✎

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

When using an HDMI/DVI cable connection, you must use the HDMI IN 1(DVI) jack for video. A DVD, Blu-ray

player, HD cable box, or HD STB satellite receiver may require a DVI-HDMI (DVI to HDMI) cable or DVI-HDMI (DVI to HDMI) adapter. The PC/DVI AUDIO IN jack is required for audio.

If an external device such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / HD cable box / HD STB satellite receiver supporting

HDMI version older than 1.3 is connected, the TV may operate abnormally (e.g. no screen display / no sound / annoying flicker / abnormal color).

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 DIGITAL 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 theater) is set to on, you can hear sound output from the TV’s optical jack. When the

TV is receiving a DTV signal, the TV will send 5.1 CH sound to the home theater 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 theater 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 theater.

✎

Headphones H: You can connect your headphones to the headphones output on your set. While the headphones are connected, the sound from the built-in speakers will be disabled.

Sound function may be restricted when connecting headphone to the TV.

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 TV’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 support DHCP also let you use Static IP addresses.

¦ Connecting to a Wireless Network

To connect your TV to your network wirelessly, you need a wireless router or modem and a Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter (WIS09ABGN, WIS09ABGN2, WIS10ABGN), which you connect to your TV’s back or side panel USB jack. See the illustration below.

To use the SWL(Samsung Wireless Link) function, connect to the USB 1 (HDD) port.

The LAN Port on the Wall

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 the video over a IEEE 802.11B/G connection, the video may not play smoothly.

✎

NOTE

You must use the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter” (WIS09ABGN, WIS09ABGN2, WIS10ABGN), to use a wireless

network. Samsung’s Wireless LAN Adapter is sold separately. The Samsung 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.

If your router, modem, or device isn’t certified, it may not connect to the TV via the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter.”

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

– Samsung Auto Conﬁguration – PBC (WPS) – Auto Setup (Using the Auto Network Search function) – Manual Setup – SWL(Samsung Wireless Link) – Ad-Hoc

The Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter may not be recognized or work properly when connecting via a USB hub or via

a USB extension cable other than the one available from Samsung.

✎

The Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter should be installed in an interference-free area in order to avoid interference between the adapter and tuner.

Network Setup (Samsung Auto Conﬁguration)

This function is available in APs (Access Points) that support Samsung Auto Conﬁguration. If your AP does not, you can connect through PBC (WPS), auto or manually.

✎

This function is available when SWL(Samsung Wireless Link) is set to Off.

✎

You can check for equipment that supports Samsung Auto Configuration on www.samsung.com.

How to set up using Samsung Auto Conﬁguration

1. Place the AP and TV next to each other and turn them

on.

✎

Because the booting times of applications differ, you may have to wait for approximately 2 minutes.

✎

If the LAN cable connected the WAN port of AP during Samsung Auto Configuration, you are able to complete until internet connection test. If you do not connect, Samsung Auto Configuration will check only device connecting of AP (Not check internet).

2. After 2 minutes, connect the Samsung Wireless LAN

Adapter to the TV. When the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter is established, the pop-up window appears.

3. As soon as a connection is established, place the AP in

parallel with the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter giving a gap no larger than 25cm.

4. Wait until the connection is automatically established.

✎

If Samsung Auto Conﬁguration does not connect your TV to your AP, a pop-up window appears on the screen notifying you of the failure. Reset the AP, and then try again. If the connection fails again, choose one of the other connection setup methods, PBC (WPS), auto, or manual.

5. After the connection is established, locate the sharer at the desired location.

✎

If the AP settings have been changed or it is the first time you use the new AP after purchase, you need to set up again beginning from Step 1.
