Title: Newbie with a simple question on leaving PC running
Post by: MikeyB on December 07, 2009, 03:23:14 PM

I am considering buying Smart Macros for AHP.

If I design macros with conditions, can I load them into the controller, switch off the PC and have my macros run with conditions. I really do not want to leave my PC running 24/7.

Yes you can. That's just how I work Mine and when I turn on my laptop I can run things from it also.  because my controller is behind the end table with a 15 foot usb cable run right next to my power cable.

I'll take the plunge and see what happens. ;)

You didn't get Smart Macros as part of a package deal for AHP?

Hi Brian H,

I just got the basic AHP package with a CFM15. Are there some deals around for the SmartMacros?
