You will find some info on OEM code 301 in the Mach3 Macro Programmers Reference manual.
I have never used it.

I suspect the only person who has ever used OEM301 was Art Fenerty, and also that he used it just once for some special task.

Looks like the Wiki is now gone, so can't look it up.

Is OEM301 used for OEM triggers, like I think?

If so, it's not terribly useful, as it only works with one input.

Sorry guys, a bit off-topic but it is devastating that the Wiki has gone  :'(   so much information from the past just wiped out ???

From Ref Manual:

Sub SetTriggerMacro(MacroNum As Integer)
This function allows an M-macro to be associated with OEM code 301. This can be used
to cause one of the OEM Trigger signals to automatically run a macro when asserted. To
do this, the OEM Trigger signal must first be configured in Config->Ports&Pins-
>InputSignals. Then the OEM Trigger must be associated with OEM code 301 in
Config->SystemHotKeys. Finally, SetTriggerMacro must be used to define which Mmacro
will be executed when OEM button code 301 is executed.

Arguments:
MacroNum is the number of the M-macro to be run when OEM button code 301
is executed.
Return Value:
None

Example:
‘ Assume OEMTRIGGER5 is assigned to OEM code 301
‘ Assign the M1025 macro to OEM Code 301
SetTriggerMacro(1025)
‘ Now, when OEMTRIGGER5 is driven to its active level,
M1025.m1s will be executed

Simple, ennit?
