Testing your setup

Every time you update your Harmony One, you should test your remote to ensure it’s working the way you expect. This chapter gives you the information you need to test your remote. It also has some suggestions on what to check while you’re testing your setup.

If you run into specific issues while testing your remote, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this manual for suggestions and possible fixes for your problems.

The process of testing your Harmony One is straightforward. It involves simply trying the Activities you use most often and then using the on-remote help to correct any issues.

In some cases, you may need to return to the Harmony Remote Software to make changes to your remote’s setup to ensure the remote is working the way you want.

To begin testing your remote:

1.Ensure all the devices in your entertainment system are turned off. . Disconnect the USB cable from your remote.

If this is the first time you’ve updated your remote, the Harmony One’s tutorial will start on the remote’s screen.

1. Follow the instructions displayed on the remote’s screen.

. Go to your entertainment system and try each of your Activities.

For tips on what to look for when starting an Activity, or switching between Activities, see the tips in this chapter.

If an Activity doesn’t start correctly, press the Help button on the remote and the on-remote help will get you back “in sync”. After you finish testing your Activities, be sure to re-test any for which you had to use the Help.
