A Few Harmony One Setup Issues

[Hairy Hippy]

Remote: Harmony One
PCH: A-100

I use a OneClick Intellipanel. My AV Receiver is plugged into the master socket and the Sky HD Box into the "Sky" socket (so the Sky Box is permanently powered). The great thing about these is that when you turn off the master (AV Receiver) it powers everything down completely (except Sky) and therefore a good energy saver.

It's taken me a while but finally have managed to get my Harmony One working with this set up (a lot of fiddling around with inter-device delay settings).

Anyway, that was just a bit of background and this post is really relating to some issues I'm having with regards the Harmony and PCH.

Issue 1:
How do I program the remote for reboot and shutdown commands?

Issue 2:
I want the PCH to either be in standby or in shutdown mode when it isn't being used but when the system is first powered up using say the watch Sky activity, everything that isn't being used for that purpose is suppose to be in standby. The only component that isn't is the PCH. This is because when the OneClick is powered up, it powers up the everything either into standby or on. In the case of the PCH, it doesn't start in standby as it's going through it's boot cycle. Any idea how to stop this or program the remote to put the PCH into standby with out using some ridiculously long delay signal?

Issue 3:
When system already on and working using the Popcorn Hour activity it boots in my Aeon YAMJ movie wall. However if I then switch activity to say Sky and then switch back, it tries to play a movie. How do I stop it from doing that?

Issue 4:
Not related to the Harmony but is there anyway to get the A-100 out of a full shutdown (Pwr+Delete) without pulling out the power cable or switching of the plug?
However if there is, then I thing I can program the Harmony to bring it out of full shutdown mode.

TeMpL sorry for the slow response! Thanks for you help. Many issue where resolved by switching to A-210 as my A-100 died shortly after I'd finally configured the Harmony
