Customer Reviews
OK this is a bit long story....How this started..---------------------------I owned the Harmony 700 that was working well for last 4 years. However with a new wall mount tv and moving all other electronics to a cabinet, the harmony 700 could no longer reach them as the Harmony 700 is IR only remote. The closed cabinet is in another room behind a wall - about 15 feet away.I have several electronics - LED TV, sound bar, hdmi switch, Dish Network DVR, Blu-ray player, Apple TV, XBox 360. I was able to program 6 devices on the Harmony 700 leaving the Xbox for manual operation but not a big deal as I do not use it that often.Naturally I purchased a IR extender - after a lot of research - a monoprice 300 ft range extender. It worked for a few devices but not others. It would also not work consistently and my wife gave me constant gripe about that.More research and found a NextGen IR to RF extender that had very good reviews on Amazon. But unfortunately for me it had the same issues. Worked well for some devices but not others.Finally I thought whether there were any remote extenders that work over wifi rather than IR. after looking round finally saw the Harmony Smart Control. With my prior experience with Harmony, I was very happy to see this. The main difference between this and the two previous extenders I got was the price - 30-40 for the others and 145 with tax for this one. But I needed something that worked,And I am glad I got this. Below are the benefits in my opinion.Programming---------------------Programming the remote is super simple using The Logitech website. They have a web based app where you can do all the set ups and then just sync to the remote - the hub in this case using a USB cable. If you have used any Harmony remote before, this is a life saver to program complicated functions with ease.The Hub & Remote------------------------------The Smart Control gives you the hub and Remote. The hub is the IR blaster. I believe it communicates with the remote using RF or WiFi - I am not sure. The remote and Hub come paired out of the box. To get started you startup the harmony program and connect the hub to your laptop using USB cable that it comes with. Program your devices and sync. That's it. Unplug the hub from the laptop and connect it to the power cord that it comes with and place it in front of the devices. The Hub supports two IR blasters but come with only 1 external IR blaster. The Hub itself is an IR blaster. So essentially you can have 3 total and you already have 2 (Hub + 1 Eye included).In the other devices that I returned, the IR eye was a tiny IR led. Not sure about the Hub, but I just put it inside he cabinet and closed he cabinet door, and it just works - every time - never misses a Button press. And I did not even put it in line of sight - I have the DVR sitting , the Blu-ray player stacked on it, the Apple TV on top of that, and the hdmi switch on top of that. The Xbox sits in the lower part of the cabinet.But somehow it just works...The only issue I see-----------------------------So I have my TV and Soundbar in living room and the Hub is no where in sight. My only gripe but jot a major one, was that the included remote is more of a controller and not a true remote - it does not have IR at all. So I have to run a wire behind the wall and attached the included IR blaster so it sits just on top of the Soundbar where it can send the IR to both the TV and the Soundbar. The included IR eye has a cable of about 6 feet or so. But I had to cover about 30 feet and the wire needed to be hidden. So I put together an extension cable because i could not find one in store locally. I used a 30 foot speaker wire that I had laying around, and got the 3/32" male and female connectors from RadioShack and soldered them. It worked!!!Finally-----------So now everything works just right. One remote works for all devices. If you are thinking about buying this, stop reading and buy it already.IPhone app----------------------The Hub supports the use of the Harmony iPhone and android apps. Using the app you can control everything that you can with the remote and then some. For example if you press he OFF button on the remote and for whatever reason say the TV does not turn off, your remote will not be able to pick the TV and turn it off anymore. You would need to manually turn off. The App can do that, the remote can't.I Md not really using it though, so can't say much. I just tried it out and it works well for what I tried. I can see that you may need to get Used to it. The one thing what you can do with the App is have favorite channels up to 50 channels so a press of a button on your smartphone.Overall a great buy, I wish I had found it 2 weeks earlier. It would have saved me a lot of time and frustration...
