Using Macros
System users can activate macros, which are custom commands for controlling and
operating the system. Up to four macros (A, B, C, D) can be recorded (programmed) locally
using any RISCO keypad except Slim models.
Recording Macros
➢ To record a macro:
1. At the keypad, enter your Grand Master code, and then press OK.
2. Scroll to Macro and then press OK.
3. Scroll to select one of the available (not-yet recorded) macro options -- A, B, C, or D, and
then press OK.
4. Press the macro option you selected in the prior step (A, B, C, or D) for 5 seconds to start
the recording sequence.
5. Enter a sequence of characters according to the following table:
Numerical buttons from 0—9
Macro keys A, B, C, and D
Full ("away") arming button
Partial ("stay" or "home") arming button
6. After you finished entering the series of characters, scroll so that the cursor is located
after the last character in the series, and then press the macro option you had selected in
step 3; the macro is saved.
Activating Macros
➢ To activate a pre-recorded macro:
• On the keypad, press the macro option (A—D) for 2 seconds to activate the
respective macro.
