Assigning Devices to the Harmony Remote or to the RF Wireless Extender

You can control your devices with either the Harmony remote or the RF Wireless Extender. Typically, you use the Harmony remote to control devices with which you have a clear line-of-sight, and you use the RF Wireless Extender to control devices that are

in a closed cabinet or that span different rooms. For example, you would likely use the Harmony remote to control the TV because it is out in the open, but you would use the RF Wireless Extender to control the AV receiver and the DVD player, which are tucked away inside a cabinet.

To assign devices to the Harmony remote or to the RF Wireless Extender, from your Harmony software:

1.Click the Remote Settings tab.

2.Click Manage Devices.

3.Click Control Devices.

4.Select whether to control each device with the remote or the RF Wireless Extender.

5.Click Next.

6.Click Done.

Note: Logitech recommends that you use the RF Wireless Extender to control a device whenever possible because it preserves the on/off state of the devices.
