Adding Devices to Your Account
Before you can add devices, you must install the software from the CD that was packaged with the
remote, or from the Logitech web site. Once you have installed the software, you will be prompted to
create a member account so that you can store your information about the devices in your home
entertainment center.
After you have created an account the software will guide through a step-by-step process that will ask you
questions about the type of devices you have (manufacturer and model information), and how you want to
use and control them.
Updating Devices in Your Account
After you have set up your Harmony remote, should you want to update any devices stored in your
account—you're replacing an existing device with an upgraded model, or you have purchased a device
for the first time—you can log in to your account, and edit your list of devices and settings.
You will need to update the remote with your latest changes.
Understanding Inputs
This section provides a description of what inputs are, where they are commonly located, and some
suggestions on how to tell what input a specific device uses.
Overview of Inputs
Home electronic devices such as televisions, DVD players, and stereo receivers require an audio and/or
video signal to perform their intended purpose (playing sound or a DVD). The source of the signal can
come from a cable company, an antenna, a satellite, a DVD player, etc. Typically, the signal is sent via a
cable, or multiple cables that plug into your device. The connector that the cable plugs into is called an
input.
There are different types of inputs, and sometimes a single device can have more than one type of input.
Examples
RCA inputs
Co-axial inputs
Optical inputs
An input is the connector on a device through which a signal (audio, video etc.) enters the device. An
input can also refer to a signal sent to a device.
