6. The next display (Figure 82) and the
subsequent screens are where the
actual macro programming takes
place. The words at the left side of
the top line of the display show the
button that is being programmed
(e.g., one of the

) and the indication at the right
side of the top line shows the number
of macro steps available of 20 possi-
ble steps. Following the instructions
on the remote’s LCD screen, press the
first key you wish to be transmitted in
the macro. In our example, we first
want the CVR700 to turn on, so the
Power Button

should be
pressed.

As each button is pressed to enter it
into the macro, you will see the but-

on the LCD display as your confirma-
tion of the key entry (Figure 83).

have been entered, press the
Set

to save the macro. The
display screen will show the button
to which the macro has been pro
-
grammed and the number of steps
used, and the word
SAVED will blink
four times in the lower line of the
LCD display. When the display returns
to normal, the macro has been
entered and the remote is ready for
operation.

steps appear in the remote’s LCD dis-
play. Macros programmed into one of
the four discrete Macro buttons may
be activated at any time by pressing
the appropriate button.
Preprogrammed Macros
Several macro-type commands have been
preprogrammed into the remote, and they
may be activated not by pressing one of
the
Macro Buttons X, but rather by
pressing and holding certain other but-
tons as described below:

Power On
1 or Power Off 0 buttons will
execute the Power On (All) or Power
Off (All) commands to either turn on
or turn off all devices whose product
codes have been programmed into the
remote. Note that if you are not using
any external devices, you may simply
power on the CVR700, and the CVPD50
screen will automatically be triggered
to turn on as well.
