Programming Macros on the RCA RCR815 Universal Remote Control

Your universal remote’s Macro feature allows you to execute a sequence of
commands with one keypress. Any sequence of commands that you regularly
perform can be stored as a Macro under one of the six numbered MACRO keys.
A total of 20 keypress commands can be stored under each of the six available
MACRO keys (number keys 1-6). The commands within a Macro must be
programmed in sequential order. A delay of 0.5 seconds is used between
sending each command in a programmed Macro sequence. You cannot
program a Macro within a Macro.
Program a Macro
To program a Macro, follow these steps:
1. Program the remote to control your brand of components first. Complete all
of the key learning associated with your original remotes.
2. Press and hold the MACRO key for 3 seconds.
3. Release the MACRO key. If the illuminated ON·OFF key turns on and
remains on, the Macro Programming mode is active.
Note: To abort the Macro programming process at any time, press and release the CLEAR
key. The illuminated ON·OFF key blinks four times, then turns off. No changes are made
to existing Macros.
4. Press and release the MACRO DIGIT key (number keys 1-6) under which
the Macro is to be stored. The illuminated ON·OFF key blinks once, then
remains on.
Note: If no MACRO DIGIT key is pressed within 15 seconds or if a MACRO DIGIT key
that has previously been programmed is pressed, the illuminated ON·OFF key blinks
four times and turns off. The programming mode is aborted and no changes are made to
existing Macros.
5. Press and release the desired component key to begin programming the
Macro sequence. An AUX key can be included in a Macro sequence, using
its current programmed code. The illuminated ON·OFF key blinks once and
remains on.
6. Press and release the keys to be assigned to the Macro. Keys must be
pressed in the exact order they are to be executed. If a key is pressed that
contains a Learned function, the Learned key data is assigned to the Macro
sequence. The illuminated ON·OFF key blinks each time a key is pressed.
Continue this process for all keys to be included in the Macro sequence
under the given component mode.
7. Repeat steps 5-6 for the next component mode to be included in the Macro
sequence.
8. Once you are finished programming the Macro, press and release the
MACRO key to save. The illuminated ON·OFF key turns off and the Macro
is now complete.
9. If you program all 20 keys into a Macro, the Macro is automatically saved
after the 20th keypress
