USING MACROS
The RadioShack 8-in-One Remote includes six
macro keys: M1 through M4, COM MUTE,and
PWR. Each one can be set up to perform a
repetitive, time-consuming operation with the
press of a single key.
NOTE: A macro programmed onto the PWR key can
only be accessed in the MY SYSTEM mode. Pressing it
in any other mode will only send a “Power On/Off”
IR command to the selected device.
NOTE:The COM MUTE key can be programmed as a
two-state rotating macro. See “Programming The COM
MUTE Key” on the next page.
A macro can be used to control a home theater
operation, to set a favorite channel, or for other
multiple functions you would like to control
with one key press. Moreover, each macro key
can hold up to 15 key presses total.
NOTE: Programming a new macro over an existing
one will erase the original macro.
PROGRAMMING A FAVORITE CHANNEL MACRO
With so many channels available on your cable
or satellite system, you can program a macro
that directly selects a favorite channel with one
key press.
For example, let’s assume your favorite cable
programs are on channel 71. Use the following
instructions to program a macro for direct access
of this channel:
NOTE: The following example assumes all equipment
is turned off and that the TV is connected through the
Cable Box with TV tuning set to channel 3.
1. Press and hold P until the bottom IR segment
flashes twice. The program keys will appear:
2. Press MACRO once. The Macro programming
screen will appear:
3. Press an open macro key (e.g.,M1, M2, M3,
or M4). The last-selected device menu screen,
including ,will be displayed.
4. Enter a desired macro sequence of up to 15
key presses. For this example, press TV once,
followed by PWR once, and then enter 0 3 for
the TV’s channel number. Next, press CBL
once, followed by PWR once, and then enter
0 7 1 for the Cable Box’s channel number.
NOTE: If there are more than 15 key presses in the
sequence, the bottom IR segment will display a long
flash, denoting an error. The display will return to
the last-selected device menu screen. To program the
macro, start again with step 3.
5. To save the macro, press and hold P until
the bottom IR segment flashes twice. The
program keys will appear again.
6. Exit programming by pressing once.The
display will return to the last-selected device
menu screen
.
7. Now, if you aim the remote at the devices
selected in step 4 and press the programmed
macro key once, the TV will turn on and tune
to channel 3.Then, the Cable Box will turn on
and tune to channel 071.
