TV does not react on the remote control for 2k12 models (6x77, 7xx7 and 8xx7 sets).

Hi @ all,

To everyone who bought one of the new 6777 or 6877 models, or the 7xx7 and 8xx7 models: Those TV's come with a new remote control based on RF (radio frequency) communication not on IR (infrared).
For 6000 series, the models using RF4CE are 37PFL6777x/xx, 42PFL6877x/xx and 47PFL6877x/xx.
For 7000 & 8000 series: all models.

Attachment 1200

For the remote control to communicate with the TV, both TV
and remote control should be paired with each other (Remote has to be placed about 10cm in front of the TV). Once
paired, you cannot use the remote control to control another
TV.

When you started the initial TV installation, the TV invited you to press the OK key, and by doing so, the pairing was done. When you switch off the TV, the pairing is stored. You can pair up to 5 remote controls with this TV.

If that message does not appear, just hold the RC again in front of the TV (10cm) and press + hold the red and blue keys at the same time. A message will appear if pairing was successful.

With regards,
Thomas

is RF additional feature or new tv models will not listening on IR at all?

currently i have 42pfl9703h and noticed my setupbox's(Dreambox dm8000) RC is much comfortable than tv's rc
same opinion with naibhor's 40pfl5605h and parent's 37pfl7606h

interested cause thinking about upgrade to 2012 9k model

Hi,

as far as I know, all 2012 TVs will also have a IR receiver...

Toengle@Alex

at least 5-6 times a day it will not react to anything for ~10sec. 8007 with 150.48.13 firmware.

Hi, same problem here. Tv doesn't react on the remote controller. The red light on the TV does not flicker.
I think the remote controller doesn't send the signal. It takes ~10 seconds, then then its works again.
Happens 5 -6 times a day (watching ~3 hours a day).

Hi

I´m having the same problem as Zilver.

I´m experiencing a slow startup procedure, aswell as a slow and lagging menu selection....

this is getting worse by the day. fix it Philips.

Just tried to demonstrate the web browser in my shop and the TV did an excellent impression of a cylon for an hour.

TV does not switch on with remote (55pfl8007 and CI+ card in the TV). I called Philips help desk according to them the bug is known and should be fixed in the next release, well let us hope for the best!!!!

Had the same issue with my set, but re-pairing the remote helped for me (see first post for how to re-pair the remote). At least it now has worked several days in a row.

Look here: http://www.supportforum.philips.com/...ts-(SCC_96329)

Tried re-pairing, tried new batteries and re-pairing. It worked for 14 days, and then it's back.
10 second no contact, no reponse.

i have also this probleme tv remote dont respond and if i use old one from other philips tv it works
i never have buyed a tv with so much bugs in it.

Make somebody upgrade as wrote zumba?
