Inter-Device Delay

The Inter-Device Delay is the amount of time between commands for different devices when you start an Activity. The Inter-Device Delay is also the time between the next sequence of commands that are sent to other devices within an Activity.

Example: My DVD player doesn’t always turn on when I start the Activity. I can get the DVD player to turn on by using the Help button however I don’t want to use Help every time.

Repeats

The Repeats are the number of times the remote repeats a command for a device to properly respond to the command. For instance, many devices need longer or shorter command repetitions to respond properly.

Example: Any time I press channel up, my Digital Set Top Box skips two channels at a time.

Adjusting the delay between IR commands (speed settings)

If you find the delay between IR commands is too long, especially when changing channels on your TV, you can change the delay time for a device that is reacting too slowly.

The Harmony One uses several different delays to control your devices. For more information on which delay you need to adjust, see Types of delays or speed settings.

To adjust the delay between IR commands, go to the Harmony Remote Software:

1.Click the Devices tab.

2.Select the device for which you want to apply the change and click Settings.

3.Select Adjust the delays (speed settings).

4.Click Next.

5.Follow the online instructions.
