Features

The Harmony Smart Control system provides maximum exibility for controlling your home entertainment system.

Use the Harmony app on your smartphone to control your entertainment devices (TV, cable or satellite box, DVR, game console, etc.) and home automaon devices (IR controllable light bulbs, vacuum cleaners, motorized blinds, etc.). A Harmony Smart Control remote is provided as backup in case your smartphone is not available.

Switch between watching cable TV, watching your Roku, or playing a game with one touch. You can program your Acvies to be as simple and general as you want or as complicated and precise as you want. Whatever you like to do, one touch can take you from one Acvity to the next, powering o and on the right devices and adapting the remote control to send the right commands to the devices you're currently using.

The Harmony App will guide you through the setup process on your smartphone. Once your setup is saved in the MyHarmony cloud, you have the ability to turn any supported smartphone into a remote that funcons as a Harmony Smart Control remote.

For suggestions on how to optimize your Harmony and for unique setup solutions, please visit our Harmony user community forums for ideas (English only).

Whether you use the Harmony App or your Harmony Smart Control remote, the hub stores your setup informaon and communicates between your Harmony Smart Control system and your entertainment center devices. The hub communicates with other devices by Wi-Fi, IR (infrared), and Bluetooth signals, depending on the device.

An IR mini blaster extends the range of the Harmony Hub allowing you to control devices that are on other shelves or outside of your cabinet, such as a television.

How your Harmony Smart Control works

Devices

Devices are the components of your entertainment system. Examples of devices are:

• TV set
• Cable or satellite set top box
• Audio Visual (AV) receiver
- DVD player
• Game console

Gather the manufacturer and model number informaon for each of your devices and record it on the next page of this user guide. Also write down how devices are connected to one another and the input they must be on. For example, to watch a movie you might have your television set to input (or source) "HDMI 1" and your AV Receiver set to input "DVD". Having this informaon collected ahead of me will make setup much easier.

Activities

Acvies dene the way you use your remote controlled devices. Examples of Acvies are:

• Watch TV
• Listen to Music
• Watch a DVD
• Play a Game

To create an Acvity, you need to know some basic informaon about how your devices interact with each other in that Acvity. For example, to create a basic Watch TV Acvity, you need to know:

- Which devices you will use. In most cases, you need at least the following devices:

• A TV set
  • A video source, such as a cable or satellite set top box

• Which device is used to control the volume

• Which device is used to change channels
• Which input is used on the TV set to view the video source

Inputs determine how your devices are connected. For example, if your DVD player is connected to the Video 2 input on your TV, then the TV must be set to Video 2 to display the DVD's picture. More information is provided about inputs in the instructions for Adding a Watch TV Activity.

Favorites

The Favorites screen allows you to view your predened Favorite Channels and staon icons (where available). You can select up to 50 television channels to display on the Harmony App. Selectng a Favorite Channel will start your "Watch TV" Acvity, if it's not already started, and tune directly to that channel. Using the mobile device screen, you can add, remove and reorder your Favorite Channels. The Harmony App on your smartphone allows you to customize Favorite Channels unique to each smartphone.

Harmony App

The Harmony App communicates with the Harmony hub and mini blasters to send commands to your devices. The app also sets up and communicates with your MyHarmony account, which saves your conguraon informaon in the cloud so that once the Harmony App is set up, you can use the Harmony App on all the smartphones in your household to control the Harmony Smart Control system. In addition, the Harmony App can be customized on each smartphone so that each person can set up and save their own individual preferences.

MyHarmony

hp://myharmony.com is a website where you can access your Harmony Smart Control conguraon informaon and make changes to your setup if necessary. When seng up your Harmony Smart Control system for the rst me with the Harmony App, it sets up a MyHarmony account for you on MyHarmony. You can return to MyHarmony any me to change your conguraon, although you can make most changes with the Harmony App. There are minimum system requirements for using MyHarmony on your computer. The following operang system/browser combinaons are supported:

Desktop Browser	Mac	PC*
Internet Explorer 8+		×
Chrome 16+		×
Firefox 11+	×	×
Safari 5.1+	×

* Windows Vista and XP support 32 bit browsers
* Windows 7 and 8 support both 32 and 64 bit browsers

Powering your system off

You can power o your all of the devices for an Acvity from the Harmony App by tapping the ☐ on at the top of the screen and then tapping Power O. For example, in a Watch TV Acvity that uses a TV, Cable Box, and AV Receiver; pressing the O buon will power o all three devices at the same me. Note that this menu opon is only available while an Acvity is on.

The Harmony Smart Control system knows the current state of the devices it controls by remembering the last Acvity you selected. For example, if you switch from watching cable TV to watching a DVD, the Harmony Smart Control knows that it doesn't need to power the TV off and back on, it just leaves the TV turned on; and it knows that it does need to power o the cable box and power on the DVD player.

You will primarily want to use the Harmony App to control your devices, but alternatively you can use the Harmony Smart Control remote O buon to power o all of the devices for an Acvity with one touch.

Interference with Harmony Smart Control

You can confuse the Harmony Smart Control by using other remotes or manually controlling your devices. For example, if you select the Watch TV Acvity and then use your TV remote to turn o the TV, the next me you want to select an Acvity, the Harmony Smart Control will think that your TV is already powered on and will not turn it on. Other things that can confuse the Harmony Smart Control include inter-device communicaon that turns devices on or o, such as HDMI-CEC or SCART (in Europe). For more informaon about HDMI-CEC, see the FAQ.

If the Harmony Smart Control becomes confused, you can use the Help funcon in the Harmony App to bring the TV back in sync. For more informaon about the Help funcon, see the seconds Help and Troubleshoong.

Harmony Smart Control First Time Setup

The rst me you set up your Harmony Smart Control system, the Harmony App walks you through the setup process and stores your sengs in your personal account. Your sengs can be transmied to your Harmony Hub, your Harmony Smart Control remote, or any other supported mobile device. If anything ever happens to your smartphone, Harmony Hub, or remote control, you can use these saved sengs to set up a replacement system with ease.

Hardware setup

There are a few steps to seng up your Harmony Smart Control hardware:

1. Connect your Harmony Hub to a power outlet.

Black electronic device connected to a cable with an outlet symbol (no text or labels visible)

1. Place the hub inside your entertainment system.

Connect the IR mini blaster to the port on the rear of the Harmony Hub.

1. Place the mini blaster outside your cabinet or inside your cabinet on a dierent shelf from your hub. The Smart Control remote cannot send IR signals, so if you have the hub inside a closed cabinet, place the mini blaster outside the cabinet so that it can send IR signals to the television.

If your TV does not go to the right input when starng an Acvity from an everything-o state, try increasing the power on delay for your television. This feature is accessible in your remote's Sengs menu and in your MyHarmony account. See the secon Modifying device sengs for more informaon.

Position the hub and set up hub assignments correctly for your setup

Tradional 'line of sight' required when operang most infrared remote controls is not required with Harmony Ulmate. The Harmony Hub and IR mini blaster send a strong infrared signal that can react o walls and other surfaces before reaching your devices.

Both the hub and IR mini blaster send strong IR signals and may control mulple devices within their range. Larger obstacles such as walls, bookshelves or doors may prevent the IR signals from reaching your devices. If this is the case, try repositioning your hub or IR mini blaster.

When used inside a cabinet, the hub or IR mini blaster can control all the devices within that cabinet. If your cabinet contains devices on mulple shelves that are isolated from one another, a hub or IR mini blaster may need to be posioned on each shelf. You can change which parts of the Smart Control system control each of your devices. For more informaon about hub assignments, see Changing hub assignments with MyHarmony.

Use the Help function to put the remote back in sync with devices

S intermittent Harmony becomes out of sync with your devices and confuses when they are on or o, or which input they are on. This occurs when there is an obstacle between the device and the IR transmiers in the hub, IR mini blaster, or remote; or if the devices are operated manually or by using their original remote control. Harmony Smart Control can run through a series of quesons to help identify the issue and correct it.

1. Tap the icon.
2. Select Help.
3. Tap the Power or Input buon for the device that is out of sync.

NOTE: If you use the Help feature frequently when powering on your devices or switching between Acvies, then there may be changes that can be applied to correct this. The Help feature should not be necessary with a properly congured setup.

TIP: Before you use Help, make sure you take steps to address the problem: remove any obstacles from the line of sight between your remote and your system, and only use the Harmony Smart Control system when it is within range of your entertainment system.

Special devices

Some types of devices require that you change or manipulate some aspect of them in order for them to be controlled by Harmony Smart Control. If you have an RF-only device, a device that understands mulple IR languages, or a device that does not accept IR input at all, you will be need of this during setup. Examples of these devices are:

• RF devices: some devices, such as DirecTV or Dish Network cable boxes, are controlled using RF (Radio Frequency) signals. If your device's original remote can operate from a dierent room, then it is likely using a RF signal. Some of these devices allow them to switch into an IR (infrared) mode that allows Harmony to control them.
• Mul-Code devices: some devices may be controlled using mulple dierent IR (infrared) signal versions. MyHarmony will use the most common version. If it does not work, it will then try other versions until the correct one is idened.
  Bluetooth devices: Harmony Smart Control works with the PS3, Wii, and Wii U game consoles over Bluetooth. The Harmony remote will guide you through this process the rst me you use this device. Other Bluetooth capable devices such as television keyboards are not supported. For more informaon, see these arcs::

Customizing buttons and on-screen commands with MyHarmony

Harmony allows you to customize the commands that each buon sends, or what commands appear in your Acvity list. These buon mappings may be unique for each of your Acvies. This allows each buon or screen to have dierent funcons based on context. For example, in your Watch a DVD Acvity, the yellow buon may perform the eject command, while in your Listen to Music Acvity this same yellow buon may be used to pull up your Favorite preset.

When customizing your Harmony remote you may nd that commands have slightly dierent names than those of your original remote. For example, Select, OK, and Enter oen perform the same acon, but may be named dierently based on the original manufacturer.

Activities mode

When you select an Acvity to map buons for, the buons only perform the assigned funcons while the acvity is in progress for which they were mapped. If you want to assign a buon funcon for all Acvies, you will need to do it for each individual Acvity.

For example, the Fast Forward buon on the top of your remote can be set up so that quickly pressing it (short press) acvates the Fast Forward funcon and holding it (long press) acvates the Skip Forward funcon. You can also assign a sequence of commands instead of a single command, but you must use MyHarmony to assign command sequences to buons.

Device mode

It is recommended that you map buons while in Acvies mode so that you do not need to go into device mode to send commands to your device. Buons mapped in device mode will not carry over into any of your Acvies.
