Figuring out which inputs your system uses
One of the most important parts to creating your Activities for your Harmony 610 is determining
which inputs your system uses for each device. This chapter gives you some suggestions on how
to figure out which inputs your entertainment system uses if you’re not sure.
Inputs are how the devices in your entertainment system are connected. For example, your DVD
or cable box is connected to your TV through an input. If you use an AV Receiver to control the
sound on your devices, for example if you have a home theater system, this chapter will also help
you figure out the inputs for your audio connections.
After you know how your devices are connected, you can use the information to create your
Activities using the Harmony Remote Software.
Figuring out which type of input control you have
The first step in determining which inputs you have is to figure out how you use your device’s
original remote to change inputs. In general, there are four possibilities and each one is
described in this section. To figure out which option your TV or AV Receiver uses, look at your
device’s original remote and see which option fits.
Option 1 — One source button
In this case, your remote has only one source or input
select button.
When you press the source button, your device
switches to the next input and the label appears on
your TV screen.
Each time you press the source button, the device
switches to a new source until you get back to where
you started.
Option 2 — Several source buttons
In this case, your device’s original remote has several
source buttons — one for each input. For example,
you may have buttons labeled TV, DVD, VIDEO 1, or
S-VIDEO.
When you press one of the source buttons, the device
switches to the source you selected and the label
appears on your TV screen.
