I have a "all system off" macro on home system properties set to a hard key that aliases to all devices to power down. I use only aliases to the device buttons and all work from their respective device panels. The TV is the only IR device. The other devices are in a media rack in another room using RF.
When I execute a power down from a device panel set to RF, everything in the media rack turns off but the TV stays on. The IR is not being executed, even though I am only a few feet away from the TV.
When I execute a power down from a panel that is set to IR, the TV turns off but everything in the media rack stays on. The RF is not executing.
Is it not possible to mix IR and RF device commands in a macro?
Any help be appreciated....

Yes it is. For things that need to be controlled via RF, put the codes into a device (not macrogroup) that is set for RF.
For things that need to be controlled via IR, put the codes into a device that is set for IR.
This is one of the reasons why on older models, we recommend the use of Hidden IR code pages, one device (not macrogroup) per piece of equipment such that each piece of equipment can be set for RF or IR.
Then, update your config such that all you user (UI) panels contain buttons that link to these hidden codes in the appropriate device.
