the ControlPad CP48-USB.

Step # 2: Select the CP48-USB key(s) you want to program.

Use your mouse to click on the key you want to program. The CP48­USB buttons are located on the top/left corner of the MacroMaster
program.

Step # 3: Create the macro(s).

Enter the keyboard keystrokes that you want to record into the
selected macro location. There are two ways to enter keystrokes.

• Use your mouse to click on the keys you want to record. Use the

keyboard graphic which is located on the bottom of the
MacroMaster Program. This will automatically insert each key
selected into the grid.

• Use your standard keyboard which is already attached to your

PC to type in the keystrokes. Only the green colored keys are
available from your keyboard directly for keyboard to keyboard
programming. The other keys will have to be entered using your
mouse.

definitions from the filename you last saved. The download
utility will automatically detect if the Controlpad CP48-USB is
plugged into the USB port and begin to download. Once
complete, the Controlpad CP48-USB will be reset by the
download program and you will notice the LED flash several
times during this reset process, please wait for the reset to finish
before typing on the keys.

Step # 6: Test your macros.
