Congratulations on the purchase of Harmony Pro 2400
Harmony Pro 2400 Hub is the center of your Harmony system — always keep it powered on!
- The hub receives commands from the remote, mobile app, as well as approved partner manufacturers. The remote itself does not send commands directly to devices unless it has been configured to do so from the Harmony app or remote.
- The hub sends commands to entertainment and home control devices over Bluetooth, a cloud based and local network API (IP), or with infrared signals (IR) depending on the specific device.
- Harmony Pro 2400 is also equipped with a detachable SMA antenna. The included antenna is designed to increase RF range between the remote and hub, and can be used with a cable lead to move the antenna to a location with less interference. An example would be moving the antenna outside a rack in order to increase reception. For more information, please visit: support.myharmony.com/pro
Lets Get Started
STEP 1: Properly positioning the hub
Harmony Pro 2400 Hub can be placed in any unobstructed location where IR signals can be transmitted to AV equipment. It can also be placed in cabinets using 3.5mm IR emitters or 3.5mm male to male cables positioned properly and connected to the hub.
Power Options
Harmony Pro 2400 hub can be powered by the included AC adapter, or a PoE connected Ethernet cable. When using a PoE connected Ethernet cable, the AC adapter is not required.
Once plugged in, the hub takes approximately 30 seconds to power up. The LED will glow red initially, then flash red when ready to pair with your BT enabled mobile device. Once it has successfully been connected to a Harmony account the LED will glow green (Step 3).
STEP 2: Charge your Remote
Plug in the charging station and place the remote in it.
Keep the remote in the charging station until setup is complete. The remote will hold a charge for 2-3 days of typical use. Make sure your client knows they should place the remote in the charging base when they aren’t using it.
STEP 3: Install the Harmony App
Visit the Apple App Store or Google Play and install the Harmony App.
Open your Logitech Pro Portal Account
You’ll need a Logitech Pro Portal account to take advantage of features only available to dealers in the portal. If you don’t already have a dealer account, please visit pro.myharmony.com
In addition to managing all of your clients, you can program and push syncs while off-site to decrease the need for truck rolls. You also gain access to online training, collateral, webinars, and other tools created specifically for the installer channel.
For more detailed instructions and product info, please visit support.myharmony.com/pro
The remainder of the setup will be done using your iOS or Android mobile device. Make sure the Bluetooth® connection on your mobile device is turned on. See the next section for an overview of what to expect.
Mobile App Setup Overview
Make sure you’ve signed up as a dealer on the Logitech Pro Portal and downloaded the Harmony mobile app.
- Log into your Logitech Pro Portal account. Select add client or add remote. If you don’t currently have a dealer account, go to: pro.myharmony.com to sign up.
- Set up client account. The Harmony app will auto launch and prompt you to enter your client’s email and information. The remote can initially be programmed without a password so the client doesn’t need to be immediately available to start programming.
- Scan your network. Harmony automatically looks for devices that can be controlled and adds them without the need to enter IP or MAC information (e.g. Sonos, Lutron, Roku, Hue, Smart TVs).
- Add home entertainment devices. For products not found during the network scan, just enter the manufacturer and model number (e.g. TV, cable box, AVR, game console, Blu-ray player).
- Add home control devices. Harmony supports various devices such as select lights, locks, thermostats and home control platforms. See Home Controls Explained section for further detail.
- Create Activities. You’ll be guided through creating Activities such as Watch TV, Listen to Music, and Good Night. See the One-touch Activities section below for further details.
- Software update and sync. Your remote’s software may need to be updated. If necessary (you will be informed after completing mobile setup), simply keep the remote in the cradle. The remote will show it’s syncing and when it’s done and ready to use.
One-touch Activities
Obviously, “Watch TV” or “Watch Movie” are the most popular Harmony Activities. Get creative and show your clients how technology can help set the mood in the house no matter what they’re doing! Soon they’ll be calling you back to add even more activities and with the Logitech Pro Portal you can add them without rolling a truck.
- Get in the Cooking mood using the Harmony App to brighten the lights in the kitchen and turn on their cooking playlist; or turn on the TV and switch to their favorite cooking channel. Voice control can be a favorite in the kitchen as well!
- Create the perfect Dinner Party mood and with one-touch-launch their favorite dinner playlist, dim the lights a bit, and turn up the heat.
- Dinner may be over, but Party Time can group more wireless speakers, adjust the volume by room, and change the playlist to something more upbeat. Plus adjust lighting throughout the home, and turn the thermostat down just a bit.
- The party’s over as one-touch dims the lights and turns on some relaxing music at the perfect volume – it’s time to Relax.
- Finally, add a Good Night activity that turns off all the lights, lowers your blinds, adjusts the thermostat, and locks your doors.

Additional Setup Tips
Programming Favorites: For Activities using TV, Sonos, Heos, or Roku, you can make often used channels easier to select with favorites. This only takes a few minutes to set up, and provides an experience similiar to selecting an app on your client’s phone.
