One of the most important parts of creating Activities for your Harmony remote 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 also helps 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.

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.

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.
