Interacting with your Entertainment
Bookmark with Zap
Your Harmony Remote always keeps track of what you are doing, whether that be watching TV
though your satellite receiver or cable box. When you see something you like, you simply press the
Zap
button. At that instant, your Harmony Remote stores the date and time in its memory, as well as a
note of the channel. Therefore it is as if the Harmony Remote bookmarks what you are watching.
The next time you Update your Harmony Remote (for example to receive the latest TV listings), this
bookmark information is uploaded from the Harmony Remote's memory directly to
HarmonyRemote.com. The web site looks for information related to this bookmark in its database and
tries to find appropriate links to other web sites. Click on the "My Zaps" button on your Member
Home Page to see the links.
Lets look at an example: Lets say that you are watching Oprah and an interesting book is reviewed.
Press the
Zap
button. Later, Update your Harmony Remote. Click on "My Zaps" and you will see
various links such as one to www.Oprah.com. You will also see search links that can help you find out
more about what you were watching.
Make sure the date and time on your computer are correct when you Update your Harmony
Remote. This information is used to determine what show you were watching when you
Zapped.
If you change the batteries in your Harmony Remote, the date and time are reset. Your Zap
links may not be correct when you next Update. However, from that point forward they will
be correct.
