Example 4. Macro plays “1+2=3” using the F12 key:
{F12}>{1}{-shift}{=}{+shift}{2}{=}{3}
ADVANCED PROGRAMMING FEATURES FOR MACROS
Several special features can be incorporated into macros. A different action can be produced on the press and on the release
of the key. Also a faster or slower output speed can be selected which will override the Global Macro Playback speed as set
using Program+Pause. Also delays can be programmed within a macro.
Different actions on press and release
Place braces with a single space, { } (not {}) in between the “press” and “release” actions.
Example 1. Press produces F1 function key and release produces F2 function key:
{W}>{F1}{ }{F2}
Example 2. Pressing tab acts just like pressing and holding ctrl-alt-4, and releasing is just like releasing ctrl-alt-4:
{tab}>{ctrl}{alt}{4}{ }{4}{ctrl}{alt}
Macro playback Speed
The Advantage2 supports nine different playback speeds. Macros will automatically playback at the default speed which is
“speed3”. Speed3 was chosen to provide optimal results for the widest array of macros but your custom macros may require
a different speed to achieve the desired results. As such, macros can also be set to play back faster (speed4 - speed9) or
slower (speed1 and speed2). To modify a macro’s playback speed, simply input the desired speed in braces before the
characters/actions whose speed you wish to modify.
Multiple speed modiers can be included in a single
macro.
Speed1 4.2 Characters per Second ~50 Words per Minute
Speed2 8.4 CPS ~100 WPM
Speed3 (Default) 12.5 CPS ~150 WPM
Speed4 22.7 CPS ~270 WPM
Speed5 34.2 CPS ~400 WPM
Speed6 62.5 CPS ~750 WPM
Speed7 84 CPS ~1,000 WPM
Speed8 125 CPS ~1,500 WPM
Speed9 250 CPS ~3,000 WPM
