Example with standard macros:
Unit codes:
B10: Stair
B11: Room1
B12: Room2
Macros:
B13 controls B10, B11
B14 controls B10, B12
B15 controls B10, B11, B12
It is easy to set up the above macros, but a minor problem is that when you press B13, B14, or B15, you must wait five or more seconds to see if the macro works.
Example with macros using unit codes:
Unit codes:
B11: Room1
B12: Room2
B13: Stair
Macros:
B11 controls B13 (as well as B11)
B12 controls B13 (as well as B12)
B13 controls B11 and B12 (as well as B13)
Two great advantages:
1: You use only three unit codes instead of six as above.
2: Response of macro is (almost) instantaneous! No need to wait five or more seconds to see whether a macro is working.
Note: If you press macro B11 on/off, then Room1 (B11) is instantaneously on/off, so you know that the macro is working. You must still Wait for stair (B13) to be on/off five or more seconds.
Active Home will not allow you to create a macro using a unit code.
I will explain a procedure in the next message.
