Example 1. This left pedal macro plays back the phrase "fast & slowly" where the word “slowly” is typed at
the slow speed. The {slow} output command only affects the remainder of the macro in which it is placed. If
you want to speed up output in the same macro after the slow command, insert a {fast} command:
{lpedal}>{-f}{+f}{-a}{+a}{-s}{+s}{-t}{+t}{slow}{-space}{+space}{-shift}{-7}{+7}{+shift}{-space}{+space}{-s}{+s}{-l}{+
l}{-o}{+o}{-w}{+w}{-l}{+l}{-y}{+y}
Note: The above macro “word-wrapped” to the next line. In your pedals.txt file, but sure that there are no
spaces or “Enter” actions embedded unintentionally within the macro contents.
Adding delays to macros
Macros can have one or more internal delays. Both 125 and 500 millisecond (ms) delays are available and
either or both can be combined. To insert a delay, use braces around the delay time: {125} or {500}.
Example 1. Middle pedal macro plays “a” then delays 500 ms, then plays “b”:
{mpedal}>{-a}{+a}{500}{-b}{+b}
Example 2. Middle pedal macro plays “F1” then delays one second (1000 ms), then plays "F2":
{mpedal}>{-F1}{+F2}{500}{500}{-F2}{+F2}
TROUBLESHOOTING
If a pedal is pressed while programming mode is being established, the device may become inactive. If that
happens, it may be necessary to unplug and reconnect the device.
If the red LED is on continuously even though a pedal is not pressed, the unit is not working correctly. Try
unplugging, waiting 30 seconds, then reconnecting the unit.
If incorrect syntax or language is used, the pedal will usually resort to a default action which may differ from
actions shown on page 1. In some cases pressing a pedal that has invalid programming may disable the unit
and cause the red LED come on. If unplugging and reconnecting the unit fixes the problem but pressing a
pedal causes it to re-occur, it is most likely due to an error in the pedals.txt file. In that case, activate
Programming Mode and delete pedals.txt (or cut and paste to a location outside the Active folder). Then
power cycle the device to create a new (default) pedals.txt file. Re-edit the new pedals.txt file as desired.
“DICTIONARY” OF AVAILABLE MOUSE & KEYBOARD ACTIONS & COMMON SHORT MACROS
Numbers and letters are sorted in alphanumeric sequence, while other keys are listed in familiar keyboard
groupings. You can copy/paste from this list directly to your pedals.txt file (just remember to change [ ] to { }
if you are pasting to create a macro).
Note: The text shown below must be copy/pasted or typed (inside square brackets) into the “Assigned
Actions” section of the pedals.txt file. For example, use [pdown] for the “Page Down” key and [down] for the
“Down” arrow key.
[lmouse] Left mouse button click
[mmouse] Middle mouse button click
[rmouse] Right mouse button click
Double click See macros, Mouse double click
[escape]
[F1] Function keys, F1 through F12
[F2]
[F3]
