Consistently carrying out the operations described in the following, it is not difficult to perform the procedure for setting up such a multimedia universal device.

What is Smart TV?

Before talking about how to set up Smart TV on Samsung, we'll figure out what it is and why this option in such devices is so much in demand today. Older television solutions could only output an image that was received either from the antenna, or from a video player, or from any other similar device. But they could not connect to the Internet and download the site or play a movie from the global web without special tools. Therefore, a new generation of television receivers with the function "Smart TV" appeared, which were deprived of the previously mentioned shortcoming. In essence, such solutions are universal multimedia centers and are able not only to surf the web or play a movie, but also to perform the functions of a monitor. The presence of an integrated operating system turns such TV-receivers into full-fledged computers with a reduced level of functionality. Continuous improvement of the software will eventually lead to the fact that the line between personal computers and such multimedia centers will be erased.

OS

Before you configure "Smart TV" on the "Samsung", you need to understand the system software. To date, in TVs with this option, you can find such operating systems:

• Tizen - proprietary development company "Samsung". Has one of the best levels of functionality at the moment and an impressive list of supported software.

• WebOS is the development of LG. In essence, this is a complete analog of the system software from Samsung, which, both in functionality and in the list of applied software, is not inferior to its direct competitor.

• Also on the devices of this series can be found OS "Android." Most often it prefers the brands "Sony" and "Philips". This is a stripped-down version of the operating system for mobile devices. The level of functionality is not inferior to the previous two operating systems.

Supply

In the list of deliveries of its most recent television devices of this class, the South Korean company "Samsung" included the following:

• TV.

• Set of supports with fixing bolts.

• Control panel with a full set of batteries.

• A coupon with a full list of warranties.

• Quick installation instructions.

• Power cable.

In paper form, the user's guide is not included in the package because it is included in the TV menu as a separate item. Therefore, before setting up "Smart TV" on the Samsung TV, it is strongly recommended that you enable it and study in detail the electronic version of the supplied documentation.

Wired connection

So, how to set up "Smart TV" on the Samsung TV? The first step is the implementation of switching using wires. At this stage it is necessary to perform such manipulations:
