Two Logitechs in Harmony: Logitech Harmony Elite and dirty old Logitech Harmony Ultimate. It does not have any IR emitters itself and therefore works only via Hub. The Logitech Harmony Companion features smart home buttons on top and a numeric pad on the bottom but lacks the touchscreen. What’s the difference between the Harmony remote models? And last, but definitely not least: if you want Alexa and/or Google Assistant support, you need the Hub.It has 2 wired IR Mini-Blaster so you can reach different parts of your cabinet from your hub. The Hub could be placed inside closed cabinets, so you can even hide all your devices. Since the app uses Wi-Fi and the remotes use radio frequency (RF) to connect to the Hub, you don’t need to point your remote at your devices.A Hub is required if you would like to link smart home devices, like Philips Hue.The smartphone Harmony app, which turns your mobile into a remote control, connects to the Harmony Hub through your Wi-Fi.
HARMONY HUB BLUETOOTH
HARMONY HUB FREE
Logitech received so much attention, that it decided to replace all Harmony Links with Harmony Hubs, free of charge. Logitech recently received public attention, when trying to discontinue the support of the Harmony Link, the predecessor of the Harmony Hub. Originally created by the Canadian company Easy Zapper, which got acquired by Logitech in 2004. The Harmony has a long history going back to 2001. Logitech offers speakers and cams, mice and keyboards, headsets and it’s currently fastest growing segment, gaming accessories.
HARMONY HUB PC
Who is Logitech?īased in Switzerland, Lausanne and California, Newark, Logitech has become a major provider of PC and mobile accessories.
Sorry, no Siri here (yet), unless you check out some Raspberry Pi projects, more on this in future posts. In the subsequent assistant posts, we will enable the integration with Google Assistant and Alexa to be able to control all our devices with voice commands. In this post, we will look into setting up and configuring our Logitech Harmony remote to control all of our devices at once, with only one touch. If you want to briefly jump back in time and check out the exciting history of remote controls, see the post: Introduction to Smart Entertainment: A Very Brief History of Wireless Remote Controls. The Harmony product line serves as universal remote not only for your entertainment but also for some of your smart home devices. It comes as no surprise, that we find the Logitech Harmony Remotes under Logitech’s “smart home” product category.
HARMONY HUB MOVIE
How easy would it be for the whole family? No need to learn multiple remotes and features.Īnd yes, your lighting can dim down when the movie starts, no additional remote or voice command required. Or, if you prefer handsfree: “Alexa/Hey Google, turn on NBC”. What if it would take you only one, single touch? How many times are you searching for one of them, only to find you need the other one? Switching input channels and turning devices on, on multiple remotes, every single time.
How many remote controls do you (have to) use?
