Principles of Macro Attachment
Macros can be recalled manually via the macro bus row (Keyer row in Pro-
gram/ Preset) and via the sidepanel. A more sophisticated way is to recall
a macro automatically when you press any other button on the panel. Since
a normal button has its own function, you can attach a macro which is exe-
cuted BEFORE the actual function (pre-macro) and/or a macro which is
executed AFTER the actual function (post-macro).
The macros are not attached to the physical buttons, but to the logical but-
tons. That means, when you attach a macro to the first button in the AUX
bus row while the AUX bus delegation is on AUX bus 5 and second page is
selected, this macro is only fired at the button press for this special setting.
Available panel types:
Automatically selects the connected panel type.
Figure 484. Macro Attachment Available Panel Types
Note
The buttons are dependent to the connected panel type (Kayak panel types,
XtenDD/DD35 panel types)!
Center Position:
Centers the display and the cursor
Previous Deleg.:
Toggles the info display backwards through the different
delegations. Only enabled for buttons with more delega-
tion levels (e.g. AUX bus row buttons, Keyer section but-
tons).
Next Deleg.:
Toggles the info display forwards through the different
delegations. Only enabled for buttons with more delega-
tion levels (e.g. AUX bus row buttons, keyer section but-
tons, wipe selection buttons).
CP-Type:
The default panel type to display is of course the actual
panel type. You can select all other panel types in case
you want to export your application to another type of
panel. Since panels differ in button layout some button of
type A may not exist on panel type B. Macro attached to
this buttons will be shown as “not decoded macros” for
panel type B.
