The universal remote control feature lets you control cable boxes, Blu-ray players, home theatres, and other external devices
connected to the TV using the TV's remote control. In order to use the TV's remote control as a universal remote, you must
first connect the IR extender cable (included).
- You can also use the Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) function to operate some external Samsung devices with your TV's remote
control without any additional setup. For more information, refer to the e-Manual.
- Certain external devices connected to the TV may not support the universal remote feature.
Setting Up the Universal Remote Control
Connect the IR extender cable to the TV's IR output connector as shown in the diagram and place the transmitter end within
10 cm of the external device's receiver pointing in the direction of the remote receiver. However, there must be no obstacles
between the IR extender cable and the external device. The presence of obstacles interferes with the transmission of the
remote control signal.
- When you use an external device registered with the Universal Remote Control on the Samsung Smart Control, you can
use the external device without connecting an IR extender cable. However, if you want to use an external device using
Voice Control
, be sure to connect an IR extender cable.
