COPY A COMMAND FROM ANOTHER KEY
You may copy a command from any HTR 3 key to any other.
To copy a key function, after entering the Learning Mode, and
pressing the desired key to be copied to, simply press the
device key from which you wish to copy, having rst pressed
its DEVICE SELECTOR key if it resides on another “page.” The
status LED will turn green; press the DEVICE SELECTOR key
again to exit Learning Mode.
Example: Copy the Pause command from the CD page to the
AMP [ ] button:
• On the HTR 3, simultaneously press-and-hold [AMP] and
[RES]; the Learn LED turns steady green.
• Press Pause [ ] ; the Learn LED turns amber.
• Press [CD]; press Pause [ ] ; the Learn LED turns green.
• Press [AMP] again to exit the learning mode.
NOTE
The copy and punch-through functions are similar.
However, if you copy a command and then subsequently
delete, or over-write the original (source-key) command ,
the copied-to key’s command remains unchanged. If you
punch-through to a command and then delete or over-
write the original key, the punched-through functions also
change accordingly.
MACRO COMMANDS
A “macro” command is a series of two or more remote codes
issued automatically from a single keypress. You might use
a macro to automate a simple command sequence, such
as, “Turn on the DVD player and then press ‘play.’” Or you
might compose an elaborate macro to power up an entire
system, select a source, choose a Listening Mode, and begin
playback—again, all from a single keypress. The HTR 3 can
store one macro on each of its function keys (these exclude the
DEVICE SELECTOR keys).
NOTE
Macros are independent of the currently selected device.
RECORDING MACROS
To record a macro, simultaneously press-and-hold for 3
seconds both the [MACRO] key and the HTR 3 function key to
which you wish to assign the macro, until the status LED turns
green. The macro button will also light up.
Press the sequence of function keys to be recorded into the
macro, being sure to rst press the requisite DEVICE SELECTOR
key for each function (you may switch devices while recording
the macro as many times as necessary), allowing you to create
macro containing commands from more than one DEVICE
SELECTOR “page.”
When you have nished entering the desired command
sequence, press [MACRO] again to store the macro; the Learn
LED and [MACRO] key illumination will turn o.
NOTE
Each macro can store a maximum of 64 command
steps. If you exceed this number, the macro will be stored
automatically after the 64th command is added.
