Executing a macro assigned to a button
1
Press the [MCRO ATTCH ENBL] button assigned to a utility/shotbox
control block button or user preference button, turning it on.
2
Press the desired button for which a macro attachment has been set.
This recalls the macro register assigned to the button, and the macro is
executed as follows, according to the operation mode.
Pre macro mode: The macro is executed first, and then the button
function is executed.
Post macro mode: The button function is executed first, and then the
macro is executed.
Macro only mode: The button function is not executed, and the macro
only is executed.
During macro execution, the button you pressed flashes.
Notes
• It is not possible to execute more than one macro at a time. Therefore, even
if you simultaneously press multiple buttons for which macro attachments
are set, only one macro is executed.
• During macro execution, recalling the same register again stops the macro
being executed. Therefore, pressing twice a button for which a macro
attachment is set stops the macro being executed.
• Individual events stored in a macro are executed according to the settings in
setup. If you change the settings in setup, a saved macro may not have the
expected effect.
• During macro execution, if you switch the control panel to macro editing
mode, the macro being executed stops.
• During macro editing, pressing a button for which a macro attachment is set
does not execute the macro.
To disable macro attachment settings
Press the [MCRO ATTCH ENBL] button assigned to a utility/shotbox control
block button or user preference button, turning it off.
In this state, pressing a button for which a macro attachment is set does not
execute the macro.
