Macros - Extron electronics DMP 128 Plus User Manual

Macros

Macros are sets of actions that can affect the local DMP 128 Plus as well as other Extron
products on the same TCP/IP network. They can be configured in Emulate or Live mode
via an Ethernet connection only, and either saved to a configuration file or pushed onto
DMP 128 Plus internal memory. Macros are comprised of up to 32 actions that occur in
sequence to quickly configure a system for specific applications.
