MacroPower
™
is a unique feature that enables you to turn
all of your Components ON or OFF, at the same time, simply
with the press of one button. We call that a “Macro”.
What would normally take multiple remotes and button
pushes, the RF10 can accomplish with the press of one
button. In addition to the Power ON or OFF buttons, any of
the Component buttons can be set to be Macro buttons as
well. Feel the power!
To setup a Power ON macro button that will turn ON several
components at the same time (for example, TV, VCR and
CABLE), follow these easy steps:
STEP 1:
Press and hold both the ON
button and the MUTE buttons at
the same time for approximately
3 seconds, until the word
“MACRO” is displayed on the
LCD screen. This signals that
you are now in MACRO Setup
mode.
IMPORTANT:You now have 30 seconds
to perform the next step while you are
in MACRO mode. If you don’t press a
button within 30 seconds, MACRO will
disappear from the screen, signaling
that you have exited MACRO Setup
mode and you will need to start over.
STEP 2:
Press the first COMPONENT
button you want to turn on
(in this example, TV) and then
confirm the command by
pressing the ON button. Repeat
this step for all the other
components in the order you
want them to turn on (in this
example, VCR followed by
CABLE). The LCD screen
changes to the MACRO step
display for each command.
(NOTE: Whenever a button is pressed, another
Macro step is counted and displayed on the
screen.)
NOTE: Don’t worry about the number of steps.
Each macro button can store up to 50 steps, so
you are not likely to run out of steps!
You can also program delays in between com-
mands by pressing the (II) PAUSE button. Each
press adds half a second to the delay.
STEP 3:
Once you have entered all the
desired Power On commands,
press the CHANNEL ( ) UP
button to save your MacroPower
commands. The RF10 will
respond by flashing “SAVED”
twice, then automatically return
to normal operating mode.
SETTING UP A POWER OFF OR
A COMPONENT BUTTON AS
MACRO:
If you want to program macro
commands for the OFF or one of
the 8 component buttons, in
STEP 1, simply press the button
you want to be a macro instead
of the ON button. For example,
you can setup an AUDIO button
to be a macro by pressing AUD
(Audio) and MUTE for 3 seconds.
Once the screen displays
“MACRO”, press the button with
the command you want. Then
complete and save the Macro
by following STEP 3 as outlined
above.
PROGRAMMING A
“PRESS & HOLD” MACRO:
Another option for macro buttons
is to only send the macro
commands if the button is
pressed and held. This is setup
by entering a delay as the first
step of the macro. The amount of
delay determines how long the
user must press the button
before the macro is sent. The
advantage of this option is that a
normal press of the COMPONENT
button will simply switch
Components without sending the
macro command.
