Dear Mr. Petersen,

We recently received a number of PS3 adapters with PID: LZ93775.
During testing they still show the inconsistent behavior as described in my message of October 11 last.
Again, I should very much appreciate an answer as to my message of October 11 last.
Regards,
R.C.

First off, I use a logitech remote along with a wireless extender to control everything in my entertainment system. All my commands are routed through the wireless extender to free me of any line of sight issues. I recently acquire the PS3 adapter, but I am having issues configuring the activity using to transmit through my wireless extender and in turn transmitting to the PS3 adapter. I am missing all the simple commands under activity, but if I go to devices the controls are available to pause/FF/REW/Play, etc.

I would like to continue to control everything through my wireless extender, and not have to toggle between device and activity to play (Device) and adjust the volume (Activity). Does anyone know a resolution to this issue?

Thank you Troy, I discovered that my harmony adaptor was from “the first batch” of adaptors, and that is why I was having problems. Logitech told me that they will be replacing it soon. I was told that PID’s LZ922 and below were the ones affected.

Hi Anders,

The PS3 can be connected to seven Bluetooth controllers at once, so the Harmony Adapter can be connected to the PS3 at the same time as up to six game controllers. The only limitation is that the PS3 can connect to only one Bluetooth remote at any time, so you wouldn’t be able to use both our Harmony Adapter and the Sony remote at the same time – but not sure why you’d want to do that anyway

I hope that answers your question.

Cheers,
Troy

Dear Mr. Petersen,

We have one unit of a later production batch, which unit works as expected during operation.
However, we observed the following inconsistent behavior;

When using a “switched multi-way extension socket” to power on (amongst others) the PlayStation 3 as well as the Logitech PS3 adapter,
the PS3 adapter activates the PlayStation 3 without giving any command with the remote control.

We should be very pleased if you investigate this problem as well.
Thanks in advance for your well appreciated cooperation.

Look forward with interest to receive your well appreciated advice.

Regards,
R.C.

Will it ever be possible to use the harmony adaptor AND have two controllers connected? (Instead of just one controller…)

Hi Troy,
I am planning to get me one from Future Shop (Canada) this week, but I would like to avoid any trouble.
So it would be great if I knew beforehand what PID I don’t want to get, instead of needing to run into the problem / calling support?

Is there currenlty any way around it?
Do you know if all currently sold units should NOT have the bug?

Basically as R.C. was asking: Could you please inform us which PID numbers are OK and which are not?

Thanks,
JC
