&amp;lt;/td&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/table&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Macro buttons can be setup to perform repetitive, time-consuming operation for easy, convenient access through the press of a single key.  Macro buttons are ideal for home theater operations, setting a favorite channel, guide steps or other multiple functions you would like to control with one button.  Each Macro key can hold up to 15 key presses.  Macros cannot be nested in an unextended remote.  That means you cannot have a macro call another macro in the middle of its key press sequence.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
   &lt;br /&gt;
You can include device keys in your macros.  They device key will change the active device, so that subsequent button presses will come from that new device.  &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
   &lt;br /&gt;
Macros can be placed on most buttons.  You usually need an extender if you want to put a macro on a device button, although a few rare remotes, like the URC-10820N, do allow macros on device buttons.  Macros are modeless, they are active for ALL device modes.  &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
A macro is just a sequence of button presses.  Each button press uses the active device mode at that moment in time.  &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
   &lt;br /&gt;
Macros can be programmed without IR, via the SET 995 command, but they are much easier with IR.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:IRHelpChp2Macro.jpg]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
   &lt;br /&gt;
1) From the macro tab screen select [Add]&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
2) Select the key that you want the macro key to be bound to.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
3) Build your macro from the list of available keys, by highlighting the key in the left column and pressing [Add], [Add Shift]; [Insert] or [Ins Shift]. &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
   &lt;br /&gt;
As was described in chapter 1, most remotes can have 2 functions assigned to a button, a plain key press, and a shifted key press.  With some extenders you can have 3 functions associated with a button, a plain key press, a shifted key press, and an xshifted key press. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You get to the second function by pressing your shifting key before you press the key to be shifted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you are using a shifted key inside a macro, you use the [Add Shift]/ or [Ins Shift], instead of inserting two key presses.  This saves key memory and gives you more reliable results.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
