Do not insert any other card except the TX card dedicated to the product.   If a different TX card is used, the product may 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 and wireless receiving module setting is complete, 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 .

``
`
`
`
`
`
 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 from the main unit to the wireless receiving module is about 33 feet 
(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-Z310/HT-TZ312) is compatible with the wireless receiver module SWA-3000.

HDmi auto Detection function
The player's video output will automatically change to HDMI mode when connecting an HDMI cable 
while power is on. For possible HDMI resolutions, see page 27.
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 Theater transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack.
HD mi 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 HD mi?
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 Theater) 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.
