| Menus & Options pg.2 Channel Menu The channel menu consists of exactly what you would expect it to: Input format, channel programming and other options pertaining to the signal going through the Antenna connector on the back of the TV. Setup Menu There is also a general Setup menu containing all of the preferences which don’t directly impact your viewing experience. This includes Language, Network connections, V-Chip settings for all you concerned parents, closed captioning for the hearing impaired and even a wireless setup option. This is also where you can go to update the firmware of the TV under “Software Upgrade”. While this glosses over the information from this section, there is one area I wanted to show you a bit more of since it will cut down some annoyances for you right off the bat. Believe it or not, the External Settings is one of the first things many of you will be begging for since it turns off the somewhat annoying chime which sounds whenever you turn the TV on. It also controls the slightly less annoying glowing red light at the bottom of the front panel. If you happen to have the optional Samsung mechanical wall mount, this is where you can control its positioning from as well. Input & Application Menus The Input menu is self-evident in the fact that it lists all of the external sources currently hooked up to the LN52A850 and also allows you to modify the name of each source. Meanwhile, the final item we have here is the Application menu that holds access to the USB port, Anynet+ and other information. | ||
