What are macros?
Macros are a string of commands that you create to perform complex actions with the touch of a single. You may need to have twenty IR commands sent to power on all of the devices in your system, just by pressing one button. You would create a series of macros to make it muck easier to operate your system. A common example of a macro is one that is based around an activity, like “Watch a DVD movie” You can easily develop macros that will allow you to have one touch control over specific devices as well. The memory power of your MX-800 allows each button to include a 190 step macro. You can read the section about macros in the MX Editor Programming Manual or watch the movie about macros in the MX Editor Tutorial. We feature a section in the MX Editor Programming manual that addresses the subject of long macros and offers some suggestions.
