ARENA DM CONTROL SURFACE

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

3.2.5. “Macro Configuration“ display. Load and activation of programmable keys.

Macro files contain the definition of assigned functions for the programmable keys. Due to the

complexity involved in programming macro functions (IP address, protocols, timers, etc.),

programming cannot be done from the surface control, but must be done from the

configuration software.

Work with macro files is therefore limited to loading and activating the respective keys

configuration. Bearing in mind the fact that there are 32 programmable keys, the macro file may

not have all of the keys defined. In this case, the keys that are not defined will be able to

maintain their previous configuration or be forced to “Empty“ (they will not perform any action).

To access to “Macro Configuration“ option, from the main screen press under the “MACRO

CONFIG” label (pushbutton P3). Then a screen will appear, as shown on the upper left figure,

showing a list of the macros defined by means of the configuration software. To select the

desired option the usual procedure must be followed. Using the lower encoder labeled

“SCROLL” select the desired macro. Once the macro is selected (it appears highlighted on the

list), press the encoder (“SELECT NEW”). The selected macro label appears in the “New

Selected” area. Press “LOAD SELECTN.” to load the new macro A confirmation screen will

appear: press “YES” to load the new macro or “CANCEL” to abort the loading process
