Macros (sequence of commands)
Macros (direct)
You can program your KAMELEON 3 to issue a sequence of commands at the
press of one button. For example, you may want to turn off your TV, VCR and
DVD at the same time. Any sequence of commands you regularly use can be
reduced to one key stroke for your convenience. A key that is programmed with
a Macro works through all modes (provided it’s accessible in that mode). You can
install a Macro on any key, except for the device keys (TV, VCR, DVD), the MAGIC
key and the SCROLL key.
Example: To set up a Macro
that switches off your TV, VCR and DVD on the
“16:9” key on your KAMELEON 3:
1. Press TV.
2. Press and hold MAGIC until the rabbit comes out of the hat.
3. Press 9 9 5.
4. Then press the key to which the Macro will be assigned, in this case the
“16:9” key.
5. Next press TV, POWER, VCR, POWER, DVD, POWER.
6. To store the Macro, press and hold MAGIC until you get two blinks on
the IR Indicator and the rabbit disappears.
Result: Whenever you press the “16:9” key, the KAMELEON 3 will turn off your
TV, VCR and DVD.
- Each MACRO can consist of a maximum of 15 keystrokes.
- To include a function from a particular screen in a mode, use the SCROLL
key.
- Make sure that you program a Macro on a spare key that you don’t use in
any mode.
- Once you program a Macro on a specific key, the sequence will work
regardless of the mode (TV, VCR or DVD) you are using provided the key is
visible. This means that the function picked on that specific key will be
sacrificed.
- To avoid accidental recordings with the KAMELEON 3, you must press the
RECORD key twice to begin recording. Please note that if you assign a
Macro or Shifted Macro on the RECORD key this will deactivate the double
key press. Therefore we recommend not to assign a Macro to this key.
- If you had to hold down a key for a few seconds on the original remote
control to get a function, this function may not work in a macro on your
KAMELEON 3 remote.
- Upon changing the batteries your Macros will be retained.
- If you program a Macro on a key, the original function will become shifted
(excluding POWER, CH+/- and VOL+/- keys). Press MAGIC then the key to
access it. If you place a Macro on a digit key, access the original function by
pressing MAGIC twice and then the digit key.
- You can replace a Macro by placing another Macro on top.
