Installing the Latest Version
■ By USB: Insert a USB
drive containing the
firmware upgrade file,
downloaded from "www.
samsung.com," into the
TV. Please be careful
not to disconnect the
power or remove the
USB drive until upgrades
are complete. The TV
will be turned off and
on automatically after
completing the firmware upgrade. When software is
upgraded, video and audio settings you have made will
return to their default settings. We advise you to write
down your settings so that you can easily reset them
after the upgrade.
■ By Channel: Upgrade the software using the
broadcasting signal.
✎
If the function is selected during the software
transmission period, software will be automatically
searched and downloaded.
✎
The time required to download the software is
determined by the signal status.
■ Standby Mode Upgrade: A manual upgrade will be
automatically performed at selected time. Since the
power of the unit is turned on internally, the screen
may be turned on slightly for the PDP product. This
phenomenon may continue for more than 1 hour until
the software upgrade is complete.
■ Alternative Software (backup): If there is an issue with
the new firmware and it is affecting operation, you can
change the software to the previous version.
✎
If the software was changed, existing software is
displayed.
