Network Configuration

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

Wired Network

There are three ways to connect the TV to a Local Area Network (LAN).

- External Modem

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.

Wireless Network

Connect the TV to the Internet using a standard router or modem.

SAMSUNG UA50F6800DK - Wireless Network - 1

natural_image Two wireless devices: a remote control unit and a router connected to a power outlet, both with Wi-Fi signal icons (no text or labels visible)

Using the wireless LAN adapter may cause image retention or radio interference on some TV channels. In those cases, use one of the following methods.

• Use a vertical-type wireless LAN adapter.
- Connect the wireless LAN adapter to a USB extension cable, and insert the cable's USB plug into one of the TV's USB ports. Install the wireless LAN adapter on the top of the TV's back using an adhesive tape.

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.

For LED 4500 and 5300 series

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 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 SMART 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.

Under some circumstances and under certain legal conditions, the use/misuse of the TV camera may result in legal liability. There may be obligations under local privacy laws regarding the protection of individuals concerning personal data and on the free movement of such data, and possibly other laws including criminal laws, regulating camera surveillance both in the workplace and elsewhere.

By using the TV camera, users agree that it will not be used (i) in locations where cameras are generally prohibited (such as bathrooms, locker rooms or changing rooms), (ii) in any manner that will result in an invasion of a person's privacy or (iii) in violation of any applicable laws, regulations or statutes.

If you are using a camera, first check the back for a sticker.

Remove the sticker cover before adjusting the TV camera angle.

When you are no longer using the camera, rotate the lens downward and secure it in place. This prevents any inadvertent or unintentional camera operation,

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. Users may experience physical fatigue when using Motion Control for extended periods.

Voice Recognition

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.

text_image Voice Recognition Voice Recognition On Languages UK English Use TV Voice Voice Recognition Tutorial

The displayed image may differ depending on the model.

This function is available only with PDP 5500 series and LED 6400 series or higher.

Voice Control is not available in all languages and dialects. Performance may vary depending on the language spoken and surrounding environment, including ambient noise. Voice Control does not include Voice Interaction (Natural Language) feature.

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 Languages. The TV's clock has to be set before you use Voice Recognition. Set the Clock (System > Time > Clock).

To use the Voice Recognition, 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 recognised if you speak too softly or loudly. The optimal volume is approximately 60dB (ex: 60 dB: general conversation, 70 dB: telephone ring).

Operating Environment

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).

Motion Control Tutorial

The displayed image may differ depending on the model.

Use Motion Control to change the channel, adjust the volume, move the pointer, and control other TV functions.

Some applications may not support Motion Control.

The motion control features require a separately-sold camera installed on the TV. Make sure that the TV is connected to the Internet when installing the camera so that it can download the software required for motion control.

When the Voice Recognition is running, the Motion Control is not available.

When connecting the TV camera to 2013 Samsung TV models, make sure to connect it to the specified USB port of the TV. Other USB ports are not supported for this purpose.

Operating Environment

Make sure that the TV camera is extended before using motion controls.

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.

Motion Control relies on the TV camera and therefore will not function if the camera is pointed up or down. Adjust the camera angle using the wheel on the back of the camera. Do not point the camera directly at the sun or any other light source or obstruct its view.

In order for the camera to recognise movement, the user has to stand out from the background.

The appropriate ambient brightness is between 50 to 500 lux. (ex: 100 Lux: bathroom, 400 Lux: living room)

Avoid direct sunlight when using Motion Control.

Run Motion Control Environment Test to assess the camera's recognition range before using Motion Control.

Motion Control Environment Test

Screen Menu > Smart Features > Motion Control > Motion Control Environment Test

Run this test before using Motion Control to ensure proper functionality.

  1. Run Motion Control Environment Test and select Start within 1.5m and 4m of the TV. If light reflects on the TV screen, user can be difficult to use Motion Control.
  2. Adjust the camera angle so that you appear inside the square displayed on the screen. Once you have finished adjusting the camera angle, wave one hand slowly from left to right. Spread your hand out with the palm facing the TV. An arrow cursor appears on the screen when the TV recognises the action. If recognition fails, try again.

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.

When connecting the TV camera to 2013 Samsung TV models, make sure to connect it to the specified USB port of the TV. Other USB ports are not supported for this purpose.

Operating Environment

The user 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.

The appropriate ambient brightness is 50 to 500 lux. (100 Lux: Bathroom, 400 Lux: Living Room)

Face Recognition can recognize up to 5 different users at a time.

The TV may have difficulty recognising twins and people with similar faces as two different individuals. 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 recognising 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.
  • Your facial expression when logging into your Samsung account must be the same as the facial expression during the registration process.

Face Registration

A Smart Hub login is required to register a face. Log into the Smart Hub. Create a new account if you do not already have one. Refer to the "Creating a Samsung Account" section for details.

  1. Open the (Smart Features > Samsung Account > Edit profile) menu, and select Register face.
  2. Read the instruction, select OK, and then enter the password for the Samsung account.
  3. Select Take picture, and the user's face appears on the screen. Keep the face to be completely in the red dotted frame. The face is successfully registered when the frame turns green.

The user's entire face must be visible to the camera. Avoid shadows over your face. Shadows prevent the camera from recognising 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.
If it fails, select Retry. It is better to select the checkbox beside I want to enter password as well for increased security for higher security. With the checkbox selected, the user must enter the password when logging in using face recognition.

  1. Select Save to finish.

Face Recognition Login

Select Face recognition, and then select Start from the login window. The TV automatically recognises a user's face. If recognition fails, try again. If the password entry option has been enabled under Edit profile, you need to enter your password as well in order to log into the Smart Hub.

The user's entire face must be visible to the camera. Avoid shadows over your face. Shadows prevent the camera from recognising 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.
Once recognition succeeds, the TV logs into the Smart Hub automatically. If the TV recognises two or more registered faces, a list of corresponding accounts appears. Select the appropriate account. Recognition of an unregistered face prompts a warning.

Schedule Recording is available for digital channels only. The 📁 icon appears next to channels and programmes that have been configured for a Schedule Recording.

You can view recordings by selecting Recorded TV of the On TV or Photos, Videos & Music.

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 functions are in progress, only the recording will stop.
    • 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 the On TV or Photos, Videos & Music > Recorded TV. If recording is selected from Guide or the Programme 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.

Using Networked External Storage Devices

Your TV can directly display media files from web storage devices and computers and DLNA-enabled devices connected to the TV over a network. To display the media files on an external storage device, the device must support DLNA and be connected to the same network as the TV.

For example, you can display the media files on your Smartphone or web storage in the following ways:

  • Send a media playback request to the TV from a Smartphone or computer.
  • Establish a link between the TV and a computer/Smartphone/web storage and play the media files.
  • Use a Smartphone to send a request to the TV to play the media files stored on a computer or use a computer to request playing the media files stored on a Smartphone.
  • Log into your Samsung account and play the media files stored on your web storage.

Certain media files stored on a networked external storage device may not play on the TV, depending on their resolution and format. In addition, certain functions may not be available.

Certain files may not play smoothly. If this is the case, use a USB storage device.

Move to Photos, Videos & Music at the top of the Smart Hub screen. Select the media type and then the device where the media file is located. The folder and file list of the selected external storage device are shown.

Samsung Link makes it easy to retrieve and enjoy media files from computers and DLNA-enabled devices. However, computers need to be installed with Samsung Link PC and mobile devices need to support Samsung Link.

3D Precautions

Viewing guidelines

- In 3D view mode, the screen may flicker under fluorescent lighting (50Hz \~ 60Hz) or three-wave lighting.

- When switching the picture mode from 3D view, the 3D view mode turns off, and the 3D glasses fail to operate, resulting in the display not operating properly.

Then, the 3D glasses turn off.

- If you lie on your side while watching TV with the 3D glasses, the picture may look darker or may not be visible.

- If the 3D glasses are defective or damaged, they cannot be repaired and should be exchanged for a new pair.

- The actual 3D effect may be experienced differently depending on the viewer. The 3D effect may not be experienced by a person who has a great difference of vision in the left and right eyes.

- In 3D view mode, it is advisable to watch TV within the recommended distance.

The 3D function of the glasses may not work properly if you are out of the recommended distance for about 3 seconds.

If you stay out of the recommended range, the 3D glasses lose the wireless communications with the TV, and then the display turns off in few seconds before the glasses turn off.

- The 3D glasses may not work properly if there are any nearby active 3D devices or electronic or wireless communication devices (for example, a device that uses the 2.4GHz or 5GHz frequency range such as a microwave or AP). In this case, move the devices away from the 3D glasses.

- The 3D glasses may not work properly near metal objects or in an electromagnetic field. In this case, move the metal objects or the electromagnetic device away from the 3D glasses.

- The vividness of the image may be deteriorated if you watch TV in a location that is exposed to direct sunlight or illumination.

- The temples of the 3D glasses are unfolded. Do not attempt to fold the temples with excessive force. This may damage the 3D glasses.

- If you lie on your side while watching TV with the 3D glasses, the picture may look darker or may not be visible.

- If watching 3D content for an extended time without averting your eyes elsewhere, the 3D glasses may turn off automatically. (for SSG-3570 models only)

- Take off the 3D glasses and put them on again if it does not work in 3D view mode in the first place. (for SSG-3570 models only)
