I have looked and can't find the answer. Is there a way to cancel a running macro or string of commands after pressing a button on the Pronto?

Thanks.

Pressing the macro button again, after the macro is running, should cancel it.

had jim said "Press the macro button again, after the macro has run", your correction would be valid.

however, since he used the present tense "is running", no correction is needed.

your correction, also is correct.......just not necessary, as jim's response was correct to begin with (in a grammatical sort of way........i have no idea whether the advice itself is correct, as none of my macros are long enough to be cancelled - my fingers aren't that quick).

Shit, now I'm confused. The only thing I know for sure is Star needs a longer macro ;-)

I agree with you on that one Jim.

However, watch that freaken mouth(fingers) of your's.

Though that Star needs longer macros. I NEED a receiver. Im just glad that my main speakers come with a built in powered subs. Because I am "pushing" them with a desktop stereo. Which is rated at 30watts. At least I think it's 30, not sure if its per or added.

Who is King?????

Jim, please call me Rob. You should know it by now.

And no. I never did get a new receiver. I was shopping around for one. Because I was about to get a credit card that I had to pay for. But they kept on cashing the check in at times that I didn't want it to go through. The first time that it went through, was nearly a month and half after I sent it. So I never got the card.

So Im just using that desk top stereo.
