Program 1500 - Macro Key Sequence Programming

Macros are special function keys that are used to execute a sequence of key depressions. For
example, a macro might be used to execute a string of reports or to automatically tender a
preset amount. Up to ten different macros may be placed on the keyboard. (See "Function
Key Assignment Programming" on page 101 to place macros on the keyboard.)

To Remove a Macro
If you wish to change a macro sequence change the function key assignment of the key to
'Inactive', and then reassign the macro function and reprogram the keystrokes as shown
above. (See "Function Key Assignment Programming" on page 101.)
