You will then be able to name the key "DVD Zoom" and access this "DVD Zoom" function from the Mode screen when the remote is in the mode that you selected when you learned this "DVD Zoom" command. In this example we only have a TV, Cable Box and Satellite Receiver set up, so the rest are grayed out, but you can still select any of the devices to learn commands for. You are then instructed to line up the remotes, and press the key on the IR34A remote that you want to learn.

(Repeatedly press the Side Key next to Set Delay or enter the delay directly with the numeric keys, 0-9. ) In this case let's set a 1 second delay between commands. Then point your existing remote at the bottom of the IR34A remote; press OK when you're ready. Learning a Macro - Main Keys At this screen you can select Add Key to a Macro. Instead of learning another "separate" key, the next key you learn will be added to a Macro. This Macro will be activated by the key that you learned the first command under.
