Macros
Overview
The term “macro” refers to the function whereby a sequence of signal
selections and other operations on the control panel is saved as data in memory,
so that it can be recalled as required to automatically execute the same
sequence of operations.
To record menu operations in memory, use a menu macro (see page 222).
For details of macro operations, see “Macros” in Chapter 18 (Volume 2).
Macro registers
The area of memory that holds a macro is termed a “macro register.” For each
control panel there are 99 macro registers, numbered 1 to 99.
Events
The individual control panel operations constituting a macro are termed
“events.” One macro can contain a maximum of 99 events.
The following table shows the operations for each control block of the control
panel that can be saved as events in a macro.
