Naming an Infrared Command 

When the Harmony remote learns an infrared command, give the command a name. This way you can 
refer to this command by name in various locations of the online setup process. It is best to use the 
default names listed in the 

Learn infrared commands

 step so that automatic button function 

assignments can be applied to your Harmony remote. 

Example 

If the Harmony remote learns the volume button infrared commands from your original remote 
control, name the commands "VolumeUp" and "VolumeDown" (i.e. with no space, and 
capitalization as shown). The Harmony Remote Software looks for commands with these names 
to automatically assign them to the volume up and down buttons on the Harmony remote. 

Naming Conventions 

When naming a command for which there is no default name under the 

Learn infrared commands

 

option, use the following naming conventions to make button assignment and sharing infrared commands 
easier: 

• 

Do not use spaces or special characters such as /, & or * in the name. 

• 

Capitalize the start of words (e.g. NextDisc, ModeDigital). 

• 

Start the command name with its main function (e.g. VolumeRearUp, VolumeRearDown, 
VolumeFrontUp, VolumeFrontDown). This helps group related commands in lists. 

• 

For infrared commands that select inputs (e.g. on a stereo receiver), start with the prefix "Input".  

 

Do not name the input based on what you have connected to your device, rather name it 
based on what it is called on the front of the device, or on the remote control (e.g. InputAux, 
InputVideo1, InputTape, InputDVD, InputVCR).
