I use my Harmony in my bedroom but we typically set the sleep timer to turn off the TV. The next day, the Harmony still thinks the TV is on because I never turned it off with the remote. Any way around that???

Anytime a device is out of sync you can use the help button and the remote will fix it. If the TV is the only device you're using, just manually turn it on and use Device mode instead of the activity. If you use more devices (which I assume would be left on while the tv is off) then you'll have to use help or manually turn the TV back on before using the remote again.

If your TV supports the discrete PowerOn/Off commands (look for & try them in device mode), then reconfigure your TV device power settings accordingly.

Thank you, where would I find the discrete Power On/Off?

Hit Device, then select the TV and try any commands that look like power commands. If you send a command for power on multiple times and it turns on the TV the first time but does nothing after that, it's a discrete (meaning it only turns the TV on, not off). Same for the Off command. The opposite of discretes is a toggle - one button that turns it on, then off, then on.....etc. If you have discretes go to the device setup and Adjust Power Settings, telling it you have one button for on and a different button for off.

I remapped one of the LCD buttons to PowerToggle for the TV, i think that will solve it. Thanks everyone for the help.
