Macros - Extron electronics XMP 240 C AT User Manual

Macros

Macros are sets of actions that can affect the local XMP 240 C AT and other Extron
products on the same TCP/IP or Dante network. They can be configured in Emulate or
Live mode via an Ethernet connection only, and they can be saved to a configuration file or
pushed to XMP internal memory. Macros are comprised of up to 32 actions that occur in
sequence to quickly configure a system for specific applications.
