Custom command programming

I am trying to set a button so that it runs a sequence of instructions. One is going to be:
- stop submaster 1
- stop submaster 2
- stop submaster 3
- set a range of DMX Channels (say 80-93) to be value 0
So they will run from one button (I'm working with an LJ who is used to a Masterpiece and is looking for as similar experience as possible).

Is there a way of stacking commands (as listed in the external commands list in the wiki) up to run from one key trigger?

It can be done but not the way you are thinking. You would have to make a cue that affects all the fixtures you are trying to control. If submaster 1 controls par cans then your cue would tell the par cans to turn off. Cues cannot be made to control submaster, sequences or Override Buttons, only fixtures.
