Getting to know your remote

How your Harmony 700 works

The Harmony 700 is an Activity-based infrared (IR) universal remote control. Using the Harmony Remote Software, you can configure the Harmony 700 to control up to 6

devices.

The Harmony 700 delivers powerful Activity-based control by using Smart State

Technology®. This technology allows the Harmony 700 to keep track of the devices it controls, so it always knows which of your devices are on. Using Smart State Technology®, the Harmony 700 switches effortlessly from watching a DVD to listening to music on the sound system with the touch of a button.

Activities, devices, and inputs

Activities are the basis for how the Harmony 700 works. Things like watching a DVD, listening to radio, playing a game are all examples of Activities you can set up for your remote using the Harmony Remote Software.

When you select an Activity, your Harmony 700 sends a series of commands to your entertainment system to turn on the necessary devices and configure them for the selected Activity. After you select an Activity, your Harmony 700 assigns the buttons on your remote so they control the proper devices and the screen displays other commands for that Activity.

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

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

Inputs are how your devices are connected. For example, if your DVD player is connected to your TV using the Video 1 input, then the TV needs to be set to Video 1 to display the DVD picture properly.
