Place the wireless receiver module at the rear of the listening 
position. If the wireless receiver module is too close to the main unit, 
some sound interruption may be heard due to interference.
If you use a device such as a microwave oven, wireless LAN Card, 
Bluetooth equipment, or any other device that uses the same frequency 
(5.8GHz) near the system, some sound interruption may be heard due to 
interference.
The transmission distance of a radio wave is about 10m, but may 
vary depending on your operating environment. If a steel-concrete 
wall or metallic wall is between the main unit and the wireless 
receiver module, the system may not operate at all, because the 
radio wave cannot penetrate metal.
This product (HT-X715/HT-TX715) is compatible with the wireless receiver module SWA-3000.
Do not insert any other card except the TX card dedicated to the product. The product might be damaged or 
the card may not be removed easily.
Do not insert the TX card upside down or in the reverse direction.
Insert the TX card when the DVD Player is turned off. Inserting the card when it is turned on may cause a 
problem.
If the TX Card is inserted, sound is not output from the Rear Speaker connectors on the main unit.
The wireless receiving antenna is built into the wireless receiver module. Keep the unit away from water and moisture.
For optimal listening performance, make sure that the area around the wireless receiver module location is clear of any obstructions.
If no sound is heard from the wireless rear speakers, switch the mode to DVD 5.1 channel or Dolby ProLogic II.
In 2-CH mode, no sound will be heard from the wireless rear speakers.

HDMI Auto Detection Function
The player's video output will automatically change to HDMI mode when connecting an HDMI cable 
while power is on.
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is an interface that enables the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single 
connector. 
Using HDMI, the DVD Home Cinema transmits a digital video and audio signals and displays a vivid 
picture.
HDMI connection description
HDMI connector - Supports video and digital audio data.
- HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.
- 
 If your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), random noise 
appears on the screen.
Why does Samsung use HDMI?
Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data transmitted 
to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the DVD Home Cinema) or an 
analog-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is 
degraded due to noise and signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because it requires no D/A 
conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to your TV.
What is the HDCP?
HDCP (High-band width Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content outputted 
via HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) 
and a display device  
(TV, projector. etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized copies from 
being made.
What is Anynet+?
Anynet+ is a convenient function that offers linked operation of this unit through Samsung TVs with the 
Anynet+ feature.
- If your Samsung TV has an ' logo, then it supports the Anynet+ function.
-  If you turn on the player and insert a disc, the player will start playing the disc, and the TV will turn on 
automatically and switch to HDMI mode.
- 
 
If you turn on the player and press the Play button with a disc already inserted, the TV will 
immediately turn on and switch to HDMI mode.
