Use a Samsung F Series Smart Remote with Sonos

The Samsung F Series TouchPad remote control does not output Infrared (IR) signals which are required to control a Sonos home theater speaker.

The TV comes with an IR emitter that wires into the IR Out port on the back of the TV. This allows the TV to control Sonos and other devices that require IR.

Before you start

  • Connect the IR emitter to the IR Out port on the back of the TV, then place the head of the emitter in front of the Sonos home theater speaker’s IR sensor. The emitter may need to be at least two inches away from the IR sensor.
  • If you are not going to use the Samsung Smart Remote to control the volume of your Sonos home theater speaker and just want to get rid of the message displayed on the TV when controlling the volume, you only need to follow the steps in “Program the remote.”
