[Elecraft] P3SVGA/K3 macro madness

[Joe K2UF]

Trying to use the commands in the P3 pgmrs ref.   If I enter a command into
the P3 utility or the K3 utility app they work fine.  If I try to place one
of the P3 commands (ie  #SPN000500 ) in one of the P3 slots using the
attached keyboard it does not work.  I do not have a problem using any of
the K3 commands.
 
Any ideas/help
