How many times have you tried to do something with your home entertainment system that should be simple, but that turns out to be complicated and time consuming each time you try, such as playing a DVD with the sound through your stereo speakers? And even if you find it simple to turn on all the right devices and set all the inputs correctly to play a DVD, watch a video, or record a show, who else in your home can do that? How many times have you heard "I tried to play a DVD and I couldn't get any sound" on the phone?
The Harmony Remote is here to the rescue! The Harmony Remote has been designed to be easy to use by anyone in the home, and it is easy to set up by the person in the house who usually controls the entertainment system. There are no macros to program... just answer simple Web Wizard questions, and the Harmony software automatically programs Activities into the Harmony Remote's memory.
What are Activities?
The Harmony Remote changes the way you interact with your entertainment devices in your home. All other universal remote controls offer device-by-device control, whereas the Harmony Remote provides activity-based control. All you need to do is select an activity on the LCD screen such as "Watch Television" or "Play a Video" and the Harmony Remote sends all the commands to your entertainment devices to set them up perfectly for that activity.
The Harmony Remote does not have separate buttons to choose between controlling your TV or your VCR. When you choose an activity such as "Watch a Video", the Harmony Remote automatically controls your TV, stereo receiver and your VCR at the same time! The Harmony Remote is the only universal remote on the market that achieves this level of automatic and simple control.
How does it work?
1. Set up Activities at your computer and transfer the configuration into the Harmony Remote's memory via the USB cable.
2. Control your entertainment system with the Harmony Remote Activities. Its so easy, anyone in the home can do it.
