Click the Sequences tab on the right side of the screen 4. Click on Add Sequence. The Add Sequence page opens. 5. Enter a name for your sequence. Try using a name for your sequence that will represent what you are programming it to do. 6. Add steps or delays to your sequence as desired. 7. Click Save when finished. Your Sequence will appear in the list. 8. Assign your button sequence to a single button as described in the next section, Customizing buttons and on-screen commands. Customizing buttons and on-screen commands Harmony allows you to customize the commands that each button sends, or what commands appear in your Activity list. These button mappings may be unique for each of your Activities. This allows each button or screen to have different functions based on context. For example, in your Watch a DVD Activity, the yellow button may perform the eject command, while in your Listen to Music Activity this same yellow button may be used to pull up your Favorite preset. When customizing your Harmony remote you may find that commands have slightly different names than those of your original remote. For example, Select, OK, and Enter often perform the same action, but may be named differently based on the original manufacturer. Activities mode When you select an Activity to map buttons for, the buttons only perform the assigned functions while the activity is in progress for which they were mapped. If you want to assign a button function for all Activities, you will need to do it for each individual Activity. How to map buttons to your remote 1. Select the Buttons tab on the left hand side of the screen. 2. Select an Activity for the area of the remote you would like to create a sequence for (screen options or remote buttons) and click Go. 3. Select a button on the illustration of the remote. You can scroll the illustration to see buttons at the bottom of the remote. 4. Hover over a command to assign to that button and click on Long Press, Short Press, or Both to make the selection. 5. Click OK. NOTE: Each button on your remote can be assigned more than one command. For example, the Fast Forward button on the top of your remote can be set up so that quickly pressing it (short press) activates the Fast Forward function and holding it (long press) activates the Skip Forward function. Device Mode It is recommended that you do not map buttons while in Device Mode because the mapping will not carry over into any of your Activities. Instead, select an Activity to map buttons for.
