Selecting an Activity  

View the Activities you have added by pressing the 

Activities 

button. The screen (LCD) will then display 

the Activities you have added. Press the corresponding screen (LCD) button next to the Activity you want 
to start. 

As a default, when you select an Activity, you will see a message on the 
remote’s screen (LCD) reminding you to keep the remote pointed at your 
entertainment system while the Activity starts. This helps ensure that all infrared 
(IR) signals are properly sent. 

To turn on/off the “Starting Activity” message: 

1. Click 

My Remote Preferences

 on your Harmony home page. 

2. Click

Displaying On-screen (LCD) Help on Your Harmony Remote 

From time to time when you select an Activity, the Activity may not work. This can happen when the 
Harmony remote sends many infrared commands to set up all your devices for an Activity, but one or 
more devices are not receiving some commands. The Harmony remote is then "out of sync" with your 
devices (e.g. it thinks one of your devices is on, but it is turned off). Some of the reasons the Harmony 
remote can become "out of sync" with your system are:
