3. Wi-Fi

Harmony hub‑based products may sync their settings over Wi‑Fi. They also allow device and Activity configurations to be made from the remote and/or Harmony mobile app. Changes made on MyHarmony desktop software must be manually synced to your remote or hub; however, changes made directly on the remote or Harmony mobile app will automatically sync to the Harmony cloud.

  • To sync changes using your remote, navigate to Menu > Settings > Sync Remote.
  • To sync changes using the Harmony mobile app, navigate to Menu ( or ) > Harmony Setup > Sync.

From the Harmony remote

From the Harmony mobile app


Harmony periodically releases firmware updates and will notify you on the Harmony remote and the Harmony app when one is available for your device.

Firmware updates will be delivered over Wi‑Fi for products with a hub.

 

 

4. USB

Harmony IR remotes, which don't use a hub or the Harmony mobile app, synchronize their settings using a USB cable that connects from your remote to your computer. Any time a change is made using the MyHarmony desktop software, you must sync those changes to your remote. Harmony hub‑based remotes may also sync over USB to receive firmware updates or if syncing over Wi‑Fi fails.

  1. Sign into the MyHarmony desktop software and select your remote from the Remote Gallery.
  2. From the Home tab, click Sync in the upper right-hand corner.
  1. You will be prompted to connect your Harmony remote to your computer using the supplied USB cable.
    (This will check for firmware updates then sync changes made to your remote)
