To program your DirecTV remote to your Samsung TV, follow these steps for using codes. First, identify your DirecTV remote model. Then, find the Samsung TV code for your DirecTV remote. Lastly, enter the Samsung TV code into your DirecTV remote to complete the programming process.
Identify Your DirecTV Remote Model
DirecTV Remote Model Identification
Identifying the DirecTV remote model is crucial for programming it with your Samsung TV. Here’s how you can do it:
- 1. Look for any labels or names printed on the remote control. Some DirecTV models have their model number labeled on them.
- 2. Check the battery compartment of the remote. You may find a sticker with identifying information about the model number and manufacturer there.
- If you cannot locate any information on your remote, refer to your user manual to identify the model number or contact DirecTV customer service for assistance.
It is noteworthy that understanding your DirecTV remote model helps determine whether it supports Samsung TV programming.
Pro Tip: Always make sure to test if your codes are working before assuming that they will program your television correctly. Unlock the TV code like a pro and never suffer through another night of scrolling aimlessly through channels.
Find the Samsung TV Code for Your DirecTV Remote
To program your DirecTV remote to your Samsung TV, you need to find the right code. This process may seem daunting, but it is essential for a seamless viewing experience.
Here is a four-step guide to finding the Samsung TV code for your DirecTV remote:
- On your remote, press and hold the MUTE and SELECT buttons simultaneously for two seconds.
- When the green light at the top of the remote flashes twice, enter one of these codes: 10812, 10060, 10702, 10178, or 11314.
- If the green light flashes twice again after entering the code, press POWER on the remote to confirm that it works with your TV. If not, repeat steps one and two with a different code until you find one that works.
- If you have gone through all of the codes without success, try using automatic programming. Press and hold MUTE and SELECT once more until the green light flashes twice. Then enter 9911 on your remote. Point it towards your TV and press either CHANNEL UP or DOWN repeatedly until your TV turns off. When this happens, save the code by pressing SELECT.
Remember that each Samsung TV has its specific code; therefore, this method may take some time to work. It is important to note that manual programming can be time-consuming; therefore, we recommend using automatic programming instead.
To enter the Samsung TV code into your DirecTV remote, prepare to truly unite your devices in holy matrimony.
