Status Messages for Impatient Clients with Long Macros  

For clients who have problems waiting for long macros to finish, it is helpful to
design the system to give a dramatic status message while the macro is working,
otherwise they may put the remote down in the middle of the macro, frustrating
themselves. This is possible for a system with UP TO 10 DEVICES. Here’s how
to do it:

1 Move all of the devices with their IR programming to MAIN Page 2. Just drag and drop them using Create

and Move Devices (Program Menu #1).

2 Now, create new devices on MAIN Page 1. Duplicate the exact order of MAIN Page 2.

3 Use LCD Button Editor to label page 1 of each of the first ten devices (the ones on MAIN Page 1 without

IR codes) with a message that will be visible as long as the macro is working:
