Harman Kardon Working with Macros A macro is a powerful feature that sends a series of IR commands to your devices. You can create one macro button on your activity screen that performs multiple steps-then you simply press the macro button on the activity screen to send the series of commands to your devices. For example, you may want to turn on your TV, VCR, and A/V receiver at the same time, set the TV to channel 3, and set the VCR to select the channels. To set up a macro: 1 On the Take Control Editor home screen, select Macros. 2 Click Add new macro, type the name of the new macro, and then click OK. 3 Select a device in the Select source list. For example, select your TV or VCR. 4 In the Buttons list, select the appropriate button and drag it to the Macro editor. 5 Repeat steps 3 and 4 to finish building your macro, and then click Done. Notes l When using macros, your devices may require a moment to respond, requiring you to include a short delay between steps. If your device does not respond correctly when you first use a macro, try adjusting the Delay setting, beginning with the lowest setting, and then increasing it, as needed. See the TC1000 Online User's Guide for more information. l You can add about 30 macros.
