How to use universal remote for your connected devices?

Last Update date : 2024-04-27

You may have had the experience of switching different remotes when using various devices connected to your TV or Projector. Using multiple remotes for all your external devices can get confusing. Through the universal remote, you only need one remote control to handle all of them.  Now, you can put an end to trying to find the right remote every time to quickly access all your connected external devices and content.

Set up universal remote

Control the projector and connected external devices with a Samsung remote control. 

Step 1. Press the Home button on your remote to access the Home Screen. Using the directional pad on the remote, navigate to Connected devices. then navigate to and press on Universal Remote

Step 2. Select Universal Remote on the Source screen. Next, select Start and make sure the device you want to connect is turned on. When your desired device displays, select it.

Step 3. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup and register the device. The instructions may vary, depending on the device type selected.
