2. Connecting to MyHarmony Software

The Harmony 950 requires configuration using the MyHarmony desktop software. Download the software from the official Logitech Harmony website. Connect the remote to your computer using the supplied USB cable.

• Visit setup.myharmony.com to download the software.
• Install the MyHarmony software on your computer.
• Launch the software and follow the on-screen prompts to create an account or log in.
• Connect your Harmony 950 remote to your computer via the USB cable.
• The software will guide you through adding your entertainment devices (TV, cable box, Blu-ray player, etc.) and creating activities.

3. Adding Devices and Activities

The core functionality of Harmony remotes lies in its ability to control multiple devices simultaneously through "Activities."

• Adding Devices: In the MyHarmony software, select "Devices" and then "Add Device." Enter the manufacturer and model number for each of your entertainment components.
• Creating Activities: Once devices are added, navigate to "Activities" and select "Add Activity." Examples include "Watch TV," "Watch a Movie," or "Play Games." The software will prompt you to select which devices are involved in each activity and how they should be configured (e.g., TV input, receiver input).
• Customization: You can customize button assignments, add delays between commands, and set up favorite channels within the software.

Operating the Remote

1. Touchscreen Navigation

The Harmony 950 features a full-color touchscreen for intuitive control. Swipe left or right to navigate between screens, and tap icons to select activities or commands.

2. One-Touch Activities

To start an activity, simply tap its icon on the touchscreen. The Harmony 950 will automatically power on the necessary devices, switch to the correct inputs, and configure settings as defined in the MyHarmony software.

3. Device Control

While an activity is running, the physical buttons on the remote will control the relevant devices. For example, during "Watch TV," the volume buttons will control your receiver or TV, and channel buttons will control your cable box.

To control a specific device directly without changing activities, tap the "Devices" button on the touchscreen and select the desired device.

4. Motion-Activated Backlight

The remote's buttons illuminate automatically when motion is detected, making it easy to use in low-light conditions.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning the Remote

Use a soft, lint-free cloth to clean the remote's surface and touchscreen. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. A slightly damp cloth can be used for stubborn smudges, but ensure no moisture enters the device.

2. Battery Care

Keep the remote in its charging station when not in use to ensure it is always ready. The Harmony 950 uses a Lithium Polymer battery. Avoid extreme temperatures to prolong battery life.
