Connecting to an AV Device

Using an HDMI / DVI Cable: HD connection (up to 1080p)

Available devices: DVD, Blu-ray player, HD cable box, HD STB (Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver, cable box, satellite receiver (STB)

HDMI IN 1(DVI), 2, 3, 4 / PC/DVI AUDIO IN

✎

When using an HDMI/DVI cable connection, you must use the xHDMI IN 1(DVI) jack. For the DVI cable connection, use a DVI to HDMI cable or DVI-HDMI (DVI to HDMI) adapter for video connection and the

PC/DVI AUDIO IN jacks for audio.

If an external device such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box /

STB satellite receiver supporting a HDMI versions older than 1.3 is connected, the T V may operate abnormally (e.g. no screen display / no sound / annoying flicker / abnormal colour).

If there is no sound after connecting an HDMI cable, check the HDMI version of the external device. If you

suspect the version is older than 1.3, contact the provider of the device to confirm the HDMI version and request an upgrade.

It is recommended you purchase an HDMI-certified cable. Otherwise, the screen may appear blank or a

connection error may occur.

DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL)

✎

When a digital audio system is connected to the xDIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack, decrease the volume of both the TV and the system.

5.1 CH (channel) audio is available when the TV is connected to an external device supporting 5.1 CH.

When the receiver (home theatre) is set to on, you can hear sound output from the TV’s xoptical jack. When the TV is receiving a DTV signal, the TV will send 5.1 CH sound to the home theatre receiver. When the source is a digital component such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB (Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver and is connected to the TV via HDMI, only 2 CH audio will be heard from the home theatre receiver. If you want to hear 5.1 CH audio, connect the digital audio out jack from your DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB satellite receiver directly to an amplifier or home theatre.

AUDIO OUT

✎

: Connects to the audio input jacks on your amplifier / DVD home theatre.

When connecting, use the appropriate connector.

When an audio amplifier is connected to the xAUDIO OUT jacks: Decrease the volume of the TV and adjust the volume level with the Amplifier’s volume control.

You can set up your TV so that it can access the Internet through your local area network (LAN) using a wired or wireless connection.

Connecting to a Wired Network ¦

You can attach your TV to your LAN using cable in three ways:

You can attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV to an external modem using a Cat y 5 cable. See the diagram below.

The Modem Port on the Wall

You can attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV to a IP Sharer which is connected y to an external modem. Use Cat 5 cable for the connection. See the diagram below.

Depending on how your network is conﬁgured, you may be able to attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN y port on the back of your TV directly to a network wall outlet using a Cat 5 cable. See the diagram below. Note that the wall outlet is attached to a modem or router elsewhere in your house.

If you have a Dynamic Network, you should use an ADSL modem or router that supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers that support DHCP automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values your TV needs to access the Internet so you don’t have to enter them manually. Most home networks are Dynamic Networks. Some networks require a Static IP address. If your network requires a Static IP address, you must enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values manually on your T V’s Cable Setup Screen when you set up the network connection. To get the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP). If you have a Windows computer, you can also get these values through your computer.

You can use ADSL modems that support DHCP if your network requires a Static IP address. ADSL modems that

Connecting Wireless Network ¦

To connect your TV to your network wirelessly, you need a wireless router or modem and a Samsung Wireless LAN Adaptor (WIS09ABGN), which you connect to your TV’s back or side panel USB jack. See the illustration below.

Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter is sold separately and is offered by select retailers, Ecommerce sites and Samsungparts. com. Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter supports the IEEE 802.11A/B/G and N communication protocols. Samsung recommends using IEEE 802.11N. When you play video over a IEEE 802.11B/G connection, the video may not play smoothly.

✎

NOTE

You must use the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter” (WIS09ABGN) to use a wireless network.

Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter is sold separately. The WIS09ABGN Wireless LAN adapter is offered by select

retailers, Ecommerce sites and Samsungparts.com. To use a wireless network, your TV must be connected to a wireless IP sharer. If the wireless IP sharer supports

DHCP, your TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network. Select a channel for the wireless IP sharer that is not currently being used. If the channel set for the wireless IP sharer

is currently being used by another device nearby, this will result in interference and communication failure. If you apply a security system other than the systems listed blow, it will not work with the TV.

If Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode is selected and the Encryption type is set to WEP, TKIP or

TKIPAES (WPS2Mixed) for your AP, Samsung TVs will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications.

If your AP supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect to the network via PBC (Push Button Configuration)

or PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically configure the SSID and WPA key in either mode. Keep the Samsung Wireless LAN Adaptor at a distance from the TV. If you watch the TV with the adaptor connected

nearby, images may appear corrupted for some channels. If your router, modem, or device isn’t, it may not connect to the TV via the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter.”

Connection Methods x: You can setup the wireless network connection six ways.

If Your TV Fails to Connect to the Internet

Your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet because your ISP has permanently registered the MAC address (a unique identifying number) of your PC or modem, which it then authenticates each time you connect to the Internet as a way of preventing unauthorized access. As your TV has a different MAC address, your ISP can not authenticate its MAC address, and your TV can not connect.

To resolve this problem, ask your ISP about the procedures required to connect devices other than a PC (such as your TV) to the Internet.

If your Internet service provider requires an ID or assword to connect to the Internet, your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet. If this is the case, you must enter your ID or password when connecting to the Internet.

The internet connection may fail because of a ﬁrewall problem. If this is the case, contact your Internet service

provider. If you cannot connect to the Internet even after you have

followed the procedures of your Internet service provider, please contact Samsung Electronics at 1-800-SAMSUNG.

Anynet+

What is Anynet+?

Anynet+ is a function that enables you to control all connected Samsung devices that support Anynet+ with your Samsung TV’s remote. The Anynet+ system can be used only with Samsung devices that have the Anynet+ feature. To be sure your Samsung device has this feature, check if there is an Anynet+ logo on it.

To connect to Home Theatre

1. Connect the HDMI IN (1(DVI), 2, 3 or 4) jack on the TV and the HDMI OUT jack of the corresponding Anynet+ device

using an HDMI cable.

2. Connect the HDMI IN jack of the home theatre and the HDMI OUT jack of the corresponding Anynet+ device using an HDMI cable.

NOTE ✎

Connect the Optical cable between the

DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack on your TV and the Digital Audio Input

on the Home Theatre. When following the connection above, the Optical jack only outputs 2 channel audio. You will only hear sound

from the Home Theatre’s Front Left and Right speakers and the subwoofer. If you want to hear 5.1 channel audio, connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack on the DVD / satellite box (i.e. Anynet Device 1 or 2) directly to the Amplifier or Home Theatre, not the TV.

Connect only one Home Theatre.

You can connect an Anynet+ device using the HDMI cable. Some HDMI cables may not support Anynet+ functions.

Anynet+ works when the AV device supporting Anynet+ is in the standby or on status.

Anynet+ supports up to 12 AV devices in total. Note that you can connect up to 3 devices of the same type.
