When using the remote for a Hunter fan-light the light will not turn on-off using the remote-it will turn on-off using the wall switch but the fan will turn on-off using the remote Any ideas?

The fan is wired to the house wrong. Typically the red switch wire in the ceiling box will be nutted off and not used when a remote is installed. Sounds like, in this case, the fan light wire (blue) was connected to the red switch wire in the ceiling box instead of being correctly connected to the remote unit at the fan.


Can turning a ceiling fan generate electricity by hand turning it?

Probably not. A ceiling fan's motor converts electricity into mechanical motion. While many electrical motors can also be run as generators ceiling fan designers most likely wouldn't include that feature in designs. Ceiling fans also have a capacitor to help generate enough torque to start a fan. Sending electricity back through a capacitor in the opposite direction is not recommended.


Can a Harmony 670 remote control a Harbor Breeze ceiling fan?

If the harmony website doesn't have a device listing for your fan, then you need to learn it. With the remote plugged in, and the harmony software running, you can select 'learn new command' somewhere in the menus. When it asks you to, point the original ceiling fan remote towards the back of the harmony, and teach it the buttons you wish to use. If you don't have the original fan remote, you may not be able to control it. Actually the main problem here is the 880 is not an RF remote and the Triton is an RF Fan. I use URC products so I am not sure what Harmony offers other than upgrading to the 890 remote. All you need to do is get something to translate your IR remote signals to RF for the fan.
