It isn't necessarily obvious from the manual, but the Power On and System Off buttons can be used either as buttons with commands learned to each device or as macro buttons - but not both. I use System Off as a power off macro for the core components used by my wife (it shuts down the TV, cable box, and 950), while the M1 button turns those same devices on and switches the remote and the 950 to the cable box. Power On is the power command for each device (it's "power off" for the 950, and I have "power on" programmed to a LCD button labeled "PWRON" - although I pretty much never use it).

JMS - what sorts of macros do you plan to set up? You wouldn't need to include power on and off commands if you've got a separate macro in place to cover that.
