Creating a DSRIQ-SRL module macro
Pressing the Page Down key when the Terminal Applications menu’s Configuration screen is displayed will
provide access to the Macro Configuration screen. The DSRIQ-SRL module can be configured with up to ten
macros. Each macro can be up to 128 characters in length.
To create a macro:
1. Select the DSRIQ-SRL module you wish to configure and press Ctrl-F8 to activate the Terminal
Applications menu’s Configuration screen.
2. When the Terminal Applications menu appears, press Page Down to view the Macro Configuration screen.
The Macro Configuration screen shows the ten available macros and the associated key sequences, if any, for
each.
3. Use the Up Arrow and Down Arrow keys to scroll to an available macro number and highlight the listed
keystroke sequence. Type the new macro keystroke sequence over the default. Any combination of Ctrl or
Alt and a single key may be used. When you have finished entering the keystroke sequence that will
activate the new macro, press the Down Arrow key.
4. On the line below the macro keystroke sequence you just entered, type the keystroke sequence that you
wish the macro to perform.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to configure additional macros.
6. When finished, press Enter to return to the previous screen.
Using History mode
History mode allows you to examine the contents of the history buffer, which contains the events that have
occurred.
The DSRIQ-SRL module maintains a buffer containing 240 lines minimum, or 10 screens, of output. When the
history buffer is full, it will add new lines at the bottom of the buffer and delete the oldest lines at the top of the
buffer.
NOTE: The Config Key Sequence, On-Line Key Sequence and Clear History Key Sequence used in the following procedure are the
default values. These key combinations can be changed using the Terminal Applications menu.
To use History mode:
1. Press Ctrl-F9. The mode will display as History.
2. Press one of the following key combinations to perform the indicated action:
• Home: Move to the top of the buffer.
• End: Move to the bottom of the buffer.
• Page Up: Move up one buffer page.
• Page Down: Move down one buffer page.
• Up Arrow: Move up one buffer line.
• Down Arrow: Move down one buffer line.
• Ctrl-F8: Enters Configuration mode. The Configuration screen will appear.
• Ctrl-F9: While in Configuration mode, returns to the previous screen with History mode enabled.
