Logitech Harmony 890 Advanced Universal Remote Control (Discontinued by Manufacturer)
Imagine… controlling all your devices using only one remote - without a direct line of sight to the components! With the Harmony 890 Remote, you can wirelessly control your home entertainment system while hiding all those unsightly wires and components behind cabinet doors or a wall. Logitech's Harmony 890, an upgrade to the Harmony 880 remote control, usesboth radio frequency (RF) and infrared (IR) wireless signalsto deliver powerful complete control of your home-entertainment system that may be hidden behind cabinets. With a wireless range of up to 100 feet, the Harmony 890 remote sends RF commands to a wireless receiver, which then blasts infrared signals to the components. The Harmony 890 remote makes universal control for home entertainment and advanced lighting systems simple.Using Your Harmony Remote1.
