Smart Macro Key Operations

Your RCU900's Smart Macro feature allows you to execute a
sequence of commands with one keypress. A Smart Macro learns
any sequence of original remote commands. A total of 20
Learned commands can be stored under each of the nine
available LCD MACRO keys. The sequence of commands you
want a Smart Macro to execute must be programmed in correct
sequential order. Any sequence of commands that you regularly
perform can be stored as a Smart Macro and reduced to a single
keypress. You cannot program a Macro within a Macro.
