Function Key for the Macro Function
Press the key while the telephone in the idle state to execute a macro. If the H command (hang-up/pick-up with the hook key) is located at the beginning of a macro, the macro saved in the system is run immediately. If this is not the case, you need to first confirm you want the macro function to start.
In addition, you can read the status of the relevant macro on the LED.
 
Note: The commands for controlling LEDs are used on both levels of the keys. This makes it possible, for instance, to use the macro to switch the LED on, on the one key level, and to use the macro to switch LED off on the other key level. In this way the switching status of a different function that is enabled at the same time can be seen on the LED.
 
Proceed as follows by assigning the function key:
Notes:
The function can only be set up on a programmable function key that has an LED (not on a touch function key).
The Macro function fills both key levels. If one level has a macro assigned to it, the other level is also automatically filled with an empty macro.
Both macros can later be processed and executed independently of each other.
If you delete a macro from one key level, the macro is automatically deleted from the other key level.
For further information about the general procedures when assigning function keys, see Function Keys.

Pauses cannot be entered at the beginning of a macro.
The maximum pause time is 5 seconds. This restriction does not apply for the C command (waiting for a connection).
The commands for controlling LEDs are used on both levels of the keys. This makes it possible, for instance, to use the macro to switch the LED on, on the one key level, and to use the macro to switch LED off on the other key level. In this way the switching status of a different function that is enabled at the same time can be seen on the LED.
