Could someone please give me a quick step by step guide, or just tell me, how to set up my Logitech Harmony 515 Remote for MySkyHDi, because I am struggling a little bit, even though it should be really easy.

the PVR should be a PACE TDS85nnz enter that under Devices and it should work , i then just went under settings to custom buttons and entered a few more buttons i used where i wanted them

Thank you for that, but could you please tell me a bit more, as in what activity to select when it comes up with these options:

Watch TV ( Digital cable, Basic cable, Antenna)Watch TV ( DVR or PVR other than TiVo)Watch TV ( TiVo)Watch TV ( Replay TV)Watch TV ( Media Center PC)
and also when you go into device setup, what do I choose under the headings Device, Manufacturer and Model?

to add devices go into device click add device, for device look under the drop down box and look for cable/sattelite box for sky and then sattelite look for pace and then enter the serial number do this for your tv and any other device that uses a remote . i have a sky box, tv and amp
from what i remember once you have set up all your devices you go into add activity and use the add activities automatically, it will give you a list of activities you can do pick one you want and then follow instructions. i use Watch TV ( DVR or PVR other than TiVo and then it will let you set how you set up your devices, just follow the instructions it all makes sense ,when you push the watch tv button on your remote which will be there after you update your remote, it will turn everything on and set your devices .

sorry, it should be a pace TDS850nnz

It would be watch TV (DVR or PVR) and the devices used will be the MySky (which you should have already setup as a device), the TV (ditto) and an audio system (if applicable).

To setup the My Sky as a device, it is Device: PVR, Manufacturer: Pace, Model: TDS850NNZ (the Black MySky - but that will probably work for all MySkys)

When you setup up the watch TV activity, it should ask what you use to change channels, where the audio comes out and wether or not you want to power the MySky or Audio down when you have finished the activity.

We are assuming that that you have loaded the software onto your pc and have connected the remote to the PC for programming?

If you can't laugh at yourself then you probably shouldn't laugh at others.

I think it does it through a webpage now? It's been a while since I needed to re-program mine.

Oh. OK. Been a while since I last had to reprogramme our one too.
