You can program the Favorites on your Harmony remote to jump to your favorite channels. For example, if you program the first favorite on your remote screen to channel 56, your device will tune to channel 56 when you press it.
To create favorite channel shortcuts if you have no favorites set up yet
Before you begin, connect your Harmony remote to your computer using the USB cable. Log in to your Harmony account and complete the following steps:
- Click the Favorites tab.
- Select the device you want to customize channel assignments for (most people use their cable / satellite receiver, so this is selected by default if you have one). Click Setup your favorite channels.
- Enter a channel number (type the channel exactly as you would enter it on your remote - for example, if you go to channel 56 by pressing the 0, 5, and 6 buttons, type 056 for your favourite) and type a label or select an icon. Click Add a Channel. Repeat for other channels.
NOTE: If you have a Harmony 650 or 700, you can select an icon. If you have a Harmony 600, you cannot select an icon (you can enter a label only, icons are not displayed).
- When you are finished adding channels, click OK.
The page displays information about what favorite channel assignments are currently mapped for the device you selected, including:- A mock-up of the remote screen organized into ‘pages’. Click a channel to see details of the channel.

- A Favorite Channel Setup area with fields for viewing/editing your favorite channel assignments for each of the screen options on your Harmony remote.
