Getting to know your Harmony 650

How your Harmony 650 works

The Harmony 650 is an Activity-based infrared (IR) universal remote control. Using Harmony software, you can set up the Harmony 650 to control up to 5 devices.

The Harmony 650 delivers powerful Activity-based control using Smart State Technology®. This technology allows the Harmony 650 to keep track of the devices it controls, so it always knows which of your devices are on.

Devices, inputs, and Activities

To make the most of your Harmony 650, you need to understand the following terms: devices, inputs, and Activities.

Devices

Devices are the components of your entertainment system. They’re things like your TV, cable box, DVD player, or game console.

Inputs

Inputs are connections on the back of your devices. Inputs are used to connect your devices to each other. When you want to go from watching TV to watching a DVD or listening to music, you typically need to switch your TV and/or audio receiver to the correct input. For example, if your DVD player is connected to your TV using the HDMI 1 input, then the TV needs to be set to HDMI 1 to watch a DVD.

Activities

An Activity is something you do with your entertainment system, like watching TV, listening to music, or playing a game. Your Harmony remote automates Activities so that a single button turns on all the necessary devices for each Activity, and switches them to the required inputs. For example, pressing the Watch TV button might turn on your TV, your cable or satellite receiver, and your audio receiver, and switch to the correct video and audio inputs.

For information on how to select an Activity, or how to switch between Activities, see Selecting an Activity on page 4.
