5–6 • Operation NK Series User Guide (1.0)
Only one MACRO key is available on the factory default configuration. For implementation of additional MACRO
keys, the NK-IPS is required.
Example 2
To create a macro (Macro2) that sends Input 1 to Outputs 4, 5, 6 and 7 and also sends Input 2 to Outputs 8 and 9 you
would follow this sequence of key presses:
Example 3
To create a macro (Macro3) that sends Input 1 to all Outputs on a 16x16 router, you would follow this sequence:
Appending Macros
Appending macros is a feature that allows the addition of more events (or another macro) to an already existing
macro.
To append a macro, you first need to enter macro recording mode, and then enter macro recording mode again to
append the macro.
1. Hold down the MACRO key for about three seconds. The MACRO key will flash quickly to indicate that the
panel has entered macro recording mode.
2. Release the MACRO key. The MACRO key will flash slowly to indicate that the panel is in macro recording
mode.
3. Hold down the MACRO key again (this will play back the macro internally so that it may be appended). The
MACRO key will flash quickly.
4. Release the MACRO key. The MACRO key will again flash slowly to indicate that the panel is in macro
recording mode.
5. Enter the events you wish to record as you would if you were to activate a switch. Key presses will be
acknowledged by a quick flash on the key you have entered into the macro.
6. When you have finished entering switch events, press the MACRO key to exit macro recording mode.
Key press 1 Key press 2 Key press 3 Key press 4 Key press 5 Key press 6 Key press 7
Key press 8 Key press 9 Key press 10 Key press 11 Key press 12 Key press 13 Key press 14
Key press 1 Key press 2 Key press 3 Key press 4 Key press 5 Key press 6 Key press 7
Follow in this pattern, pressing the next sequential ‘Out’ number and then ‘In1’ until you reach the last
output desired. In this example, the last desired output is ‘Out16’.
