Setting Up More - X10 IconRemote IR27A Owner's Manual

Learning Macros, cont.
Point your existing remote at the bottom
of the IR27A IconRemote and press OK
when you're ready. Then press your next
key.
After adding more keys you can keep the
label for the key (in this example L1) or
select Change Label, by pressing Side
Key K9.
If you select Change Label you can
change the name to anything you want.
For example you could call it My Macro,
or Macro 1.
After you select Change Label you see
the screen below to the right.
You enter the new name for the key using
the numeric keys, in a similar fashion to
typing in text on a cell phone. E.g., in
this example we pressed the 6 key on the
remote to enter the letter "M." Then we
pressed the 2 key repeatedly until the
letter "a" was displayed. Then we waited
a second and repeatedly pressed 2 to
select "c." Then we waited a second and
repeatedly pressed the number 7 key
until we selected "r." Then the 6 key to
select "o." Then the 0 (zero) key twice to
select a space, and then 1 to select 1.
Macro 1 is then displayed.
Press Done to save the new label for the
Macro you learned and stored under the
L1 key.
The next time you select the Mode that
the Macro was learned in (in this case
DVR), you'll see that you can press the
Side Key next to "Macro 1" to activate
the Macro.

Setting up more Devices
When you first inserted the batteries in the
remote you likely went through the
Wizard and set up a few devices. Here's
how to set up more devices. Press the
HOME key to display the Home screen.
Then press the Side Key next to Setup.
Then press the Side Key next to Devices.
Pick a device you want to set up. It
doesn't have to be a device that is grayed
out. You can also select any device that's
already set up (not grayed out) and
change its settings. From this point,
setting up a device is the same as you
learned in the Wizard. (See page 9.) Note,
you can select Aux 1 or Aux 2 from the
Devices screen and then select any type of
device to set up under either Aux key.
Or, you could select any device, and then
press Change Type repeatedly, on screen
(1) above, to scroll through the devices
and change to TV (for example) to set up
a second TV. Selecting Label, on screen
(2) lets you rename the device, e.g., you
could call it Den TV and have another
called Liv Rm TV.
Note: "Triple tap" name entry works in a
similar fashion as text entry on a cell
phone. Tap each numeric key to cycle
through ALL caps, numbers, and lower
case letters. So at screen (3) you could
press the 6 key to enter M, then the 9 key
8 times for a lower case y, then the zero
key twice for a space, then the 8 key for
T, then the 8 key three times for a V, to
enter My TV. See pages 13, 14, and 30
for more details on entering text to
change labels.
