13.12.2 EXECUTING A MACRO.
To execute a previously created macro, press "F2-E" from anywhere on the Braille
Sense. You are prompted for the macro name, and the last macro you created is
automatically displayed. Type the macro name and press "Enter". The unit
announces, "Executing macro, please wait,,,". The macro takes several seconds
to execute as it must perform all the functions you previously recorded. When the
macro is finished running, you are placed in the position you would normally be
placed in if you had performed the functions manually. For example, if you set a
macro to open your e-mail and check for new mail, when it has finished executing,
you are placed in your inbox with the focus on the first unread message.
You may also create a macro to define a task you wish to perform multiple times.
You can set the macro to repeat any number of times from the “Execute Macro”
dialog. After pressing “F2-E”, press “Space-4” to navigate to the “Repeat” edit box,
and type the number of times you wish for the macro to repeat. The repeat count
is remembered until you change it again or reset the unit.
13.12.3 THE MACRO MANAGER
The "Macro Manager" allows you to execute and manage macros you have
previously created. It is located in the "Utilities" menu, just above the "Upgrade"
option. Navigate to "Macro Manager" and press "Enter". You can also open the
"Macro Manager" from anywhere on the unit using "F2-L".
The "Macro Manager" dialog contains: Macro Name List, “Repeat Macro”, "Delete
Macro", "Rename Macro", "Execute Macro", “Import Macro”, “Export Macro”, and
a "Close" button.
The Macro Name List is a list of all the macros you have created. To execute a
macro, press "Enter" on the macro name, or Tab to "Execute Macro" and press
"Enter". As previously described, you can also execute a macro from anywhere
