{Loop Begin} - inserts a start command for a loop with a limited number of iterations. An
infinite loop is assigned when you use “0” for the iterations.
{Loop End} - inserts a loop end command.
{Wait} - inserts a pause for a period of time. This needs to be followed with a whole
number of seconds.
{Delete} - removes commands from the macro.
{Wait for Entr} - inserts a pause in the macro that waits for the [Enter] key. Pressing
[Enter]will resume the macro.
{Wait for Input} - inserts a pause in the macro to allow you to enter data. The pause lasts
until you press the [Macro] key again. Then the remainder of the macro will be
completed.
{Done} - exits macro edit mode. You may also use the [Learn] key to enter and exit edit
mode.
In edit mode, the cursor in the macro content detail section of the display provides use of the
arrow keys to navigate through the existing content list. Use of the arrow keys will not be
stored to the macro content.
To add content, place the cursor in the section that you want to insert, then add the
command. To delete a command, place the cursor ahead of the content to be deleted, then
press the {Delete} softkey.
Press [Select] when you have completed all editing. Press [Escape] to abort.
Note:
Macros for options with a toggle action between enable and disable, such as
AutoMark in setup, can use the {Enable} and {Disable} softkeys for creating absolute
actions instead of toggles.
Play a Macro
You can play a macro from the command line, from the direct selects, run it from a linked cue,
or from another macro.
To play macro 5 from the command line press [Macro] [5] [Enter]. “Running Macro 5” displays
above the command line in live while the macro is running.
To run macro 5 from the macro direct selects simply press {Macro 5}. “Running Macro 5”
displays above the command line in live while the macro is running.
To run macro 5 from cue 1 press:
[Cue] [1] {Execute} [Macro] [5] [Enter]
If you would like to run multiple macros from cue 1, press:
[Cue] [1] {Execute} [Macro] [6] [Enter]
[Cue] [1] {Execute} [Macro] [7] [Enter]
Each macro has to be entered individually. The previous example would result in macros 5
through 7 being executed from cue 1.
To run a macro from another macro, see the example under
Create a New Macro from the
Display (on the previous page)
.
Stop a Macro
If you need to stop a Macro while running (for example, during an infinite loop) you may press
[Escape] and the macro will stop.
