5.5.3.15 USING MACROS
The macro feature of the Network Management Software will enable a user to make multiple settings
on several cards for a specific network. To play a macro the user simply hits the PLAY icon on the
main screen (or selects PLAY from the MACROS menu under SETUP). The user then selects the
macro by name and it runs. You can only run macros in Real Time mode. To set up macros (a feature
that will be used only by RFL or advance users) perform the following steps:
1. Go into Real Time mode.
2. Start macro recording: From SETUP select MACROS and then RECORD.
3. Give the macro a name, up to twenty characters (including spaces) are allowed.
4. Make the required settings. Each setting will be recorded.
5. At any time you can pause and then resume the recording, use the options in the
MACRO menu under SETUP.
6. At the conclusion of recording, select the STOP RECORDING option from the
MACRO MENU.
7. You can edit the macro, including merging two macros together by selecting the EDIT
option under MACROS.
To merge two macros, edit the second one, and copy the commands, then edit the first macro and paste
the commands at the end.
There is a MACRO button on the View or Change Card screen that allows you to start recording a
macro, stop it, or pause/resume it. You can not play a macro from this screen. Also, after recording a
macro you can remove some redundant lines (caused by Pn=settings that repeat over and over). Also,
you can add comments to the macro by adding a /* */ at the end of any line. For example, you can
have a macro line that reads:
1:TERM:SET:EQPT-LB=OFF; /* Turn Equip off */
5.5.3.16 EMERGENCY EXIT
The Network Management Software has an Emergency Exit key sequence. If for some reason the user
gets “stuck” or a screen freezes, hit <CTRL> <PgDn> then X, and the NMS session will terminate.
