This TV is provided with interactive functionality through a set-back box (SBB/STB) connected to the TV, and with other TVs in a computer controlled system for hotels and other hospitality businesses.
When TV is powered-up initially it sends command to identify SBB/STB, if identified TV switches to ONLINE mode and full control is through SBB/STB. In ONLINE TV stops receiving IR(Samsung remote) commands and acts according to interface protocol. Stand-Alone: If SBB/STB is not identified, TV should be switched to STAND-ALONE mode with restricted operation.
When this TV (in Hotel mode) is operated with a SBB/STB, it is in one of two states ONLINE or STAND-ALONE. In the STAND-ALONE state, the TV will act as a Hotel TV, but without active communication. This is to prevent guests from trying to cheat the system by disconnecting the SBB/STB.
To set the details for Stand-alone or interactive mode, refer to page 15(Setting the hotel option data : Stand-alone mode and Interactive mode)
Some operations may be restricted to prevents guests from “cheating” the TV system.
