Notes on programming macros
• The first command of a macro always needs to consist of a Mode button (TV, VCR, etc)
• You may have to enter a delay in the macro (e.g. to let your TV warm up). Press
PAUSE (23) followed by a numerical key (1-9) to enter a delay of between 1 and 9
seconds. The standard delay between the separate macro commands is half a second.
• The macro buttons can execute both infrared (IR) and radio frequency (RF) commands.
This means you can both activate your audio and video equipment and control the
lights at the same time (using the Marmitek Home Control TM13). This is ideal for
Home Theatre applications. See www.marmitek.com for more information.
