"
The number of connectors and their names and locations may vary depending on the model.
"
Refer to the external device's operating manual when connecting it to the TV. The number of external device connectors and their names and locations may vary depending on the manufacturer.
Connection notes for HDMI
Use an HDMI cable with a thickness of 14mm or less.
Using a non-certified HDMI cable may result in a blank screen or a connection error.
Some HDMI cables and devices may not be compatible with the TV due to different HDMI
specifications.
This TV does not support HDMI Ethernet Channel. Ethernet is a LAN (Local Area Network) built
with coaxial cables standardised by the IEEE.
Try a cable shorter than 3m to get the best UHD viewing quality.
HDCP 2.2 is supported only by the TV's HDMI (MHL) port. HDCP is short for "High bandwidth
Digital Content Protection" and is used for video copyright protection.
Many computer graphics adaptors do not have HDMI ports, but have DVI ports instead. If your
computer graphics adaptor has a DVI port, use an HDMI-to-DVI cable to connect the computer to the TV. For more information, refer to "Connecting with an HDMI-to-DVI cable."
If you are using an HDMI adapter, the TV recognises the signal as an HDMI signal and may
respond differently than it would to an MHL-to-HDMI cable connection.
Some features such as Smart Hub may not be available if the Source is set to HDMI and 3D Auto
View is set to Auto1 or Auto2. If this is the case, set 3D Auto View or 3D Mode to Off.
Connection notes for audio devices
For better audio quality, it is a good idea to use an AV receiver.
Connecting a device using an optical cable does not automatically turn off the TV speakers.
To turn off the TV's speakers, set Speaker Select ((MENU/123) MENU Sound Speaker
Settings Speaker Select) to something other than TV Speaker.
An unusual noise coming from the audio device while you are using it may indicate a
problem with the audio device itself. If this occurs, ask for assistance from the audio device's manufacturer.
Digital audio is only available with 5.1-channel broadcasts.
Only use headphones with a 3-conductor TRS type jack.
The headphone volume and the TV volume are adjusted independently of each other.
While the headphone is connected, the TV speakers are muted and certain Sound options are
deactivated.
Connection notes for computers
For the resolutions supported by the TV, refer to "Read Before Connecting a Computer (Supported
Resolutions)."
As long as file sharing is activated, unauthorised access may occur. When you do not need to
access data, disable file sharing.
Your PC and Smart TV must be connected on the same network.
Connection notes for mobile devices
To use the Screen Mirroring function, the mobile device must support a mirroring function
such as AllShare Cast or Screen Mirroring. To check whether your mobile device supports the mirroring function, please visit the mobile device manufacturer's website.
To use Wi-Fi Direct, the mobile device must support the Wi-Fi Direct function. Please check if
your mobile device supports Wi-Fi Direct.
The mobile device and your Smart TV must be connected with each other in the same network.
The video or audio may intermittently stop depending on network conditions.
Connection notes for Wireless PC Mirroring (or KINO TV)
The working distance may differ due to obstacles (e.g., human bodies, metal objects, or walls)
or electromagnetic environment. To ensure stable functioning, it is recommended to use the Wireless PC Mirroring Adapter (or KINO KIT, VG-SWD1000) in the same location where the TV is placed.
When a Wireless PC Mirroring Adapter (or KINO KIT, VG-SWD1000) is connected, the TV may
not play videos properly depending on whether there is another device that emits radio signals nearby.
Do not place the Wireless PC Mirroring Adapter (or KINO KIT, VG-SWD1000) near any heat
source, in a humid location, or under direct sunlight. This action may cause product malfunction or a fire.
Do not apply any of the following to the Wireless PC Mirroring Adapter (or KINO KIT, VG-
SWD1000): chemicals (e.g., wax, benzene, thinner, mosquito repellent, air freshener, lubricant) and cleaning agent that contains alcohol or solvent or that is surface active. This action may cause the dongle's exterior to discolour or its label to peel off.
Do not disassemble, repair or modify the Wireless PC Mirroring Adapter (or KINO KIT, VG-
SWD1000) by yourself. Stop using the dongle if it is damaged or broken.
Make sure to use a genuine Wireless PC Mirroring Adapter (or KINO KIT, VG-SWD1000) supplied
by Samsung Electronics.
