Features of Samsung TVs
For example, TVs of 6 series with an LED matrix are mainly equipped with the Smart TV function. Potential buyers who have not previously used smart technology do not want to configure such devices on their own, so they pay fabulous money for the services of specialists. This is not the wisest decision, since the operating system is in Russian, therefore, in order to set up the technique, you just need to follow the step-by-step tips that pop up on the screen.
What if you lost your instructions? Manufacturers are well aware that only a small part of consumers continue to use traditional paper instructions, so they try to simplify the interface as much as possible and make it intuitive.
You will not find any overly complex or confusing commands in the menu. You just need to connect the TV to the network and turn it on using the remote control. You can tune free TV channels by connecting to the most common antenna.
Of course, devices released by Samsung have their own chips that distinguish them from other brands, but believe me, they are more related to additional functionality, so they will not be a particular problem.
Manual mode
To re-tune TV channels on an already old Samsung TV model manually, without calling the wizard, you need to take into account several extremely important nuances at once:
- Old models differ from new ones in a complex and incomprehensible interface, because of this problems arise;
- Outdated TVs are not equipped with automatic tuning;
- Old Samsung TVs are not capable of broadcasting high definition images.
Manual tuning involves changing many important basic parameters. Sometimes this scares off users, although in fact there is nothing difficult about it, you just need to adjust the frequency correctly, you definitely cannot break the TV.
How do I tune my TV manually? Follow the simple step-by-step instructions:
- Open the main menu, and then go to the Antenna section.
- Choosing Manual Tuning Digital TV Channel Tuning.
- Click on Create, as a result of which a window will open with additional indicators: purity, module, transfer.
- First you need to set the following parameters 170,000 kHz, 128 QAM and 6900 KS / s.
- The TV will tune in for a certain time, searching for channels. The images will change, and TV footage will start to appear.
- After finishing, you need to click on the Save button, after which a window will appear for adjusting the frequency, module and transmission, leave the last parameters unchanged, but indicate a new frequency of 178000 kHz, start the search again.
By the same principle, you can continue to search for TV channels, constantly adding 8000 kHz to the frequency. Experiments of this kind can be carried out up to an indicator of 226,000.
In this way, the sound and picture quality can also be significantly improved by making them very clear. Go to the menu and select the Image section, and then arbitrarily adjust the clarity, brightness, contrast and other parameters.
You can also sort the channels manually. To do this, open the main menu, and then go to the Broadcast section. Check the boxes next to the desired programs. Here you can add your favorite channels to favorites or save the current arrangement.
Channel setup
Of course, right after connecting the TV, users have the question of how to properly set up the reception of TV channels? The predominantly Russian-language interface is selected by default, so you just have to perform simple actions in accordance with this step-by-step algorithm:
- Open the main menu by pressing the corresponding button on the remote control.
- Go to the basic settings section.
- Click on the section Find and configure TV channels.
- Choose one of two ways to search for channels manual or automatic.
- Wait for the TV to find channels, then save the programs to your Samsung TV.
If the user nevertheless begins to set up television broadcasting in automatic mode, then, in fact, the whole process will take several minutes. The device will find available channels, and then assign them numerical values, by the way, you can change them later.
As soon as you finish setting up your Samsung TV, the first channel in the list will automatically turn on. For a complete list of broadcasts, use the corresponding buttons on the remote control.
Many do not know how to connect and configure an external receiver, especially if it is a satellite box. In fact, it is also not difficult to do this, since mainly the interface of modern receivers is also translated into Russian and is as simple and understandable as possible.
Now let’s talk about the features of automatic and manual channel search that are included in free digital TV multiplexes.
Locking individual channels
There are many reasons why the TV does not show certain channels, in some cases the user has blocked them. What is the purpose of this? Everything is very simple and straightforward, setting a password for TV channels allows you to block it from children. To tune the channels by setting some password, follow the instructions:
- Opening the main menu.
- Select the section Broadcast.
- Click on the command Lock.
- We activate it by selecting Enable.
- Select the channels that you want to block, just put a tick next to them.
By default, the system locks them with the default password 0000. However, before saving the changes made, the TV will offer to set its own password.
If at a certain moment the need for blocking disappears, then it is very easy to cancel it, for this you need to go to the Broadcast section again, select Block, and then simply disable this function by entering the set password.
Auto mode
It is the auto-tuning function that is why many experts define Samsung TV equipment as the smartest of all on the market. Each user will be able to automatically set up TV programs, arrange them alphabetically.
First you need to choose a signal source: antenna, cable, satellite. Some Smart TV models are offered to the user by the most popular providers: NTV, Telekarta, Rostelecom, Tricolor. If you want to use the services of the listed operators, then the channels will be found automatically and arranged according to the traditional order.
After the end of auto-tuning, select the programs of a certain provider. They will be arranged in accordance with the settings of the TV broadcast operator. To change the position of channels, use the Move function:
- Press the Main Menu button on the remote control.
- Then select the Broadcast command, it is presented as a white satellite dish icon.
- Scroll down until we come across the command Change the channel number, activate it by selecting Enable.
- To go to the next step, return to the Home tab, and then open the Broadcasts section again, press the right and select the Change command.

Automatic search can be started without a remote control. If you are using an LCD Smart TV, then you can enable auto-tuning using a keyboard, mouse, or a regular smartphone. Regular TVs can be configured via the navigation buttons located on the front of the device.
How to set up your Samsung TV yourself

In fact, setting up Samsung TVs is far from the most difficult process, the main thing is to follow the instructions, and then you can achieve the desired result, while spending a minimum of free time. Of course, at first it is advisable to study the tips for setting up the TV, this is what will be discussed now.
Required TV receiver connectors
HDMI and USB are the most important connectors. Their number depends on individual user requests. It is necessary to pay attention to the versions of the connectors presented and take into account all electronic devices that are planned to be connected to the TV. Sometimes a slot for connecting a memory card (Compact Flash, Memory Stick or MMC) or a digital TV module may come in handy.
Samsung TV Screen Format
A widescreen television display represents a ratio of its width to height as 16: 9. Modern films and television broadcasting standards are designed for this ratio. Using a widescreen TV avoids black horizontal bars on the screen when watching them.
Samsung TVs design
Appearance is an important aspect when choosing a TV. Along with flat screens, models with curved edges are popular with their pros and cons.
Benefits of a curved screen:
- Uniformly crisp image provided by the same distance from the eyes to the center and edges;
- Immersion in the plot thanks to the cinema effect;
- Increased viewing angles;
- Image depth: pictures look three-dimensional;
- High contrast and color rendering;
- Stylish appearance.
- Enhanced reflection of light by curved parts;
- Possible slight distortion of the geometry of the images;
- Extremely large curved screens;
- The dependence of the display quality on the position of the viewer;
- Inconvenience of mounting on the wall;
- High price due to complex production technology.
The design of Samsung TVs is improving every year. In the models, unnecessary details are removed. Cases are thinner, screens are trimmed with or without stylish frames, and the back has a sleek, seamless finish.
Deciphering the marking of Samsung television models source of information from the manufacturer
Useful information about the TV can be obtained from the model designation, which is a list of specific characters: letters and numbers.
The first letter indicates the type of screen:
- U LCD TV with LED backlight;
- K display with matrix OLED.
Further continental affiliation of the television receiver:
- E Europe;
- N Korea, USA;
- S Iran;
- A Africa, Asia or Australia.
The next 2 digits of the marking are the diagonal of the TV screen (measured in inches). Following them is the letter designation of the model year:
- K 2020;
- J 2015;
- H 2014.
In the absence of additional letters, it is customary to consider an LED HDTV TV, otherwise:
- S model SUHD;
- U 4K UHD screen availability.
The next digit from 4 to 9 describes the series of the device. The higher it is, the more modern the TV is.
Next are three modification digits. After them, information about the tuner is presented, and the last 3 characters (X are two letters) mark the country of sale of the TV receiver:
- RU Russian Federation;
- UA Ukraine;
- CS Kazakhstan;
- BT Baltic countries.
Resolution of Samsung TV receivers
The quality of the displayed television picture is in direct proportion to the number of pixels of the screen resolution. This parameter is especially important for models with a large diagonal. There are several popular TV display resolutions:
- 1280×720p HD resolution;
- 1920 x 1080 resolution of Full HD quality for viewing high definition movies;
- 3840×2160 ultra high quality Ultra HD (4K) resolution supported by modern multimedia devices.
To get a good picture, it is recommended to select the TV screen resolution according to the type of input signal. Therefore, when buying a TV, you need to consider what you plan to use for watching: cable TV, DVD format, Blu-Ray discs, etc.
Samsung TV sizes
The diagonal size in inches reflects the size of the TV. The opinion that the largest diagonal is the best is true, but not always. The preferred screen size depends on the area of the room in which you plan to use the TV. When choosing a device as a home theater in a spacious hall, it is logical to consider television receivers with the largest possible diagonal. For a miniature kitchen, a small screen is preferable.
It is believed that for comfortable viewing, the distance from the TV to the viewer should be at least three times the diagonal. This expression is true for telescopic options. In modern flat-panel TV models, it is important to consider the resolution and choose the optimal distance at which the pixel structure is not visible.
Samsung TV sets
Samsung Electronics is engaged in the production of various equipment, both electronic and household. Today the company has reached such a level of development that many buyers in different countries trust Samsung’s quality. And in television technology, the company occupies one of the leading positions in terms of production of televisions and technological developments.

Among the models of Samsung LED TVs there are devices with a resolution of Full HD (1920×1080) and new Ultra HD (3840×2160) and 8K (7680×4320). In 2015, the development of lcd matrix backlighting led to the emergence of “quantum dot” technology. The flagships of the 2020 lineup use quantum dot backlighting and are called QLED.
