`
`Introduction
`The Logitech Harmony 700 remote is your answer to effortless home entertainment.
`With one-button Activities, you can go from watching TV to watching a DVD or
`listening to music with a single touch. The guided online setup steps you through the
`configuration of your Harmony 700, so you’ll soon be ready to sit back and relax!
`
`Whether you’re new to Harmony products or you consider yourself an expert, this User
`Manual provides you with the information you need to get you going.
`
`Getting to know your Harmony 700
`
`How your Harmony 700 works
`
`The Harmony 700 is an Activity-based infrared (IR) universal remote control. Using
`Harmony software, you can set up the Harmony 700 to control up to 8 devices.
`
`The Harmony 700 delivers powerful Activity-based control using Smart State
`Technology®. This technology allows the Harmony 700 to keep track of the devices it
`controls, so it always knows which of your devices are on.
`
`Devices, inputs, and Activities
`
`To make the most of your Harmony 700, you need to understand the following terms:
`devices, inputs, and Activities.
`
`Devices
`Devices are the components of your entertainment system. They’re things like your TV,
`cable box, DVD player, or game console.
`
`Inputs
`Inputs are connections on the back of your devices. Inputs are used to connect your
`devices to each other. When you want to go from watching TV to watching a DVD or
`listening to music, you typically need to switch your TV and/or audio receiver to the
`correct input. For example, if your DVD player is connected to your TV using the HDMI
`1 input, then the TV needs to be set to HDMI 1 to watch a DVD.
`
`Activities
`An Activity is something you do with your entertainment system, like watching TV,
`listening to music, or playing a game. Your Harmony remote automates Activities so
`that a single button turns on all the necessary devices for each Activity, and switches
`them to the required inputs. For example, pressing the Watch TV button might turn
`on your TV, your cable or satellite receiver, and your audio receiver, and switch to the
`correct video and audio inputs.
`
`For information on how to select an Activity, or how to switch between Activities, see
`Selecting an Activity on page 4.

`
`What’s on the Harmony 700’s screen
`
`Activities
`
`When you press an Activity button – Watch TV, Watch a
`Movie, or Listen to Music – the Activity starts, and the
`commands for that Activity appear on the screen. The
`commands that appear may apply to any of the devices that
`you use for that Activity. For example, if you’re watching a
`DVD, your remote screen displays functions and commands
`for your DVD, your TV, and other devices you use in the Watch
`a DVD Activity.
`
`When you press the More Activities button, the remote screen shows all Activities you
`have defined.
`
`Devices
`
`When you are viewing Activities on your remote’s screen, you
`switch to device mode by pressing the center button below
`Devices. The Harmony 700’s screen displays a list of your
`devices. From this screen, you can select a device, then view
`the commands that are available for that device.
`
`Favorite channels
`
`If you have favorite channels set up on your Harmony 700,
`they will appear on the remote’s screen when you start the Watch TV Activity then
`select Favorite Channels. If the favorite you are looking for doesn’t appear on first
`page, press the right arrow button to move to the next page of favorites.
`
`IR Status Indicator
`
`The status indicator flashes in the bottom right corner whenever command is being
`sent from your Harmony 700.
`
`Navigating screen options
`
`The buttons surrounding the remote’s screen allow
`you to navigate the screen options.
`
`The arrow buttons help you move through each
`page of options, while the side buttons allow you to
`choose an option.
`
`The center button lets you switch between Activities
`and devices, or return to the devices list.
`
`The upper right corner of the screen shows the current page number and how many
`pages there are in total.

`
`Using your Harmony 700
`
`Selecting an Activity
`
`You can start an Activity by pressing the appropriate
`Activity button or by pressing the More Activities button
`and selecting one of the Activities that appear on the
`remote’s screen.
`
`To switch to a new Activity, press the appropriate Activity
`button or use the More Activities button to choose
`another Activity.
`
`The Harmony 700 will take care of powering on the
`required devices, powering off the ones not needed, and
`changing inputs if necessary.
`
`Using the Remote Assistant
`
`The Harmony 700’s Remote Assistant appears on the remote screen when you
`disconnect the remote after syncing, and when you start an Activity. It guides you
`through the Activity. For example, when you select the Watch TV Activity, the Remote
`Assistant asks you if the TV is on and if the other devices in the Activity are configured
`properly.
`
`You can temporarily turn off the Remote Assistant by pressing the button beside the
`Turn off Assistant option on the remote’s screen. The Remote Assistant will reappear
`after the next sync.
`
`Controlling your devices individually
`
`In some cases, you may want to control a device individually. You may, for example,
`want to access a function not included in the current Activity (such as picture-in-
`picture).
`
`When you are in an Activity or on the More Activities screen, pressing the center
`button shows you a list of your devices. Choose the device you want to control. If
`necessary, use the arrow buttons to find the page with the desired device. Once you
`select the device, the Harmony 700 screen shows the commands for that device.
`Choose the desired command.
`
`Once you’ve finished, press the center button to return to Activities mode.
`

`
`LOGITECH HARMONY 700 USER MANUAL
`
`Using the Help button
`
`Because obstacles or distance can interfere with the signals the Harmony 700 sends
`when it starts an Activity (for example, someone walks between your Harmony 700
`and the TV when you press Watch TV, or you’re very far away from the system when
`you start an Activity), your Harmony 700 can become “out of sync” with your devices.
`
`To fix the problem, use the Help feature on your remote.

`
`To simplify the setup process, we recommend you fill out the Device
`worksheet, so that all the device information is at hand when you need
`it.
`
`Locating manufacturer and model number on your devices
`
`Manufacturer names and model numbers are typically found at the front of a
`device, on a label on the back or side of the device, or in the user manual for that
`device.
`
`7
`
`
`
`LOGITECH HARMONY 700 USER MANUAL
`
`1. Creating your user account
`
`To access My Harmony, open a web browser and go to MyHarmony.com. When you
`visit MyHarmony.com for the first time, you must create a user account so you can
`save your settings and return at any time to make changes.
`
`From the My Harmony site, follow the online instructions to set up your remote and
`create your account. Depending on your system, you may be prompted to download
`and install software.
`
`2. Connecting your Harmony 700 to your computer
`
`When asked to do so, connect your Harmony 700 to your computer using the USB
`cable provided.
`
`1.
`2.
`3.
`
`Connect the smaller end of the cable to the USB port on your remote.

`
`
`LOGITECH HARMONY 700 USER MANUAL
`
`4. Setting up Activities
`
`After you have finished identifying your devices, you can start setting up your
`Activities. An Activity is something you do with your entertainment system, like
`watching TV, listening to music, or playing a game.
`
`Your Harmony remote automates Activities so that a single button turns on all the
`necessary devices for each Activity, and switches them to the required inputs. For
`example, pressing the Watch a Movie button might turn on your TV and your DVD
`player, and switch the TV to the DVD player’s input.

`
`0:00 0:00
`
`0:00 1:10
`
`HDMI 1
`
`PLAY
`

`
`My Harmony prompts you to set up the Watch TV activity, and allows you to set
`up other Activities (depending on the devices you have added to your account). If
`you haven’t added enough devices to support an Activity, you won’t be given an
`opportunity to add any.
`
`When you set up an Activity, you choose the devices that are involved in the Activity,
`and indicate which devices you use to control which functions. For example, when you
`set up the Watch TV Activity, you pick the device that changes the channels and the
`device that controls the volume.
`
`If the device has more than one input, My Harmony asks you which input the device
`uses. If you’re not sure, see Determining your inputs on page 10 for more information.
`You may also be asked additional questions depending on your entertainment system.
`
`5. Updating the remote
`
`When you’re finishing adding Activities, click Sync to transfer your setup information to
`your Harmony 700. After the remote has been updated, the setup process will prompt
`you to disconnect the remote from your computer and test your remote on your home
`entertainment system. For specific details about testing your remote, see Testing your
`remote on page 12.
`

`
`
`
`LOGITECH HARMONY 700 USER MANUAL
`
`Determining your inputs
`
`One of the most important steps in creating your Activities for your Harmony 700 is
`determining which inputs your system uses for each device. If you’re not sure, this
`section offers some suggestions on how to figure out which inputs your entertainment
`system uses.
`
`Inputs are connections on the back of your devices. Using inputs, you connect your
`devices to each other. For example, your DVD or cable box may be connected to your
`TV through an HDMI input.
`
`After you know how your devices are connected, you can use the information to
`create your Activities using My Harmony.
`
`Step 1— Turn on all your devices
`
`To determine which devices are using which inputs, you should start by turning on all
`the devices in your entertainment system.
`
`If possible, you should start playing something in your DVD player, CD player, VCR, etc.
`
`By having all your devices on, it’s easier to see how they’re connected.
`
`You can use the Device worksheet on page 11 to keep track of which devices are
`connected using which inputs.
`
`Step 2 — Watch the TV
`
`In this step, you must use your TV’s original remote control to switch between inputs.
`
`1.
`
`2.
`
`Using your TV’s original remote, press the input button and select each input one-at-a-
`time.
`For each input, note which device appears to be connected to that input.
`For example, if you switch to HDMI 1 and see your DVD playing, you know your DVD player
`is connected to HDMI 1.
`
`Step 3 — Listen to the sound
`
`You need to complete this step only if you have a separate device (called an audio
`receiver) that manages the sound for your entertainment system. For example, you
`may have a home theater system or connect your TV to your stereo so that the sound
`comes out of your stereo speakers.
`
`You must use your audio receiver’s original remote control to switch between inputs.
`
`1.
`
`2.
`
`Using your audio receiver’s original remote, press the input button and select each
`input one-at-a-time.
`For each input, note which device appears to be connected to that input.
`For example, if you switch to OPTICAL 1 and hear the sound from your DVD playing, you
`know your DVD player is connected to OPTICAL 1.
`

`
`
`
`Device Worksheet
`
`LOGITECH HARMONY 700 USER MANUAL
`
`As part of setting up your Harmony remote, you will need to enter information about the
`components in your entertainment system. Fill out this worksheet to use as your guide.

`
`What are inputs... and why do I need to know about them?
`Inputs are how your devices are connected. Your Harmony remote
`needs to know your inputs so that it can switch them automatically for
`you when you start an activity.
`
`Tips for identifying Manufacturer:
` • also referred to as “make” or “brand name”
` • typically on the front of the component
` • sometimes on the label with the Model Number
` • examples: Sony®, Phillips®, Denon®, DirecTV®, TiVo®, etc.
`
`Tips for identifying Model Number:
` • also “Model” or “M/N”
` • usually on a label on the front, back or bottom of the
` component (see the Tip Center)
` • model number may be different than model name
` • also found in the component’s user manual
` • examples: RC-QN3BK, CT-36XF36C, Explorer 3100, L32
` HDTV 10A, etc.
` • NOT model number on the old remote control
` • NOT serial number (SN) which is usually much longer
`
`Tip Center
`How to Find Model Numbers
`
`On most entertainment
`components, the model number is
`usually found on a label located on
`the front, back, side, or bottom.
`
`MANUFACTURER
`MODEL NO: SD-3990-SC
`120V AC - 60Hz 13W
`SN:
`MC110D00001234
`
`
`
`
`ACMEACME
`
`SD-3990-SCSD-3990-SC
`
`If you cannot find the model
`number on the component itself,
`the user manual that came with
`your component should list the
`manufacturer and model number.
`
`Once you have gathered all of your information, take this worksheet to your computer and
`continue setting up your Harmony remote.

`
`Adding a passthrough device to an Activity
`
`A passthrough device is a device that you add to your system that a signal passes
`through unaltered.
`
`For example, if you use your DVD recorder (or VCR) to record shows from your cable or
`satellite receiver, you may need to add your DVD recorder as a passthrough device to
`the Watch TV Activity.
`
`In these examples, the DVD recorder and the A/V switch are used as passthrough
`devices.
`
`No picture? No sound? No problem!

`LOGITECH HARMONY 700 USER MANUAL
`
`When naming a command, Logitech suggests using the following naming conventions to
`make button assignment easier:
`
`•
`•
`•
`
`•
`
`•
`
`Don’t use spaces or special characters such as /, & or * in the name.
`Capitalize the first letter of each word (for example,
` NextDisc, ModeDigital).
`Start the command name with its main function (for example,
`VolumeRearUp,
`VolumeRearDown, VolumeFrontUp). This helps group related commands.
`Start commands that select inputs (for example, on a stereo receiver) with the prefix
`“Input”.
`Don’t name the input based on what you’ve connected to your device; instead,
`name it according to how it’s connected (for example, InputHDMI1, InputHDMI2,
`InputVideo1, InputAux).
`
`
`You can also teach commands from your original remote to the Harmony remote
`while you are adding a device, while fixing device settings, when adding a missing
`command, or when fixing a button or screen option.
`
`Setting up favorite channels
`
`You can set up favorite channels for your TV, or your cable or satellite receiver. If your
`system has more than one channel changing device, you should set up the favorite
`channels within your Watch TV Activity for the device you use to change channels.
`
`To set up your favorite channels:
`
`1.
`2.
`3.
`
`Open a browser and go to
`Sign into your account.
`Follow the online instructions to set up favorite channels.
`
`MyHarmony.com.
`
`Your favorite channels will appear on the remote’s screen when you start the Watch
`TV Activity then select Favorite Channels.
