the blue Pb jack on the TV, the red Pr jack on the source to the red Pr jack on the TV.

Unwanted Powering off
If your Samsung TV appears to turn off by itself, there may be an issue with either your
Timer settings or your Eco friendly No Signal Power Off feature.
First make sure you Sleep Timer is not accidentally set. The sleep timer allows you the
comfort of falling asleep with the TV still on but, turns it off after a certain period of time
so as not to waste energy.

Trouble Powering On
Before Turn on check red light on the right or left bottom of your TV. Press power
on button on TV or remote and it will blink about 5 times before turning on.
If you find that you are having trouble powering on your Samsung television, there are a
number of things to check before making a call to the service department.
y
If you happen to be using the TV as a monitor and the stand-by light only blinks for a few
seconds when you press the power button, your PC is in sleep mode. To take your PC out of
sleep mode, press a key on your keyboard or move the mouse. Then try turning your TV on.
If you’re sure your power cord, remote control, and PC are functioning properly, you may
be having a cable issue. If you have a cable or satellite box, your TV may appear to be off
because the cable or satellite box is not outputting a signal. To test the signal output of your
cable or satellite box, press the guide or info button on the cable or satellite box remote
control. If the screen displays the guide or info data, the problem is caused by the box.
