Changing how buttons work in an Activity

When you select an Activity, your Harmony 785 turns on all the required
entertainment devices, sets up the device inputs correctly, and sets up the
remote's buttons to control the devices in the Activity. For example, when
you select the Watch a DVD Activity, the volume buttons on the Har-
mony 785 changes the volume.
However, there may be some commands you want to add to buttons or
display on the remote's screen. Using the Harmony Remote Software you
can add or customize how buttons work in any Activity quickly and easy.
From the Harmony Remote Software:
1. Select the Activities tab.
2. In the Activity in which you want to change a button, click Custom-
ize Buttons.
3. Follow the online instructions.

Adding custom buttons to an Activity

If you want a button to do something specific, or there's a function on
your device's original remote that's not on the Harmony 785, you can
create your own buttons that appear on the screen of the Harmony 785.
You can also change the name of a button on your remote's screen to help
make them easier to find.
Tip
·
When you create a custom name for a button, remember to think
about how the name will look on the remote's screen. We recommend
keeping button names to 10 characters or less.
