE MCRO] and [POST MCRO]
buttons together and press the desired button, it is
possible to set a macro attachment in macro only mode
for that button.
To check macro attachment settings
Hold down the [PRE MCRO] or [POST MCRO] button

• Buttons set in pre macro mode: flash amber
• Buttons set in macro only mode: flash green
