Switching Sound mode without a remote/finding model number

[trucase]

Just bought a soundbar used without a remote. I've got it linked to my tv remote so I can turn it up and down but can't change the sound mode (for example: To game/movie/tv mode, etc.). Any ideas? 

Secondly, anyone know how to find out the model number other than the sticker on the back? 

Thank you!

Hi @trucase 

Did you manage to figure this out? The model code should be on the label at the back of the Soundbar.

Hey Chris. Thanks for checking in. The guy I bought it from claims his daughter switched stickers. Sticker says N850 but he swears up and down that it’s the 80r. Really hard to tell by looking at it since it’s the same soundbar. 

it does have the 80R firmware update 1010.5, has game mode pro, and eARC. So perhaps he’s right unless the N850 was able to get this update too. Any thoughts? 

thanks,
