Top 20 Logitech Harmony 880 LCD Remote Control - Page 8 Questions & Answers

I saw these posts recently and decided I would try and figure out the time on my Harmony 880.

First, using your Logitech Harmony remote software, version 7.5.0, log on using your login ID and password.

Next, select the remote settings tab, and go to display settings. Select time/display format and check the 24 hour format. (Note: the assumption is that you have already set the 12 hour time before hand, even though is says A.M.) I made this change to my own remote when it was actually was 7:30 P.M.
My remote actually reported 7:30 A.M. at this point. Save your changes online and plug in your remote to your USB port and let the Harmony update your change. Now your remote should be in 24 hour format.

Finally, log back on using the same procedure above only this time, click the check box for 12 hour format, save your changes and update your Harmony 880 one last time. Your finished, your remote should now be displaying the correct time in 12 hour format.

I had the same problem on my 676. I split the casing and cleaned the contacts and the bottom of the buttons with isopropyl alchohol about a month ago. Works fine now.

Do you use a Home Theater receiver along with your televison?  Are other components, such as a DVD player, VCR, Blu-ray player, etc. connected?
If so, it's possible that the Mute function on your remote is muting the sound from your receiver, and not the TV itself.
If that's the case, you'll need to look at the details of the "default" buttons for your activities, and see whether the Mute function is associated with your TV or your receiver.  If it's set for the receiver, you need to change it to be associated with the TV.

If the battery was out for that long, it's likely that the remote lost its programming.  Did you try reattaching it to the website after the battery had recharged, so that the programming could be restored?

you set it up online first that only takes 10 mins. setting up your devices then only takes about 10 or 15 mins and tell your installer to switch to decaf...

Assumption: the remote did not in any way receive physical damage including any sort of moisture or liquid inside.

Aside from you replacing the battery which you already indicated, I would recommend you contact Logictech technical support.

One more thing you may want to try is to take a soft pencil eraser and make sure the three gold contacts are clean by rubbing each with the eraser to insure good contact when sitting in the charge cradle.

just unplug every thing from the back of the devivces and reconnect it and check out again.it could also be possible that the audio cables may have gone faulty.just replace them and check out.

You don't. The screen dims to save battery.

you may need to reprogram your remote, or, if you have your profile setup on the harmony website, reload from there

I did some more searching and it sounds like the IR emitters die. People see to have sucess with replacing the emitters with new or ones from an old remote. I will find out :)

The software is available for free from the logitech website:

The USB cable is a USB to Mini ISB cable and is available at any elextronics store.

The charger is the first item available for purchase here: http://www.buylogitech.com/store/logius/en_US/DisplayCategoryProductListPage/categoryID.11197400

I have had the same problem, I ended up replacing the IR LED's in the front, and it fixed it - I have no idea why they stopped working, LED's are supposed to be good for at least 10,000 hours continuous use.
Strange, but since buying a replacement was $200 + and the LED's were around $4. it made sense to replace them...
Hope this helps. 

I did not do an exhaustive search, but the logitech website will sell you one for the same price as Best Buy, and it isn't on backorder:

Sometimes you need to go into the menu page for the device that doesn't work and you need to "learn" the keys to the new remote. "Learn" meaning pressing the buttons on your original remote with the Infrared part of the remote facing the Infrared part of the new remote. This will help the Harmony remote duplicate the signal to the device you want to operate.

well..that's an issue..most of these small device folks have no strategy for this sort of thing..only suggestion is find one that's been blown internally, disassemble it, and swap the screens. welcome to the new disposable electronic strategy
