Assigning Devices to the Harmony Remote and the RF Wireless Extender You can assign either the Harmony Remote of the RF Wireless Extender to control your devices. Controlling a Device With the RF Wireless Extender: If you have set the RF Wireless Extender to control a device, the remote will send RF (radio frequency) signals (see A) to the RF Extender, which will then convert the signals to IR and send the signals to the device. Controlling devices using the RF Extender means you can control the devices even if they are behind closed doors (e. g. Controlling a Device With the Remote: If you have set the remote to control a device, the remote will use IR (infrared) signals to control the device. In order for the remote to control the device, there must be a direct line of sight between the signal sent by the remote and the device receiving the signal (see A). v. This can happen when the Harmony remote sends many infrared commands to set up all your devices for an Activity, but one or more devices are not receiving some commands. The Harmony remote is then "out of sync" with your devices (e. g. Some of the reasons the Harmony remote can become "out of sync" with your system are: · · · · Someone walks between the Harmony remote and your entertainment system while an Activity is starting. You point your Harmony remote away from your system while an Activity is starting. There is an object blocking the line-of-sight between your Harmony remote and the system. You are very far away from your entertainment system. You will need to use the Help button on your Harmony remote to resynchronize the remote with your devices. Before resynchronizing, ensure the cause of the problem has been addressed. Example Remove all obstructions so that the entertainment devices can receive the infrared commands from the Harmony remote. Note: If your devices are no longer responding consistently to your Harmony remote, but were doing so before, you may need to recharge the battery.
