SST-659 User Manual Thursday, October 16, 2003 Step 5: Answer web wizard questions about the devices you want to control as a system This step is best performed by someone in your household who is familiar with your entertainment system. Use the Entertainment Device Worksheet that you completed in Step 2 to answer the web wizard questions about the make and model of your entertainment devices. If your device model number is not in the HarmonyRemote.com database, you have the option of choosing a compatible device, or setting up the device yourself. We recommend that beginners select a compatible device to start. This will get you controlling your system faster. Later you can come back to your Member Home Page, and adjust the functionality of the device you chose. At times the wizards will ask you to press buttons on your current remote controls to identify infrared languages or teach infrared commands. This will allow your Harmony Remote to determine which infrared languages and commands control your entertainment devices. Gather all of your current remote controls and bring them to your computer. For more details on the best way to teach infrared, please read the "Customizing your Harmony Remote" chapter in this manual. Step 6: Answer web wizard questions about how you have set up your entertainment system As described in the previous chapter, your Harmony Remote organizes functionality into Activities. The web wizard will ask you questions about how your entertainment devices are connected so that appropriate Activities can be created and automatically configured. Step 7: Update your Harmony Remote with your configuration Once you have finished answering the questions, the wizard creates a configuration that is then downloaded from the Internet to your computer. From there it is transferred to your Harmony Remote memory via the USB cable. Your Harmony contains Flash memory to store your configuration, so it is never lost, even if you take out the batteries. Whenever you wish to make changes (such as when you buy a new entertainment device), simply logon to your Member Home Page at HarmonyRemote.com and update your Harmony Remote with the new configuration. Keep in mind that because everyone's entertainment devices are different, the wizards may not get things exactly right the first time. That's ok. Just go back to your Member Home Page and adjust the settings, or run one of the setup wizards again. Update your Harmony Remote with the new configuration and try again.
