Setting Up C Model Hotel TVs
Scott Whitman
Manager—Product Support
Whenever the ―SI Vendor‖ parameter in the
interactive menu is changed in a C Model
Hotel TV, the TV needs a hard reboot to
load the new information correctly. To do
this properly, follow these steps:
1. After you have finished changing the
settings in the interactive menu, power
down the TV using the remote control.
2. After the TV turns off, unplug the TV
from the AC receptacle.
3. Leave the set unplugged until the red
LED on the front bezel is completely
extinguished. This should take about
10 to 20 seconds.
4. Plug the TV back in, turn it on, and
then test for proper operation using the
vendor’s remote control.
Remapping Channels
To remap channels using Channel Editor
on the C model Hotel TVs, follow these
steps:
1. Turn the ―Dynamic SI‖ feature ―OFF‖.
―Dynamic SI‖ monitors for the addition
of sub channels and automatically
adds them to the list. To remap, this
feature must be off.
2. In the ―Channel Editor‖ menu, select
the channel or source that you want
changed, and then press the ―Tools‖
button on the Samsung remote con-
trol.
3. Select ―Edit Channel Number‖ and
then scroll through the available chan-
nels to the one desired and press
―Enter‖.
Trick: To change to the root channel (i.e.
from 5-1 to 5), you must select another
channel number and save, and then re-
peat and select the final channel number.
