Creating and Editing Macros

A macro allows you to send a sequence of commands when tapping one single
button. You can for instance switch on your TV, turn on a movie channel and
prepare your VCR for recording by rewinding the videotape. The macro contains an
action list. The action list can be created and edited in the Macro Tool.
Note
Possible actions you can use in a macro are:
Adding an IR code;
Creating a link to another button;
Adding a delay;
Adding a beep.
