Harmony Remote User Manual

Introduction
The Harmony Remote is an internet powered universal remote. For the first time you will be able to
control your home entertainment devices as a system, not as a collection of components.
To configure your Harmony Remote, answer web wizard questions to create your own personal
Harmony configuration. The web wizards allow you say how you have set up your home
entertainment components, and what your preferences are.
Your Harmony Remote can control most devices that understand infrared (IR) signals. If one of your
devices is not in the HarmonyRemote.com database, the web wizard will learn about your device and
will automatically add it to the database.
At the end of the setup process, you will have your own configuration loaded onto your Harmony
Remote and your own personal Harmony Member home page. Come back to your Member home
page as often as you like to customize all of your Harmony Remote's features, to update your
interactive television listings, to explore your Zap links, or to add new entertainment devices.
How is the Harmony Remote SST-768 different?
The Harmony Remote SST -768 has fewer buttons than many other remotes. This is because the
Harmony Remote takes care of many tasks automatically. For example, you do not need a separate
button to choose between controlling your TV or your VCR. With the Harmony Remote, you say what
you want to do (e.g. Watch a Videotape) and the Harmony automatically controls your TV and your
VCR at the same time! You do not have to program any macros to achieve this level of automated and
simple control.
The ways that you interact with your entertainment system are grouped into Activities. Each Activity
controls just those devices that are needed. For example, in the "Watch a Videotape" Activity example
above, the Harmony Remote controls the television and VCR together.
