keystroke sequence that will activate the new macro, press the
Down Arrow key.

that you wish the macro to perform.

Using History mode
History mode allows you to examine the contents of the history buffer, which contains the events
that have occurred.
The AVRIQ-SRL module maintains a buffer containing 240 lines minimum, or 10 screens, of
output. When the history buffer is full, it will add new lines at the bottom of the buffer and delete
the oldest lines at the top of the buffer.
NOTE: The Config Key Sequence, On-Line Key Sequence and Clear History Key Sequence used in the
following procedure are the default values. These key combinations can be changed using the Terminal
Applications menu.
