Controlling your devices individually
In some cases, you may want to control a device individually. You can use the device feature of the
Harmony 525 to control devices one-by-one.
When you press the
Device
button, the Harmony 525 screen displays a list of your devices. Select
the device you wish to control by pressing the side LCD button closest to your selection. After you
select a device, the Harmony 525 controls only that device. You have access to all the commands
for the device included in your Harmony 525 configuration.
Once you’ve finished, return to Activities for the optimal control of your entertainment system.
The Harmony 525 senses when you pick it up, and lights up the display and buttons.
To set the length of time the backlight stays on, follow these steps:
From your Harmony Remote Software:
Select

Using the Coloured Buttons (Teletext)
If your TV is programmed to send and receive Teletext content, when you press any of the
Coloured buttons (Teletext), the home page for Coloured buttons will appear on the television
(it may take a few seconds for the page to appear). The Teletext page will completely replace
the television picture, but sound will still be available. Each Teletext page has a unique 3-digit
page number; all pages can be accessed by entering the 3-digit page number using the
numbered channel buttons on your Harmony remote.
While Teletext is the default setting for these coloured buttons
in the Watch TV Activity, you can customize these buttons
to send different commands in other Activities. See Adding
custom-labeled buttons to an Activity.
Using the Glow Button
Press the
Glow
button to light up or turn off the display backlight. To determine the length
of time the backlight stays on.
Note: Shaking or tilting the Harmony remote will not light up the display backlight. Users must
press the
Glow
button to light up the display backlight. The remote will go into
Deep Sleep
mode when the remote detects no motion for two hours. The remote will begin motion
sensing in
Deep Sleep
mode, and any motion or movement in front of the remote will not
trigger the glow.
