Introduction 

The Harmony remote is an Internet-powered universal remote control. Your Harmony remote can 
control most devices that understand infrared (IR) signals. 
 
The configuration of your Harmony remote is simple: 

• 

Answer web wizard questions to create your own personal Harmony remote configuration. 

• 

The web wizard allow you to describe the entertainment devices you want to control, how they 
are set up, and your preferences for controlling them. 

• 

If one of your devices is not in the Harmony Remote web site's database, the web wizard will 
learn about your device and add it to your configuration. 

 
At the end of the setup process, you will have your own configuration loaded in your Harmony remote 
and your own personal Harmony Member home page. 
 
Return to your Harmony home page as often as you like to: 

• 

customize any of your Harmony remote’s features 

• 

add new entertainment devices 

• 

add new features such as interactive television listings or CD Jukebox Media Listings 

Getting to Know Your Harmony Remote 

Many of the Harmony remote's buttons are standard remote buttons. However, there are buttons and 
other hardware that may not be so familiar to you. The extra buttons and hardware give you access to 
the special features of the Harmony Remote.
