3.Setting up the devices you want to control
The guided online setup asks you to enter your device information. Enter the information for all the entertainment components you want to control with your Harmony 1100. You should use the Device Worksheet to gather all your device information before starting the setup process.
To set up the devices you want to control, from the Harmony Remote Software:
1.Select the Device Type for each of your devices.
2.Select the Manufacturer for each device.
3.Enter the Model numbers for each device.
Adding new devices at a later time
If you want to add newly acquired devices after the initial setup, see Adding and changing your devices.
4.Setting up Activities for your Harmony 1100
To set up Activities, you need to enter the information related to the Activities you will be using on your Harmony 1100. The Harmony Remote Software shows you a selection of recommended Activities based on the device information you provided.
When you set up Activities, the software asks questions about the function of each device. For example, if you set up the Watch TV Activity, you’re asked which device changes the channels (TV or satellite/cable box). If you have only one device that is capable of doing something, then the software skips the question. For example, if you have only one TV, the software doesn’t ask you which device displays video.
If the device has more than one input, the software asks you which input the device needs to set. If you’re not sure which input a device uses, see Determining your inputs for more information.
Activities are the basis for how the Harmony 1100 works. With Activities, the Harmony 1100 eliminates the need to use multiple remotes for simple tasks. Just select the Activity and the Harmony 1100 does the rest. For more information on Activities, see Adding and changing Activities.
