chapter 14 macros 169
Caution: Insight 2x does not check the sequence of keystrokes to confirm
that it will work. It is possible to create macros that don’t work. When you
run the macro, you will receive whatever error messages are appropriate.
To avoid problems, you should plan your macro before you start recording
it by determining exactly what keystrokes you want to include . You might
want to do this by running through the task and writing down each key-
stroke.
Next macro
When you press [Enter Macro], the Macro display selects the next
macro. If you wish to begin recording the next macro, press [Enter].
Macro wait
To program a pause in the macro, press [Macro Wait] at the point in the
macro where you want the pause to occur. Enter the time you would like
the macro to hold, then press [Enter]. Continue to enter remaining macro
commands.
Times may be expressed in minutes and seconds, or as fractions of sec-
onds (in decimal format). Times can be programmed from .1 second to
99:59 minutes. Acceptable time values include: .2 (.2 seconds), 00:12 (12
seconds), 5.5 (5.5 seconds), or 5:30 (five minutes, 30 seconds).
