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 650

To set up Activities, you use the Add Activities page to enter the information related to the Activities you will be using on your Harmony 650. 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 only have one device that is capable of doing something, then the software skips the question. For example, if you only have 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 be 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 650 works. With Activities, the Harmony 650 eliminates the need to use multiple remotes for simple tasks. Just select the Activity and the Harmony 650 does the rest. For more information on Activities, see Adding and changing Activities.
