Macro Recording and Playback

You can assign keyboard Macros to function keys F1 – F24.

Note: the Record and Play keys on the lower left of the 122-key twinax style keyboard are
functional in the X-Windows mode only. If you are in a Text mode session use Alt+r and
Alt+p for Record and Play.

Hit the Record key (or Alt+r), then the selected Function key (F1-F24), and then start entering
the keystrokes that you’d like to record. When finished, hit the Record key (Alt+r) again to
stop recording.

To play a macro, hit the Play key (or Alt+p), then the function key (F1-F24).

On a PC (104 key) keyboard, use the Alt+r and Alt+p short cuts to assign Macros to the
function keys F1-F12.

F(x) refers to the function keys F1-F12
Alt+R+F(x) = Record Macro F(x)
Alt+R = Stop recording
Alt+P+F(x) = Play Macro F(x)

While you are in record mode an R will appear on the bottom of the screen, along with a
counter and the Function key that the Macro is being recorded to.

To see the macros, Click the Start button and select View Keyboard Macros.
