On some remotes, you may also have home control buttons that you can use with devices like Philips Hue lights, a Nest thermostat, or a Belkin WeMo smart outlet. (You can see Logitech’s full list of supported smarthome devices here.)
在某些遥控器上，您可能还会有家用控制按钮，可与飞利浦Hue灯，Nest温控器或Belkin WeMo智能插座等设备配合使用。 (您可以在此处查看Logitech 支持的智能家居设备的完整列表 。)
Unlike home theater devices, you cant fully program your remote using the MyHarmony desktop software–you hae to use the Harmony app for iOS or Android to perform some of the setup. So, that’s what we’ll use in this guide.
与家庭影院设备不同，您无法使用MyHarmony桌面软件对遥控器进行完全编程，而必须使用适用于iOS或Android的Harmony应用程序来执行某些设置。 因此，这就是我们将在本指南中使用的内容。
This assumes you already have a Logitech Harmony universal remote set up for your home theater–so if you haven’t done so already, check out our Harmony guide for the initial setup process. Then, come back here to add smarthome control to your remote.
假设您已经为家庭影院设置了Logitech Harmony通用遥控器-因此，如果尚未设置，请查看我们的Harmony指南以了解初始设置过程。 然后，回到这里将智能家居控件添加到您的遥控器。
NOTE: If you can, try to follow these instructions as closely as possible. While Logitech makes some great hardware, their software is not very good, and things can go wonky and get confusing very easily (especially when it comes to remotes with the Harmony Hub). The closer you follow these instructions to the letter, and in the proper order, the less chance you have of running into a problem.
注意：如果可以，请尝试尽可能遵循这些说明。 尽管Logitech制造了一些出色的硬件，但它们的软件却不是很好，并且事情可能会变得一团糟，并且很容易造成混乱(特别是在使用Harmony Hub进行远程控制时)。 您越接近这些说明并按正确的顺序排列，遇到问题的机会就越少。
如何添加智能家居设备 (How to Add Your Smarthome Devices)
To add new smarthome devices to your Logitech Harmony remote, open the Harmony app on your phone or tablet and expand the right sidebar. Tap “Edit Devices” along the bottom.
要将新的智能家居设备添加到Logitech Harmony遥控器，请在手机或平板电脑上打开Harmony应用程序，然后展开右侧边栏。 点击底部的“编辑设备”。
Click the “+ Device” button that appears along the bottom to add a new device.
单击底部出现的“ +设备”按钮以添加新设备。
Select “Home Control” from the list, and choose the smarthome device you want to add. In this case, we’ll add our Philips Hue lights.
从列表中选择“家庭控制”，然后选择要添加的智能家庭设备。 在这种情况下，我们将添加我们的Philips Hue灯。
You may need to put your smart device into pairing mode–for us, this meant pressing the button on the Hue Bridge so our Harmony Hub could detect it.
您可能需要将智能设备设置为配对模式-对我们来说，这意味着按下色相桥上的按钮，以便我们的Harmony Hub可以检测到它。
From there, follow the on-screen instructions to import anything else you want (such as Philips Hue’s lighting scenes). When you’re done, click the Next arrow in the upper right corner.
从那里，按照屏幕上的说明导入您想要的其他任何内容(例如Philips Hue的照明场景)。 完成后，单击右上角的“下一步”箭头。
Your new device will appear in the right sidebar of the Harmony app. Repeat this with any other smarthome devices you want to add.
您的新设备将出现在Harmony应用程序的右侧栏中。 对要添加的任何其他智能家居设备重复此操作。
如何创建设备组以便于控制 (How to Create Groups of Devices for Easier Control)
Next, you may want to group certain devices together so you can control them easier. For example, we’ll add a few of our Hue bulbs to a group called “Living Room” so we can control all the living room lights at once with our Harmony remote.
接下来，您可能希望将某些设备分组在一起，以便可以更轻松地控制它们。 例如，我们将几个色相灯泡添加到名为“起居室”的组中，以便我们可以使用Harmony遥控器一次控制所有起居室的灯光。
Expand the right sidebar and tap “Edit Devices”.
展开右侧栏，然后点击“编辑设备”。
Tap the “+ Group” button that appears along the bottom.
点击底部出现的“ +组”按钮。
Give the group a name, and select the devices you want to belong to that group. Click the Next arrow to continue.
给组命名，然后选择要属于该组的设备。 单击下一步箭头继续。
Now, in the right sidebar, those lights will be grouped together so you can more easily control them.
现在，在右侧栏中，这些灯将被分组在一起，以便您可以更轻松地控制它们。
如何使用遥控器的按钮控制智能家居 (How to Control Your Smarthome with Your Remote’s Buttons)
Smarthome-enabled Harmony remotes have a set of buttons designed to control up to four smarthome devices–they’ll look like light bulbs and power outlets:
支持智能家居的Harmony遥控器具有一组按钮，这些按钮旨在控制多达四个智能家居设备，它们看起来就像灯泡和电源插座：
To assign functions to these buttons open up the Harmony app and tap the menu button in the top left-hand corner. Then head to Harmony Setup > Add/Edit Devices & Activities.
要将功能分配给这些按钮，请打开Harmony应用程序，然后点击左上角的菜单按钮。 然后转到“和谐设置”>“添加/编辑设备和活动”。
From there, tap the “Remote & Hub” category.
在此处，点击“远程和集线器”类别。
Select your remote from the list–in our case, “Harmony Elite”.
从列表中选择您的遥控器-在我们的例子中是“ Harmony Elite”。
Tap the “Home Control Buttons” option to customize those buttons.
点击“家庭控制按钮”选项以自定义这些按钮。
Select one of the buttons and tap the “Assign” button.
选择其中一个按钮，然后点击“分配”按钮。
Select the device(s) you want to control with that button. In our case, we’re going to control the “Living Room” group of lights we created earlier.
使用该按钮选择要控制的设备。 在我们的案例中，我们将控制我们之前创建的“客厅”灯组。
When you do, it’ll return you to the Home Control Buttons page. Unfortunately, you can’t customize what the buttons do–they are strangely limited–but you can see the button assignments below. In our case, a short press turns the lights on, a long press turns the lights off, and the rocker switch in the middle adjusts the brightness of those bulbs.
完成后，它将返回到“主页控制按钮”页面。 不幸的是，您无法自定义按钮的功能-奇怪的是，它们受到限制-但您可以在下面看到按钮的分配。 在本例中，短按可打开灯，长按可关闭灯，中间的翘板开关可调节那些灯泡的亮度。
We really, really, wish you could customize these functions, but Logitech apparently decided to leave this feature half-finished instead.
我们确实非常希望您可以自定义这些功能，但Logitech显然决定保留此功能的一半。
Repeat this process for the other buttons. When you’re done, tap the Next button to save your changes.
对其他按钮重复此过程。 完成后，点击下一步按钮保存更改。
如何创建活动来控制设备 (How to Create Activities to Control Your Devices)
If you want true customization of your smarthome devices, touch screen-enabled remotes allow you to create activities for your smarthome devices, from the very simple (“Dim Lights”) to the more complex (“Dim the lights, roll up the blinds, and start my home theater”). This is much, much more useful than the hardware buttons, which are surprisingly uncustomizable.
如果您想真正自定义智能家居设备，则启用触摸屏的遥控器可让您为智能家居设备创建活动，从非常简单的(“昏暗的灯光”)到更复杂的(“昏暗的灯光，卷帘，并开始我的家庭影院”)。 这比硬件按钮令人惊讶的无法自定义要有用得多。
To add activities, expand the left sidebar of the Harmony app and tap “Edit Activites”.
要添加活动，请展开Harmony应用程序的左侧栏，然后点击“编辑活动”。
Tap the “Add Activity” button that appears along the bottom.
点击底部出现的“添加活动”按钮。
On the next screen, choose “Add Your Own Activity”.
在下一个屏幕上，选择“添加您自己的活动”。
Give your activity a name and choose an icon for it. This is the icon that will appear on your remote. In our example, we’re creating an activity called “Lights Dim” that will dim our living room lights to 30%, perfect for watching a movie. Then click the Next arrow.
给您的活动命名并为其选择一个图标。 这是将显示在遥控器上的图标。 在我们的示例中，我们正在创建一个名为“ Lights Dim”的活动，该活动会将客厅的灯光调暗至30％，非常适合观看电影。 然后单击下一步箭头。
Next, select the devices involved in the activity. For this example, it’ll just be our three Living Room lights.
接下来，选择活动中涉及的设备。 在此示例中，它只是我们的三个起居室灯。
It will ask you what you want to do with the entertainment devices for this activity. In our case, we’re going to leave them alone, so we’ll choose “Leave everything as is”.
它将询问您要为此活动使用娱乐设备做什么。 在我们的案例中，我们将不理会它们，因此我们将选择“按原样保留所有内容”。
Next, you’ll adjust what happens when the activity starts, and what happens when the activity ends. Tap the Next arrow.
接下来，您将调整活动开始时发生的情况以及活动结束时发生的情况。 点击下一步箭头。
In our case, we want each light bulb to turn on at 30% dimming when the activity starts. So we’ll set up our lights on this screen…
在我们的例子中，我们希望每个灯泡在活动开始时以30％的亮度打开。 因此，我们将在此屏幕上设置灯光...
…and tap the Next arrow when finished.
…完成后，点击“下一步”箭头。
Repeat this process for when the activity ends. In our case, the activity will just be a one-time button press, so we won’t do anything here–we’ll press the Skip button.
活动结束时，请重复此过程。 在我们的例子中，活动只是一次按一下按钮，因此我们在这里将不做任何事情-我们将按“跳过”按钮。
And now we’re finished. This is a very simple example, but this can be very powerful. For example, you could create an activity called “Movie Night” That turns on your home theater, sets it to your Blu-Ray player, rolls down your smart blinds, and dims your smart light bulbs all at once. You can even set it to un-dim the lights when you switch to a different activity (by changing their state for the activity’s end). You’re only limited by your imagination…and how many smart devices you have in your house.
现在我们完成了。 这是一个非常简单的示例，但是它可能非常强大。 例如，您可以创建一个名为“电影之夜”的活动，该活动可以打开家庭影院，将其设置为蓝光播放器，将智能百叶窗滑下并同时使智能灯泡变暗。 您甚至可以将其设置为在切换到其他活动时取消灯光的暗淡(通过更改活动结束时的灯光状态)。 您仅受您的想象力限制……以及您家中有多少个智能设备。
Your home theater is more than just a TV and some speakers. The lights, the blinds, and even your thermostat are crucial to the ultimate home theater experience–so it only makes sense you’d be able to control them from your remote. Now you can go from basketball-watching mode to movie-watching mode with just a few button presses, all without getting up from your couch.
您的家庭影院不仅仅是电视和一些扬声器。 灯光，百叶窗甚至恒温器对于最终的家庭影院体验都是至关重要的–因此，只有能够从遥控器控制它们才有意义。 现在，您只需按几下按钮，就可以从篮球观看模式转到电影观看模式，而无需从沙发上起床。
