USING MACROS
The OFA Kameleon 8-Device Remote includes
five Macro Keys, M1 through M4 and POWER.
Each one can be set up to perform a repetitive,
time-consuming operation with the press of a
single key.
NOTE: A macro programmed onto the POWER key can
only be accessed in the HOME THEATER mode. Pressing
it in any other mode will only send a "Power On/Off"
IR command to the selected device.
A macro can be used to control a home theater
operation, to set a favorite channel, or for other
multiple functions you would like to control
with one key press. Moreover, each Macro Key
can hold up to 15 key presses total.
NOTE: Programming a new macro over an existing
one will erase the original macro.

ROGRAMMING
With so many channels available on your cable
or satellite system, you can program a macro
that directly selects a favorite channel with one
key press.
For example, let's assume your favorite cable
programs are on channel 71. Use the following
instructions to program a macro for direct access
of this channel:
NOTE: The following example assumes all equipment
is turned off and that the TV is connected through the
Cable Box with TV tuning set to channel 3.
1. Press and hold SETUP until the two bottom
IR segments flash twice. The Program Keys
will appear as SETUP flashes repeatedly.
2. Press MACRO once. The Macro programming
screen will appear (as shown above right):

3. Press an open Macro Key (e.g., M1, M2, M3,
or M4). The last-selected device menu screen,
including HOME, will be displayed.
4. Enter a desired macro sequence of up to 15
key presses. For this example, press TV once,
followed by POWER once, and then enter 0 3
for the TV's channel number. Next, press
CBL/SAT once, followed by POWER once,
and then enter 0 7 1 for the Cable Box's
channel number.

NOTE: If there are more than 15 key presses in the
sequence, the bottom IR segments will display a
long flash denoting an error. The display will return
to the last-selected device menu screen. To program
the macro, start again with step 3.
5. To save the macro, press and hold SETUP until
the two bottom IR segments flash twice. The
Program Keys will appear again.
6. Exit programming by pressing HOME once.
The display will return to the last-selected
device menu screen
7. Now, if you aim the remote control at the
devices selected in step 4 and press the
programmed Macro Key once, the TV will
turn on and tune to channel 3. Then, the Cable
Box will turn on, and tune to channel 071.
