{mosgoogle}Preventative Maintenance

Be sure to clean the remote's contacts about twice a month with a Q-tip and rubbing alcohol. It's simple, and these items should already be in your bathroom. As for the remote entirely, you should be wiping it with a damp (not wet) cloth or just a dry cloth about every two weeks as well. Believe me, your remote will stay in great condition for a very long time. If you don't regularly clean your remote, anything and everything will accumulate in every little crevasse imaginable.

The 880's Transmitter & USB Connection

Taking a closer look at the 880's transmitter, we can see it is the very reliable type which is found in the Harmony 676 and other models. Two transmitters make for a stronger and more accurate signal. On the 676, the range was more than 25ft, and on the 880, it's the same.

The 880's IR Port

The 880 has a much different IR port than the other Logitech models. The IR port is wider and larger. This is an improvement over previous Logitech remotes and you have wider IR coverage of your other remote communicating with the 880.
