Programming Macros
Macros enable you to easily repeat frequently
used combinations of commands with the press
of a single button on the remote control. Once
programmed, a macro will send out up to 19
different remote codes in a predetermined
sequential order, enabling you to automate the
process of turning on your system, changing
devices, or other common tasks. The remote can
store up to three separate macro command
sequences: one that is associated with the Power
On Button b, and two more that are
accessed by pressing the Macro Buttons
fg.
The DCR600 remote also features two pre-
programmed functions, ALL OFF uand ALL
ON v, that turn all eight programmed devices
off or on when the appropriate key is pressed.

pressing the button for the actual command
step. Although the macro may contain up to
19 steps, each button press, including those

The Program Indicator will flash to confirm
each button press as you enter commands.

On/Off of any device during a macro sequence,
