Marantz RC2000MKII - Programming Macros Under Function Buttons; Using Programmed Macros

2827
Using the macro function(s) you have
programmed:
1.
Press the desired MACRO y button. The
corresponding macro number will appear at the
bottom of the display window, OR if a macro has been
programmed under a function button, press once then
immediately press and hold that function button for
more than 3 seconds.
The LCD display window will
indicate the macro number in the
LCD window (see Figure 13), or if a
macro is programmed under a
function key, the status line will
display the macro under function
buttons as follows:
2. The macro sequence will begin, and the remote control
codes will be sent from the RC2000 Mk w and the
display will show the names of the transmitted codes.
If you program a macro longer than 20 steps, where it
is programmed through MACRO 1 and MACRO 2,
MACRO 1 has to be pressed for the macro to transmit.
Pressing MACRO 2 will not have any effect.
3. When the macro transmit sequence has ended, the
RC2000 Mk w will return to the same mode as before
the macro function was initiated.
Now that we’ve explained how to program a
macro, perhaps the following suggested
example could help you become more familiar
with the process:
 Switch the receiver of preamp to CD
 Initiate CD playback
 Go to track No. 3 on the CD
Programming a macro under a function selector
button:
If you wish, you can also program a macro that can be
activated by pressing one of the function selector o
button. The programming steps are similar to the steps
outlined for programming a macro number button y. The
following example shows how to program a macro under
the LD (laser disc) function selector o:
 Turn on the amprifier
 Switch the source to laser disc
 Switch the amplifier’s surround mode to THX
 Turn on the television
 Switch to the television’s AUX video input
 Turn on the laser disc player
 Begin laser disc playback
1. Press the MACRO w operation
mode button with a pen tip.
2. Press the LD function button o.
3. Press the following buttons:
POWER ON, LD, AMP, direct function D-5 on page x
(THX mode selector), TV*, SOURCE ON, direct
function D-4 on page z (VIDEO input selector), LD*,
SOURCE ON, and PLAY.
4. Press the MACRO w button with the pen tip. The
RC2000 Mk w will revert to the normal mode and save
the macro under the LD function button.
5. To execute the new macro sequence, press once then
immediately press and hold again the LD function
selector button for more than 3 seconds.
