Using Macros

You can program the remote controller's MACRO but-
tons to perform a sequence of actions.
Example:
To play a CD, you typically need to perform the follow-
ing actions:
1. Press the [RECEIVER] REMOTE MODE button
to select the Receiver remote controller mode.
2. Press the [ON] button to turn on the AV receiver.
3. Press the [CD] INPUT SELECTOR button to
select the CD input source.
4. Press the [CD] REMOTE MODE button to select
the CD remote controller mode.
5. Press the Play [ ] button to start playback on the
CD player.
You can program a MACRO button so that all five
actions are performed with just one button press.

You can make one macro for each MACRO button, and
each macro may contain up to eight commands.
