macro fires macro?
« on: January 13, 2010, 09:20:20 PM »

I have not gotten my AHP hardware yet, but I have been playing around with the AHP software. I have a basic question, will a macro trigger another macro? For example, in the two following macros if I execute an "A7 ON" via remote, which will trigger the "Floodcam remote redirect" macro, will it in turn fire the "Floodcam auto off" macro?

Macro Name:
   Floodcam remote redirect

Trigger & Conditions:
   A7 ON  (dummy module)

Actions:
   A15 ON (floodcam)
___________________
Macro Name:
   Floodcam auto off

Trigger & Conditions:
   A15 ON

Actions:
   WAIT for 5 minutes
   A15 OFF (floodcam)

If it does, then I suppose I could set a flag to prevent the Floodcam from being turned off 5 minutes after being turned on via remote, or is there an option to prevent one macro from triggering another? The thing is if I turn on the floodcam by remote, I don't want it to turnoff until it is manually turned off. That leads to another question, can flags be stored in the interface, or have to be run from a PC? I'm writing these macros because every once in a while the floodlights will get "stuck on" during the day.

Thanks,

Rich
