HOW TO
CREATE
MACROS
MACRO EXAMPLES
Here are several macros you might find helpful in your day-to-day work with your
terminal.
By
following the step-by-step
procedures
for one or two of these
examples
,
you 'll also learn the sequence for creating your own macros.
The macros
shown
here are
:
•
Hard Copy Size - This macro lets you specify one
of
two different size
copies.
•
Dialog
Area
Enabling and Disabling - Th is macro allows you
to
disable the
dialog area so that you can make clean dialog copies
,
then reenable
it.
•
Host Copy Macro - This macro allows you to easily queue a copy from the host
directly to a
copier,
without displaying the file
on
the terminal screen.
•
Data Logging Macro - This macro allows you to turn data logging on and off
without going into Setup.
These examples use the NVLEARN command rather than the LEARN command
so that you can save these macros in nonvolatile memory. You could substitute
LEARN wherever you see
NVLEARN.
Hard Copy Size Macro
Assume you frequently need to change the setting of
the
HCSIZE command
.
You
can
program
two keys - one to specify the smaller size copy and one to specify
the larger size
-
so that you can easily switch
between
them
.
Here's how to set up
the macro that selects the smaller size
:
1.
Put the terminal in
Setup.
2.
To
start the programming process for a nonvolatile
macro,
enter this
command
:
NVLEARN
The
terminal
displays the following prompt:
Press the key to be defined
:
3.
Press
the F5 function key,
located
in the top-right row of keys. The screen
displays the number 132 (the macro
number for
the
F5
key) after the colon
,
and the following message appears on the
next
line:
Enter definition.
(F1
terminates definition
,
F2 deletes last character)
