Introduction You're about to experience a new standard in simplicity with even the most complex components. With just one touch you can start watching, listening or playing. Whether you're new to Harmony products or you consider yourself an expert, this User Manual provides you with useful information to get you going. Getting to know your remote How your Harmony 1100 works The Harmony 1100 is an Activity-based infrared (IR) universal remote control. Using the Harmony Remote Software, you can configure the Harmony 1100 to control up to 15 devices. When you pair the Harmony 1100 with the optional RF Wireless Extender, you can control up to eight components that are out of sight, for example, in a cabinet or in another room. The Harmony 1100 uses Smart State Technology® to deliver powerful Activity-based control. This technology allows the Harmony 1100 to control your home theatre as a whole. It knows which devices need to be turned on and which inputs the devices need to be set to. Using Smart State Technology®, the Harmony 1100 switches effortlessly from watching a DVD to listening to music on the stereo with the touch of a button. Activities, devices, and inputs Activities are the basis for how the Harmony 1100 works. Watching a DVD, listening to the radio, and playing a game are all examples of Activities you can set up for your remote using the Harmony Remote Software. During setup, a step-by-step wizard walks you through creating these Activities for your system. When you select an Activity, your Harmony 1100 sends a series of commands to your entertainment system to turn on the necessary devices and configure them for the selected Activity. All the buttons you need for that Activity are automatically at your fingertips. Devices are the components that make up your entertainment system. The TV, cable box, DVD player, and game system are all examples of Devices. Inputs are how your devices are connected. For example, if you look at the back of your TV, there are a number of ports where you can connect your devices. These are inputs. 5
