MACROS

MOSAIC includes a powerful Macro feature that memorizes and plays back a series of key strokes at
any time with the tap of one key. Up to 21 macros can be defined, each containing a maximum of 32
keystrokes. Once defined, a macro must be placed on a Device Screen to be used. MOSAIC allows
placement of up to four “global” macro keys across the top of every Device Screen. Also, you may place
additional macros in specific Device Screens using empty locations or by overriding existing key func-
tions.

As an instruction aid, we’ll create an example “Power On” macro that turns on the Cable Box and TV
power and then tunes in a favorite channel in this exact order:

1.

Select the Cable Box and power it on.

2.

Add a 2-second delay.

3.

On the Cable Box, select channel 28.

4.

Select the TV and power it on.

6.

Add a 1-second delay.

7.

On the TV, select channel 3 to view the modulated signal from the Cable Box.

Each command counts as one macro keystroke, except when selecting a device key which counts as
two. In this example, the total keystroke count is eleven.

NOTE: Adding delays allow devices to power up to their full operating state. In most cases, 1 to
2 seconds is sufficient, but MOSAIC will accept up to 8 seconds and only count it as one key-
stroke.
