You can not stop a macro it runs its coarse(unless you click on purge macros and timers)

You need to supply more info:

Your problem could be something as simple as a duplicate trigger, a forgoten transceiver or be complex-ed with several issues(noise, signal suckers) ;)
We really need to see the whole picture what modules,transceivers(how many) are you using, housecodes, triggers,timers.
Even with you suppling the vast amount of info Users will still only be able to Guess at your problem Unless it is an obvious one! ;) :D 
Macro can be triggered many ways but you need a Housecodeunitcode specified for it
if you want to just be able to activate it with a remote or timer, create a dummy(Phantom module) and use it as the trigger info for phantom modules can be found in the links supplied above. A timmer then triggers the phantom module which starts the macro (remember to reset the phantom module back or the next timer won't fire)
In Any case You Have lots of reading to do! ;) :D ;D
