#LOGITECH HARMONY AND REMOTE BUDDY SOFTWARE#
Power on and off worked… no need to do the av1/2 thing (although I can see somethign about that on my remote).Īnyway, thanks so much… I’m going ot submit a link to this blog post to Logitech… hopefully they can fix their software to account for this.These instructions would not be possible with if it was off it’d turn it on and set it to the right input.”Įverything worked. and it worked! my inputs changed when i changed activities. “eventually i chose “i don’t have the remote, but i know what needs to be done” and chose ir commands from the dropdown list. I’ve spent at least 3 or 4 hours on this… changing delay times, reloading the config (which takes WAY too long), changing this, changing that… learning IR, re-configuring the whole device… NOTHING would work. I could go into the device and manually switch the input, but the activity method never worked. New harmony remote, Sony Receiver (different model I believe)…the darn thing would just not switch audio inputs automatically for me. Author TeRRY Posted on 07.January.2007 00:47īUDDY!!!! You da man!!! I was having this exact same problem. on the good side, now that i’ve got the basics worked out i can move on to creating all kinds of crazy one-button custom codes to control my a/v devices as a whole. i’m assuming that most people probably just enter their devices and things just magically work, no sweat. The whole thing was certainly a much more painful process than i’d expected, and i had to do roundabout methods that weren’t intuitive or accurate for my remote in order to get it to work. and FINALLY the basic functions of each device worked, and everything turned on and off at the appropriate points. i then yet again uploaded the config via usb to the remote (for the i-don’t-know-how-many-th time). *sigh* i went back into the online config and told it my remote has a separate button for on and off (which isn’t true) and then instead of telling it i had my remote i told it i didn’t but i knew what needed to be pressed and picked “poweron” and “poweroff” from the drop menus. if it was off it’d turn it on and set it to the right input.īut it wouldn’t turn it off. eventually i chose “i don’t have the remote, but i know what needs to be done” and chose ir commands from the dropdown list. power toggling never worked correctly either. i did it over and over and it never worked. saying “i have my remote and know what to do”, which meant it was “learning” ir commands, never worked. the list of what command it would use to change to an input was blank. after another hour or more of messing with it, reconfiguring and deleting both activities and the device, i eventually stumbled onto something. on the good side, it could now turn on the receiver - but it didn’t change inputs, or turn it off. having done this, i once again went through the online setup process and prepared to enjoy my working remote.Įxcept it didn’t work. the use mode light will blink once for “av1” or twice for “av2”. use the easy scroll key to select between “av1” and “av2”, then press it to select. use the easy scroll button to see “main” and push the easy scroll key to select it. you should see “main” or “2nd” show up on the screen. for it, hold down the “use mode” button and press the main power (I/O) button. i then also had to do this on my remote (rm-lg112) so the original remote would work with the device.

each time you do this, it switches between “av1” and “av2”. for the receiver, you turn it off, then hold down “input mode” and hit the power (I/O) button. Last night a google search turned up a page that said in order to work with universal remotes the sony receiver needed to be in “av1” mode instead of “av2” (the default). i eventually got frustrated trying to use logitech’s troubleshooting guide and knowledgebase, and repeated attempts at deleting/re-configuring the remote and getting it to “learn” the ir commands from my working remote. i could get it to change the volume, but not turn it on/off or change inputs. i spent a couple of hours over several days mucking around with the remote, trying to get it to control the receiver, but pretty much to no avail.

after entering my stuff and going through the steps, everything basic worked on all of my devices…except my a/v receiver.
#LOGITECH HARMONY AND REMOTE BUDDY DOWNLOAD#
it’s a universal remote that uses a usb connection to download the codes for your devices from logitech’s website. Okay, so here’s my story about the new remote the potts’ got me for xmas.
