So IR will only work for the television, not for the Apple TV, Logitech speakers, KPN Box etc. Well, the idea is all my equipment is in a box now with the IR transmitters of the Harmony hub, all Out of sight. I hope you have some of the answers! Thanks in advance!
Is that anything I can expect or (as a non IT guy) can program myself with the homey? Normally it only starts flashing or vibrating, but homey could add functionality by pausing programs/music and tell me someone is the door, sending me e-mail, or buzz my iphone. I also use a Bellman visit system that uses 868 mhz communication, to notify when someone calls me or when the bell rings (I can not hear High frequency sounds). The Harmony hub will then adjust the settings to all devices just as is does when remote or iphone/ipad are used to give commands. It would be great if Homey could send the same signals as the remote or iphone/ipad(using the wifi network) by using speech command.
LOGITECH HARMONY REMOTE TV
Now i have to use my iPhone/ipad (Wifi) or Remote to give commands to the Hub, for example to start Watching TV, Radio or use Apple TV (scenes). Ofcourse HUE, KAKU etc will all be supported, but I Could not find much information on two other products I'm using.įirst of all the Harmony Hub A stand-alone product that works perfectly, but Homey could improve its functionality by adding Speech commands. Now before I Pre-Order one I would like to know what would be needed for my Homey to work with equipment I already have.

If you still have specific questions, feel free to post them in the comments.First of all I want to congratulate you guys with this brilliant product! Watched the video on Tweakers and I'm impressed! The whole thing worked pretty well for me yesterday evening. That way, you can avoid faulty actions when the Apple TV sends a signal even though it doesn’t have anything to report. You should not forget an important issue: in the Hue Sync app, you should disable the automatic switching between HDMI inputs in the settings – this is no longer necessary thanks to the Harmony remote. The creation of the actions is done in the same way as you are used to with the Harmony app. It would also be possible to start the Sync Box together with selected devices or to activate a certain mode. After that I had to adjust the actions in the Harmony app, of course – the HDMI switch is now no longer done via the TV, but via the HDMI Sync Box. They lead from the Sky receiver and the Apple TV directly to the TV and to the Sync Box.
Attention: despite confirmation, some commands were not recognized the first time – in this case you have to delete the programming in the Hue Sync App and try again.Īfter the successful programming of the remote control, I connected the HDMI cables. Here you can add the required functions one by one and press the corresponding button on your Harmony remote to start programming.
Train the Logitech Harmony to work with the Hue Sync BoxĪt present, therefore, a small additional effort is still necessary: armed with your Harmony remote control, open the Hue Sync app and go to the “TV Remote” section in the settings. The IR commands will then work directly without any training effort.
LOGITECH HARMONY REMOTE UPDATE
In a future update these commands will be stored on the Sync Box by default, so that the training process can be skipped. The IR commands for the Sync Box have to be trained with the Sync App as soon as the Sync Box is added to the Logitech Harmony Remote. Signify lets us know the following: “Currently, the IR codes that are in the Logitech Harmony database are not yet pre-programmed in the Hue Sync Box. I was able to find these commands directly on my Harmony Elite – but I couldn’t execute them yet. If you activate this device, all actions that are possible with the sync box will be stored in the Harmony app.
