[Elecraft] K3 Macros in memory

I would like help in programming the four buttons (M1-M4) that are in a
circle at the right of the K3.
I have the K3 Utility, and I have gotten it to label one of the buttons
and to get it to set the power. The button labeled M3 appears to
correspond to Macro 1. If I label it 10W, that shows on the screen when
it is pressed, and I can use any number. I am not sure that this is
the correct way to program these buttons.
Furthermore, I used this code: "PC010;" to get it to change the power
to 10 watts, and I can make that any power by changing the three
digits. However, I do not seem to be able to program the other buttons,
M1, M2, and M4. Despite what I put in Macros 2-4, M4 corresponds
exactly to M3; whatever I do for Macro 1 affects both M3 and M4 the same
way.
I need the procedure to program the buttons. I need to know which macro
corresponds to which button, and if this is the correct procedure in the
first place. I have similar code in macros 3 and 4, but buttons M1 and
M2 return the message: "END" and do not do anything to the power output.
Thank you,
Jan, KX2A
