Configuring the MLC 52 for a power-off confirmation
The MLC 52 can be configured so that the projector Power Off button does not need
to be pressed twice for confirmation. Using the macro mode feature, you can send
two power off commands sequentially from a single press of the MLC’s Off button.
To configure the MLC’s Off button to issue both a power off and a power off
confirmation command,
1 . Ensure that power is applied to the MLC 52.
2 . Set configuration DIP switch #1 on the rear panel to On (up).
3 . Program the MLC’s Off button’s first two command memory
blocks (commands #1 and #2) with a projector off command. See
“Configuring using IR learning” in chapter 3, “Operation,” for procedures.

4 . Put the MLC’s Off button that you have just programmed into macro mode
by pressing and holding the button for 3 seconds. The orange LED on the
back panel, labeled “E,” flashes rapidly five times, then turns off, indicating
that the button is now configured for macro mode.
5 . Set configuration DIP switch #1 on the MLC rear panel to Off (down).
Now, with one press of the MLC Off button, you can issue the two projector off
commands needed to both answer the projector ’s confirmation prompt and turn
the projector off. The commands are issued in succession at 1.5-second intervals.
