The devices to be controlled are my computer and my speaker amplifier. But I will cover general requirements of the configuration. I won't go into using the Harmony or Flirc configuration software, you can find that info using your favorite internet search engine.

Logitech: Modifier key combinations only work when they are already in the listed functions, but modifier keys can be used by themselves.įLIRC: Modifier keys can be used in any combination you can think of, but they cannot be used by themselves. I am using both the Bluetooth keyboard function of the Logitech and of the FLIRC because of the modifier key limitations of both: Windows 10 is what I'm using, I don't know if earlier versions will work as well.
