Type in Section Title

True Mode If the “True Mode”radio button is selected, the macro will be issued every time the button is

pressed.

In this Variable example, the TV takes fives seconds to warm up before it can receive an IR command to

change the input. I want the “TV Power ON” button to contain the “Variable”, so I only have to enter once,

Any time “alias” (see explanation below) the “TV Power ON” button, the Variable automatically comes with it,

so if for some reason I have to change the delay from five seconds to six seconds, I only have to change it in

one macro, not in every macro that uses the “TV Power ON” button.

Note: At the end of the macro I’ve added the variable statement: (TV Power ON is now TRUE).

The next time the TV Power On is aliased, it will not wait five seconds because it now knows the TV is already

ON.

What is an Alias?

An alias is a macro step that in one step, points to an entire macro programmed in another button.

If only one command is programmed in the other button, then the macro step will only perform that com-

mand. However, if the other button has multiple macro steps, the entire macro will be played back as one step

in the new macro. Thus, the Alias feature not only saves memory (since it is not copying the IR commands,

only pointing to them), but enables you to program macros nested inside other macros. See advanced pro-

gramming on page 60 for some examples.

Recording Macro Steps

In the Simulator, click on the button that you want to contain the macro. Click on the “Record” icon in the

Macro window toolbar to start the recording session. Next, click on the buttons you wish to add to the macro;

TV Power On, Receiver Power On, TV input, Receiver Input etc.. When the macro is complete, click on the

“Stop” icon to end the recording session.

Recording Other Types of Macro Steps

For any other kind of macro step (other than Aliases), you do not have to click on record. Simply select an IR

command from the IR Navigator or a sound from the Sound Gallery and drag them into the Macro window.

Re-Arranging the Macro Step Order

You can drag any macro step to a new position by clicking, holding down the left mouse button and dragging

it up or down the list.

Deleting a Macro Step

You can delete a macro step by selecting it first, then hitting the “Delete” key on your keyboard or by clicking

on the Delete shortcut icon in the Macro window toolbar.

Tip - You can resize the Macro window by simply clicking and dragging the top of the

window.
