Why is Anynet+ not working on my Samsung Plasma TV?
- S
  Scott BrownJul 26, 2025
  If Anynet+ is not working on your Samsung Plasma TV, first ensure that the connected device is Anynet+ compatible, as the system only supports these devices. Ensure that only one receiver is connected. Check the power cord and the Video/Audio/HDMI cable connections of the Anynet+ device. Verify that Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) is enabled in the Anynet+ setup menu and that the TV remote is in TV mode and is Anynet+ compatible. Note that Anynet+ may not function during channel searches or initial setup. If you connect or disconnect the HDMI cable, rescan for devices or power cycle the TV. Finally, confirm that the Anynet+ function of the external device is enabled.

  If your connected device isn't showing up on your Samsung Plasma TV, verify that it supports Anynet+ functions. Also, check that the HDMI cable is properly connected and that Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) is enabled in the Anynet+ setup menu. Try rescanning for Anynet+ devices. Keep in mind that Anynet+ only works with HDMI connections, and some HDMI cables may not support Anynet+. If there was a power interruption or the HDMI cable was disconnected, repeat the device scan.
