The keymap file allows you to reprogram the default key mappings for a custom purpose. The file does not exist by default, so it has to be created. Official XBMC Wiki
Create a text file named keyboard.xml inCode:C:\users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\keymaps\
Paste the following:
ExplanatonCode:<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<k>UpdateLibrary(video)</k>
<w>ToggleWatched</w>
<two>JumpSMS2</two>
<three>JumpSMS3</three>
<four>JumpSMS4</four>
<five>JumpSMS5</five>
<six>JumpSMS6</six>
<seven>JumpSMS7</seven>
<eight>JumpSMS8</eight>
<nine>JumpSMS9</nine>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>
k - a key that I use to force a library update
w - Toggles the 'watched' indicator
2...9 allows the number keys to type letters like an SMS message on a standard phone

I am using the remote as a standard keyboard basically, using the standard Windows hotkeys. In the Harmony software it is identified as 'Media Center PC'
Since the Harmony software can't send specific commands, I needed to create a work around. I remembered that you could create a shortcut icon on your desktop that sends the sleep command.
How-to here
I then used AutoHotKey to map that shortcut to the F12 button. In the Harmony software the Power Off command sends the F12 button, which in turn activates the shortcut which puts the system to sleep.
To wake the PC, use the Power Toggle command within the Harmony software

And is it possible to get the harmony remote to turn the pc on? via the usb ir receiver?

To set it to shut down you can either create a short cut and set a bind to say F12 then add that to your configuration. The alternative is in windows to change the function of the power button to enter shutdown instead of sleep/hibernation. Then just make sure that you set the proper command in your controller. I haven't set it up but it shouldnt be too hard (there is a part in the harmony config where you can tell it what command to send for shutdown).
In order to turn PC on via usb receiver then your motherboard has to support it. I know the asrock does when enabled in the bios, but not sure about the rest, there is a thread where they talk about this in the forum. Though aparently its a problem if you hook up 2 devices (such as the IR receiver and a keyboard) since then the boot up wont work.
