Read before connecting an Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) device

Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC)-enabled devices must be connected to the TV with an HDMI cable. Note that some HDMI cables may not support Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC).

You can fi the TV's Universal Remote to control third-party cable boxes, Blu-ray players, and home theaters that do not support HDMI-CEC. For more information, refer to "Controlling External Devices with a Samsung Remote Control - Using the Universal Remote."

Anynet+ cannot be used to control external devices that do not support HDMI-CEC.

The TV remote control may not work under certain circumstances. If this occurs, set up the device as an Anynet+ (HDMI- CEC)-enabled device again.

Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) works only with external devices that support HDMI-CEC, and when those devices are either in standby mode or turned on.

Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) can control up to 12 compliant external devices (up to 3 of the same type) except for home theaters. Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) can control only one home theater system.

To listen to 5.1 channel audio from an external device, connect the device to the TV via an HDMI cable and connect a 5.1 home theater system directly to the external device's digital audio output connector.

If an external device has been set up for both Anynet+ and a universal remote control, the device can be controlled only with the universal remote control.
