4) Select SAVE, or press EXIT to make no change. Either of these will return you to the SETUP
menu.

MACRO

The macro mode allows you to set up certain buttons to transmit up to 20 commands in sequence.
For example, a single button press could turn on all of your home theater equipment, and set the
DMC-1 to DVD, set the TV to channel 3, and set the DVD to play, make the tea and put the cat out.
The buttons which can be programmed as macros are: M1, M2 and M3 at the bottom of the remote,
and Power and System at the top. The ten device buttons can also be programmed as macros,
although these will only be activated if the device button is held down for a few seconds.
Note that the macro buttons are independent of which device the remote is set for. So there is only
one M1 macro, only one power macro etc.
1) In the SETUP mode, press MACRO.
2) Press one of the buttons you wish to program as a macro, such as M3, Power, or a device
button.
3) Press up to 20 buttons you would like the macro program to store. Do this in the exact order you
want them to be transmitted. Use the PAGE, FAV and the direct buttons to find buttons to use in
the macro.
4) To add a delay between steps, you can add 0.2 seconds each time you press PAUSE (II). This does
not take up a step.
5) Press the CHANNEL UP button to save your macro.
6) Repeat this procedure to program more macros, and press MAIN to return to the main menu.
7) Try out the macros to see if they work as expected. It may take some time to transmit all the
commands in sequence, so keep the remote pointing at your equipment and do not move it during
this time.

Note that the remote’s ZONE 2, PAGE 2 has discrete on and off codes for the Main Zone and Zone 2. You
can use these within Macros instead of the main power button commands (which toggle on/off).

RECAL (Recall)

This mode lets you quickly see the three digit codes you have assigned to each device. This is useful
if you want to check the tables and find other codes which may work better.
1) In the SETUP mode, select RECAL. The device labels and their codes will flash alternately, before
returning to the SETUP menu. Make a note of the codes.
2) Press MAIN to return to the main device menu.
