Harmony 550, TV comes on, then shuts off

I know it may not be this simple, but I have set up like 5 of those remotes for clients, I always have to remind them to make sure everything is off before starting from scratch trying a function.
That way they are not doing the opposite (On/Off) of what they are supposed to do.

It sounds like you just have the wrong input for your tv, Go to logitech;s web-site and reprogram your remote control is your other option.

Hi. Programming of the Harmony remote is done in the software, which you can download at http://logitech.com/myharmony.

You'll have to add the TiVo deivce by clicking 'Add Device', then set up an Activity for it. In the 'Activities' tab, click 'Add Activity', and select 'Watch TV (TiVo)'.

Hope that helps.

Try:

Learning the input commands for the audio device.

Increasing the inter-device delay and power-on delay for the audio device.

Click 'Learn IR' next to the icon for your DVR in the software, learn the command, then assign the command to a button in one of your Watch TV Activities.

Update your Harmony remote control software on your PC to the latest. Go into the TV device settings. The software should recognize if there is an update to your TV's IR commands. Try the same things with the DVR.

It's also possible the TV and/or DVR are locking up due to IR commands that are being sent too quickly. The remote has a setting for the delay between commands sent to the same device as well as the delay between commands sent to different devices. Try adjusting these settings:

1. In the Harmony remote software on your PC, click the "Devices" tab.
2. For the "TV" device, click the "Settings" button.
3. Click the dot next to "Adjust the delays" and click Next.
4. Adjust the "Inter-key" and "Inter-device" delays to something higher and click Next.
5. Follow the steps to save the changes.
   
6. Repeat steps 2-5 for your DVR device as well.
