Upon doing some further investigation, I found the following thread
http://forums.logitech.com/t5/Harmony-Remotes-Programming/Fully-working-iMON-VFD-PAD-config/td-p/77098/page/3

that suggests that I might have better luck selecting "Silverstone LC
20-M" as the remote type. Can I ask what remote types people are
choosing when programming their Harmony remotes against an imon IR
receiver.

I have an Antec Micro Fusion 350 case.
