LED Edge-Lighting:
Samsung's LED Edge-Lighting technology allows for a high dynamic contrast ratio and ultra-sharp blacks by allowing
multiple LEDs to turn on an off automatically based on the image. LED
Edge-Lighting also provides more natural color representation and deep reds and
greens, because Samsung uses white LEDs that produce 105% of the broadcast color
gamut. The television's white LEDs are arranged along the left and right edges
of the screen and a proprietary light guide is used to focus its luminance
inwards towards the middle of the screen for a more uniform brightness. Overall,
this LED Backlight system produces contrast with stronger blacks and whites, and
greater subtlety of every gradation in between.
Ultra Clear Panel:
With Samsung's Ultra Clear Panel, you can still get an amazing picture even with
reflective light. Ultra Clear Panel absorbs most ambient light and virtually
eliminates reflections so there are hardly any distractions. Ultra Clear Panel
also helps make colors more vibrant with deeper blacks and enhanced contrast for
crisper images and excellent shadow detail.
Clear Motion Rate 240: Clear Motion Rate (CMR) is Samsung's
more comprehensive and accurate measure for how well the LED-LCD TV can display
fast-moving images. Previously, motion clarity was expressed simply by the
refresh rate, measured in Hz. CMR, however, takes into account all three factors
that contribute to motion clarity: panel refresh rate, image processor speed and
backlight technology. CMR is measured by determining the thinnest line a TV can
display in a moving image. The thinner the line, the higher the CMR rating, and
the clearer the picture you'll enjoy on the screen.
- Panel Refresh Rate (Hz): Samsung's screen refresh rate
(120Hz) significantly improves motion detail and resolution by sampling the
image more frequently, leading to smoother, more fluid movement.
- Image Processor (Auto Motion Plus): Samsung's
proprietary Auto Motion Plus image processing technology is faster and more
responsive than conventional image processors, as it interpolates
intermediate frames to smooth out the image.
- LED Backlight Technology: Samsung's Edge-Lighting
Backlight technology regulates output precisely in synchronization with the
screen refresh to lessen the time it is lit, reducing ghosting and motion
blur.
Auto Motion Plus 120Hz: Auto
Motion Plus 120Hz removes blur and
judder from scenes with large
amounts of rapid movement to provide
a clearer picture. Auto Motion Plus
120Hz reduces blur so
that action movies, sports and video
games have enhanced clarity.
Advanced panels and unique backlight
technology combine with proprietary
algorithms to reduce the response
time and yield a more accurate image
reproduction with faster onscreen
motion. Auto Motion Plus 120Hz can
be set to Clear, Standard, Smooth,
Custom, Demo, or Off.
LED Motion Plus: LED Motion Plus removes drag from fast scenes with a lot of movement to provide a clear
picture.
Wide Color Enhancer Plus: Wide Color Enhancer Plus allows
you to see picture color the way the director originally intended. Witness the
entire RGB spectrum brought to life on your screen to bring you exceptionally
vibrant, yet natural-looking images faithful to the director's original intent.
HDTV Tuner: The TV has built-in over-the-air HDTV (ATSC) and

a device with a DVI output (a DVI-to-HDMI adapter cable is necessary). If a
DVI-equipped device is used, a separate audio cable will also be needed from
the device to the "PC/DVI Audio In" 3.5mm stereo audio jack. In addition,
any HDMI input can be used to connect a PC to this TV.
- Component Video: The Samsung LED TV features a 3.5mm

Audio Features
ARC (Audio Return Channel): The Audio Return Channel in HDMI
1.4 enables a TV, via a single HDMI cable, to send audio data "upstream" to an
A/V receiver; increasing user flexibility and eliminating the need for any
separate S/PDIF audio connection. This feature allows audio to be sent from the
television to your A/V receiver through the same HDMI cable already being used
to send audio/video to the television. This eliminates the need for extra cables
connected to the TV. ARC allows audio from the TV tuner, Network connection,
inserted USB device, HDMI inputs, or any analog connected device to be heard
through your ARC compatible AV receiver via the television's HDMI ARC input. The
audio from the TV's tuner, network connection can pass as Dolby Digital or 2ch
PCM. HDMI, USB, and analog connected devices will be output as 2ch PCM only.
Note: Both the television and the receiver must support
ARC for this function to work properly. When connecting an A/V receiver that
is compatible with Audio Return Channel (ARC), connect it to the TV's HDMI 2
input. If connecting a system that is incompatible Audio Return Channel
(ARC), an additional audio connection via Digital Audio Out (Optical) is
necessary.
Auto Volume: Auto Volume automatically adjusts the volume of
the desired channel, lowering the sound output when the modulation signal is
high or raising the sound output when the modulation signal is low. This reduces
the difference in volume when changing channels. The Auto Volume feature can be
set to Normal, Night or Off.
Sound Modes: You can choose from the following Preset
Sound Modes:
- Standard: Select the normal sound mode.
- Music: Emphasizes music over voices.
- Movie: Provides the best sound for movies.
- Clear Voice: Emphasizes voices over other sounds.
- Amplify: Amplify mode is for people who have difficulty
hearing.
Equalizer: You can manually adjusts the TV's built-in 5-band EQ
(100 Hz, 300 Hz, 1 kHz, 3
kHz, and 10 kHz) for a more customized sound.
SRS TruSurround HD: SRS TruSurround HD is a patented SRS
technology that solves the problem of playing 5.1 multichannel content over two
speakers. TruSurround delivers a compelling, virtual surround sound experience
through any two-speaker playback system, including the internal television
speakers. It is fully compatible with all multichannel formats.
SRS TruDialog: This function allows you to increase the
intensity of a voice over background music or sound effects so that dialogue can
be heard more clearly.
Audio Delay: The Audio Delay function corrects audio/video
mismatch, when watching TV or video, and listening to a digital audio output
using an external device such as an AV receiver. You can adjust the audio delay
from 0ms to 250 ms.
Audio Outputs: The Samsung LED-LCD television provides an
analog and digital audio output.
- Digital Audio: The optical digital output terminal will
output Dolby Digital (when available) or 2 channel PCM. The digital optical
output terminal only sends an audio signal in Dolby Digital when receiving
Dolby Digital surround sound from a digital broadcast channel through the
tuner on the LED-LCD TV, or Dolby Digital surround sound from a Samsung
Smart TV app, via the television's network connection. The optical digital
audio output will only output in 2ch stereo from sources connected to the TV
via HDMI, RCA, or USB.
- Analog Audio: The television features a 3.5mm (minijack)
audio output for connecting the television to an analog 2-channel receiver.
You will need a minijack-to-RCA adapter (119MCON2M,
sold separately) to make a stereo RCA connection between the television and
your AV receiver. The TV's analog audio output terminals will output 2ch
audio from any of the television's source inputs.
PC/USB/Internet Functions
PC-Capable: This unit has a 15-pin D-Sub (RGB) input that
allows you to use it as a high-resolution computer monitor. This input consists of a stereo mini-jack and an
analog RGB (D-Sub 15-pin) jack. This jack allows you to connect a personal
computer with a D-Sub 15-pin output. When using the RGB (D-Sub 15-pin) jack, you
must use the PC Audio 3.5mm input for your audio connection. The HDMI 1 input can
also be connected to a computer. The TV can be set to automatically adjust to the
video signals received, or you can use the setup menu to adjust the screen
quality and position.
Note: The Samsung LED-LCD TV provides an optimal PC
resolution of 1920 x 1080p (60Hz).

through the television using either connection. You can attach the TV to your
network via a hardwired Ethernet (RJ-45) connection or a wireless connection
using the optional Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter (305Link,
sold separately). You can setup a wired network connection automatically or
manually. You san setup the wireless network connection using these four methods
- PBC (WPS), Auto Network Search, Ad-Hoc, or Manually.
Note: Samsung's Wireless LAN adapter (sold
separately) supports IEEE 802.11A/B/G/N and WEP/TKIP/TKIP-AES (except
for 802.11N). When playing video over a IEEE 802.1B/G connection, the
video may not pay smoothly.
