Network Configuration

Connecting the TV to a network gives you access to online services such as the Smart Hub as well as software updates.

There are three ways to connect the TV to a Local Area Network (LAN).
External Modem
●
① IP Router + ② External Modem
●

Wireless Network

Connect the TV to the Internet using a standard router or modem.
Wireless Network Precautions
This TV supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g /n communication protocols. Samsung recommends using
●
IEEE 802.11n. Otherwise when you play video over a network connection, the video may not play smoothly.
To use a wireless network, the TV must be connected to a wireless router or modem. If the
●
wireless router supports DHCP, the TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.
Select a channel that is not currently in use for the wireless router. If the channel set for the
●
wireless router is currently being used by another device, the result is usually interference and/or a communications failure.
Most wireless networks have an optional security system. To enable a wireless network's security
●
system, you need to create a security key using characters and numbers. This security key is then needed to connect to the wireless network.
Network Security Protocols
The TV only supports the following wireless network security protocols and is unable to connect to non-certified wireless routers:
Authentication Modes: WEP, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK
●
Encryption Types: WEP, TKIP, AES
●
If the wireless router has been set to Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode and the Encryption Type to WEP or TKIP, Samsung TVs will not support the connection in compliance with the new Wi-Fi certification specifications.
If the wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), it is possible to connect to the network using PBC (Push Button Configuration) or a PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS automatically configures the SSID and WPA key settings.

Dynamic versus Static IP Addresses

If the network requires a dynamic IP address, use an ADSL modem or router that supports the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers that support DHCP automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS values the TV needs to access the Internet, so they do not have to be entered manually. Most home networks use a dynamic IP address.
If the network requires a static IP address, enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values manually when setting up the network connection. To get the IP address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS values, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
If the network requires a static IP address, use an ADSL modem that supports DHCP. ADSL modems that support DHCP also allow static IP addresses.

Motion Control
Motion Control works by using the camera, so the user must be within the camera's recognition range. The camera's recognition range varies depending on the ambient light level and other factors. Run
Motion Control Environment Test before using Motion Control to determine the camera's recognition
range. User may experience physical fatigue when using Motion Control for extended periods.
Voice Recognition
For the best Voice Recognition experience, we recommend that you use a Smart Touch Control.
Voice Recognition is not available in all languages, dialects or regions. The performance varies depending on the language chosen, voice volume and ambient noise levels in the surrounding area.
Perform a Voice Recognition Environment Test prior to using Voice Recognition to test the level and clarity and the ambient sound of the surrounding area.
Voice Text Input requires the user's agreement with any third-party app’s voice privacy policy and to provide Samsung with the user's MAC address and other private information.
Voice Text Input lets users enter text using voice commands instead of a mouse, keyboard or remote control. This feature is particularly useful for searching, browsing the web, and using applications that require text input.
You must agree to the following privacy notices before using Interactive Voice Recognition:

Voice Recognition lets you access and control specific functions of the TV using voice commands. For the accurate recognition of voice commands, pronounce words and phrases clearly in the language selected in Language. The TV's clock has to be set before you use Voice Recognition. Set the Clock (System > Time > Clock).
Voice Recognition can be used in the following ways:
Using the TV's built-in microphone (from a distance)
●
Using the VOICE button (up close)
●
Ambient noise can interfere with voice recognition. If this is the case, press the VOICE button and then say the command word/phrase 10cm to 15cm away from the microphone on the Smart Touch Control. Commands may not be recognized if you speak too softly or loudly. The optimal volume is approximately 75 ~ 80 dB.

Operating Environment

Voice Recognition and the Turn TV On voice command should be used within 4m of the TV.
Perform a Voice Recognition Environment Test prior to using Voice Recognition to test the level and clarity and the ambient sound of the surrounding area. Ambient noise can cause Voice Recognition to malfunction. (Suitable Ambient Noise Level: Less than 40 dB, *40 dB - the sound at library or residential area in the daytime.) Visit the Samsung website for a list of standard voice commands.
The voice recognition rate varies depending on the volume/tone, pronunciation, and ambient environment (TV sound and ambient noise).

Face Recognition

Users can register their faces and log into their Smart Hub accounts through Face Recognition. One face may be registered per account. Depending on the ambient brightness level and the user's skin tone, the TV may have difficulty recognizing the user's face.

Operating Environment

Users should be located between 1.5m and 4m from the camera. The actual recognition range may vary depending on the camera angle and other factors.

Note the following when using Face Recognition:
Do not cover your face with a hat, a pair of sunglasses, or your hair.
●
The user's entire face must be visible to the camera. Avoid shadows over your face. Shadows
●
prevent the camera from recognizing your face accurately.
Keep your expression as neutral as possible. In addition, keep your mouth closed but at the same
●
time as neutral as possible.
User's facial expression when logging into your Samsung account must be the same as the facial
●
expression during the registration process.

Precautions

To set up a Schedule Recording, you must first set the TV's clock. Set the Clock from System >
●
Time > Clock.
Recordings are DRM-protected and therefore cannot be played back on a computer or on a
●
different TV. In addition, these files cannot be played back on your TV if its video circuit is replaced.
A USB hard drive with a speed of 5,400rpm or above is recommended.
●
A USB memory Stick is not supported.
●
The total recording capacity may vary depending on the amount of available hard drive space
●
and the recording quality level.
Schedule Recording requires at least 100MB of free space on the USB storage device. Recording
●
will stop if the available storage space falls below 50MB while recording is in progress.
If the available storage space falls below 500MB while the Schedule Recording and Timeshift
●
unctions are in progress, only the recording will stop.
Page 84
The maximum recording time is 360 minutes.
●
The TV's settings apply when playing back recordings and using the Timeshift function.
●
If the input signal is changed while recording is in progress, the screen will go blank until the
●
switch is made. Recording will resume, but will not be available.
Device Performance Test must be performed on the USB storage device connected to the TV
●
before a recording can be made. A Device Performance Test can be performed from Photos,
Videos & Music > Recorded TV. If recording is selected from Guide or the Program Info and the
USB storage device has failed the Device Performance Test, the TV will initiate Format Device and conduct Device Performance Test again.
When using the recording function, the actual recording may start a second or two later than the
●
specified time.
If the Schedule Recording function is running at the same time as a recording is being made on
●
an HDMI-CEC-compliant external device, the priority is given to the Schedule Recording function.
Connecting a TV-recording USB device automatically deletes abnormally saved Timeshift and
●
recording files.
If Off Timer or Auto Power Off has been configured, the TV will override the setting if recording
●
is in progress at the specified time and turn off after the recording has ended.

Timeshift

This TV offers a Timeshift function, a feature that lets you pause and rewind live TV as you would with a DVD. However, Timeshift is only available for digital channels. In addition, activating the Timeshift function disables the Broadcasting menu.

Precautions

Recordings are DRM-protected and therefore cannot be played back on a computer or on a
●
different TV. In addition, these files cannot be played back on your TV if its video circuit is replaced.
The maximum amount of time available for the Timeshift function is 90 minutes.
●
The Timeshift function is not available for locked channels.
●
A USB hard drive with a speed of 5,400rpm or above is recommended.
●
A USB memory Stick is not supported.
●
Device Performance Test must be performed on the USB storage device connected to the TV
●
before the Timeshift function can be used. You can use the diagnose Device Performance Test by selecting Recorded TV of the Photos, Videos & Music.
The total recording capacity may vary depending on the amount of available hard drive space
●
and the recording quality level.
The TV's settings apply when playing back recordings and using the Timeshift function.
●
Connecting a TV-recording USB device automatically deletes abnormally saved Timeshift and
●
recording files.
The Timeshift function may terminate automatically once it reaches its maximum capacity.
●
The Timeshift function requires at least 1.5GB of free space available on the USB storage device.
●
Launching an application, switching to an analog channel, and otherwise changing the TV to
●
a state that does not support the Timeshift function automatically terminates the Timeshift function. The Timeshift operation will resume if the TV is changed back to a digital channel again.
