yyIf you want to access the Internet directly on your display, the Internet connection should always be on.

yyIf you cannot access the Internet, check the network conditions from a PC on your network.

yyWhen you use Network Setting, check the LAN cable or check if DHCP in the router is turned on.

yyIf you do not complete the network settings, the network may not work properly.

Tips for Network setting

yyUse a standard LAN cable with this display. Cat5 or better with a RJ45 connector.

yyMany network connection problems during set up can often be fixed by re-setting the router or modem. After connecting the display to the home network, quickly power off and/or disconnect the power cable of the home network router or cable modem. Then power on and/or connect the power cable again.

yyDepending on the internet service provider (ISP), the number of devices that can receive internet service may be limited by the applicable terms of service. For details, contact your ISP.

yyLG is not responsible for any malfunction of the display and/or the internet connection feature due to communication errors/malfunctions associated with your internet connection, or other connected equipment.

yyLG is not responsible for problems within your internet connection.

yyYou may experience undesired results if the network connection speed does not meet the requirements of the content being accessed. yySome internet connection operations may not be possible due to certain restrictions set by the Internet service provider (ISP) supplying

your Internet connection.

yyAny fees charged by an ISP including, without limitation, connection charges are your respon sibility.

yyA 10 Base-T or 100 Base-TX LAN port is required when using a wired connection to this display. If your internet service does not allow for such a connection, you will not be able to connect the display.

yyA DSL modem is required to use DSL service and a cable modem is required to use cable modem service. Depending on the access method of and subscriber agreement with your ISP, you may not be able to use the internet connection feature contained in this display or you may be limited to the number of devices you can connect at the same time. (If your ISP limits sub scription to one device, this display may not be allowed to connect when a PC is already connected.)

yyThe use of a router may not be allowed or its usage may be limited depending on the policies and restrictions of your ISP. For details, contact your ISP directly.

yyIf the USB HDD does not have an external power source, the USB device may not be detected. So be sure to connect the external power source.

-Please use a power adaptor for an external power source.

yyIf your USB memory device has multiple partitions, or if you use a USB multi-card reader, you can use up to 4 partitions or USB memory devices.

yyIf a USB memory device is connected to a USB multi-card reader, its volume data may not be detected.

yyIf the USB memory device does not work properly, disconnect and reconnect it.

yyHow fast a USB memory device is detected differs from device to device.

yyIf the USB is connected in Standby Mode, that drive will automatically be loaded when the display is turned on.

yyThe recommended capacity is 1 TB or less for a USB external hard disk and 32 GB or less for USB memory.

yyAny device with more than the recommended capacity may not work properly.

yyIf a USB external hard disk with a Energy Saving function does not work, turn the hard disk off and on again to make it work properly.

yyUSB storage devices below USB 2.0 are supported as well. But they may not work properly with videos.

yyA maximum of 999 folders or files can be recognized under one folder.

yyIt is recommended you use a certified USB storage device and cable. Otherwise, a USB storage device may not be detected or a playback error may occur.

yyOnly a USB memory device can be used to play back the files distributed and stored by SuperSign Manager. A USB hard disk or multi-card reader will not work.

yyOnly an FAT 32 file formatted storage device can play back the files distributed and stored by SuperSign manager.

yyA USB 3.0 storage device may not work.

yyDo not remove the Signage device (internal storage device) or turn off the display while copying a file from the USB device to the Signage device or deleting a file in the Signage device. The device may be damaged or the system may be affected.

yyThe Copy and Delete functions may not be available if you use a USB device formatted by the NTFS file system, which is provided by the Windows operating system, or a readonly storage device.

yyIf the files of the contents list are in the storage device connected to the monitor set, the content is played when the monitor is powered on. When both USB storage device and internal storage device are connected to the monitor, the monitor plays the content of the most recently recognized storage device.
