Harmony One Programming Question regarding ON/OFF feature for

Options

‎06-13-2009 07:10 AM

OK!  I am receiving my remote on Tuesday but I have been reading the instruction manual and couldn't find any posts regarding the following:

 

If I create a "Watch TV" Activity which turns on my Onkyo receiver, DVDO VP50Pro Video Processor, Dish Network PVR and Sony HDTV, is there a way to program the remote so that it will turn off everything except for the Dish Network DVR?  With all of my individual remotes right now, I usually shut off everything individually except for the Dish Network VIP622 DVR, which is left ON 24 hours a day because I usually have it set to record programs at different times.  If not, I assume that I would have to leave the Dish Network device out of the program chain.  Sadly, that would mean I would not benefit from the really cool individual channel icons available for the remote!  I hope someone more experienced than I has some suggestions!!  :smileyvery-happy:

I believe the the Dish receivers do not need to be left on to record.  If they do need to be left on, in the software Select Devices, select your Dish receiver, select Settings, select Adjust Power and the selete that you want to leave this device on all the time.  I know that all of my Directv receivers will still record if turned off.

Dishnet receivers DO NOT have to be left on to record.  Also if it does not setup with Discrete power on/off commands here is the way to set it up.

 

 

  • Press and hold the SAT button at the top of the remote until all mode button backlights illuminate (about 3 seconds), then release.
  • While the SAT mode light blinks, press and release the large satellite Power button.
  • Press Volume Up for discrete power on. Press Volume Down for discrete power off.
  • Press the Select button to exit.

    •
