Samsung TV and Harmony 880 Remote

Does anyone have a Samsung TV and a Harmony remote that can help me with delays so that it switches the mode quicker?

I don't use Harmony, I use the URC remotes, but how does adding a delay make mode changes quicker? Adding a delay adds time between commands and thus makes things slower.

You add delays, if for example, a certain device cannot accept IR commands for a few seconds after it is powered on (there are workarounds for that such as arranging the macro in a different order) or in the case of the URC remotes to create a 'push and hold' macro that is only executed when you hold the button for a set period of time.

The Harmony remotes are centered around the activity based setup and using the web app to completely program it but can be tweaked and the principles behind what needs to be done are all the same between remotes (the implementation differs). So what is the problem you are trying to address?

I don't want to add a delay I want to change the delay on the proper area of the Harmony software. I know that adding a delay makes it longer. That is why it is long is because the delay is set wrong. On another forum some time ago when I had a different Samsung TV I was able to know which one to change but can't find that post anymore. So I was hoping someone else has a Samsung TV and Harmony remote with a help.
