4. Summary of Operations C. Learning From Other Remote Controls The MX-600 can learn codes from your original remote controls. There are 26 LCD screens in the MX-600. Each screen (page) has ten function buttons, including the ten device buttons on the main menu screen that can be taught. In addition, there are 31 buttons and a joystick (thumbpad) that can be taught for each of the ten devices. You can teach up to 530 new functions into the remote control. Please refer to page 19 in this instruction manual for details. D. Macro Operations A "macro" is a series of commands that you choose to be sent out with the push of one button. Any function available on your original remote control or in the preprogrammed database can be added to a macro to completely automate what you would normally do by pushing buttons one at a time. It can be as simple as turning on your TV and Cable Box, turning the TV to the appropriate channel for operation with the Cable Box, and changing the Cable Box channel to your favorite morning news. A macro can be configured to Power On your TV, DVD player and receiver, change to the appropriate inputs and outputs, dim your lights and start a movie. It can be as simple or as comprehensive as you want. There are two types of macro buttons you can use for macro operations: M1, M2, M3, POWER ON and POWER OFF Buttons The M1, M2, and M3 are called "system-wide" buttons because they send out the same signal no matter what device you are currently controlling.

D. Macro Operations
A “macro” is a series of commands that you choose to be
sent out with the push of one button. Any function
available on your original remote control or in the
preprogrammed database can be added to a macro to
completely automate what you would normally do by
pushing buttons one at a time. It can be as simple as
turning on your TV and Cable Box, turning the TV to the
appropriate channel for operation with the Cable Box, and
changing the Cable Box channel to your favorite morning
news. A macro can be configured to Power On your TV,
DVD player and receiver, change to the appropriate inputs
and outputs, dim your lights and start a movie. It can be as
simple or as comprehensive as you want.
There are two types of macro buttons you can use for
macro operations:
M1, M2, M3, POWER ON and POWER OFF Buttons
The M1, M2, and M3 are called “system-wide” buttons
because they send out the same signal no matter what
device you are currently controlling.
