Introduction

This TV has functionality that lets it interact with a set-back box (SBB/STB) and with other TVs in a computer controlled system for hotels and other hospitality businesses.

Interactive : When the TV is powered-up initially, it sends a command to identify the connected SBB/STB. If it identifies the SBB/STB, the TV switches to ONLINE mode which gives full control of the TV to the SBB/STB.

When the TV is in ONLINE mode, it stops accepting IR (Samsung remote) commands and acts according to the interface protocol.

Stand-Alone: If you are not using an SBB/STB and the TV cannot or does not identify an SBB/STB, you should switch the TV to STAND-ALONE mode with restricted operation.

Operational Modes

When this TV is in Hotel mode and is operated with an SBB/STB, it is in one of two states: ONLINE or STAND-ALONE

•In the STAND-ALONE state, the TV will act as a Hotel TV, but without active communication. This is to prevent guests from trying to cheat the system by disconnecting the SBB/STB.

Still image warning

Avoid displaying still images (such as jpeg picture files) or still image elements (such as TV channel logos, panorama or 4:3 format images, stock or news bars or crawls) on the screen. Displaying still pictures continually can cause uneven screen wear, which will affect image quality. To reduce the chance that this effect will occur, please follow the recommendations below:

•Avoid displaying the same TV channel for long periods.

•Always try to display a full screen image.

•Reduce brightness and contrast to help to prevent the occurrence of after-images.

•Use all TV features designed to reduce image retention and screen burn-in. Refer to the proper user manual section for details.
