CUSTOMIZING MacroPower™ Setup 29 Advanced Macro Options: SETTING UP A POWER OFF MACRO: Simply follow the same steps as outlined above, except press the OFF button in place of the ON button. SETTING A COMPONENT BUTTON AS MACRO: If you wish to set one of the Component buttons as a macro, in STEP 3, press the Page Up button twice. The top of the display will change to MAIN, and you can navigate to MAIN page 1 or page 2. Press the Component button you want to set as a Macro button. The top of the screen will display the button label you selected. Select the Component and Page that has a button you want in your Macro using the MAIN, Component and Page buttons. Simply press the button(s) with the command(s) you want in your Macro. Then complete and save the Macro by following STEPs 12 and 13 as outlined above. PROGRAMMING A "PRESS & HOLD" MACRO: Another option for Component button macros is to only send the macro if the button is pressed and held. This is setup by entering a delay as the first step of the macro. The amount of delay determines how long the user must press the button before the macro is sent. The advantage of this option is that a normal press of the COMPONENT button will simply switch Components without sending the macro command. SimpleSound Setup & Other 'Punch Throughs' 30 SimpleSound™ Setup & Other 'Punch Throughs' SimpleSound™ is a dynamic feature that gives you total volume control over all the Components in your system, even those without their own built-in volume control, such as TiVo, DVD and VCR... saving you the hassle and inconvenience of constantly needing to switch between Component modes on the remote. With SimpleSound™, you can set the RF20's volume control buttons to always control the sound in your system, even when you're in VCR or DVD mode, without switching back to AUDIO or TV. Even more exciting, SimpleSound™ is what is called a 'Punch Through' feature and is not limited strictly to volume control. Click and enjoy! STEP 1: In a basic home entertainment system, the sound may come from your TV. In a more advanced system, the sound may come from your audio Component such as a Surround Sound Receiver or Home Theatre system. So, first, you need to identify which Component you want to use in your system for sound. STEP 2: Press and hold the MAIN and ENT (Enter) buttons at the same time for approximately 3 seconds, until the word "SETUP" is displayed at the top of the LCD screen. This signals that you are now in setup mode. IMPORTANT:You now have 30 seconds to perform the next step while you are in SETUP mode. If you don't press a button within 30 seconds, SETUP will disappear from the screen, signaling that you have exited setup mode and you will need to start over. STEP 3: Press the PAGE ( ) UP button to display Page 2 of the Setup Menu on the LCD screen. Press the PUNCH display button. STEP 4: Then press the VOL (Volume) display button. The screen will display "VOL" at the top. This sets up the group of three buttons (Volume Up, Volume Down and Mute) in one action! VOLUME BUTTON CUSTOMIZING
