Freesat / Satellite channels on some models

[unplayable]

Model UE55RU7470UXXU OR UE55RU7400UXXU - both these models have freesat.

Please ignore any TV Plus / Aerial or Freeview related talk, i am asking about satellite.  I do not yet have the TV.

As with most freesat boxes, is there a way of using a non-freesat mode on this TV?  i.e. manual scan ?  May also be known as 'satellite mode'

It is discussed here: https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/TV/QE49Q7F-Manual-tuning-adding-channels/td-p/283635

But that is a different model.

Thanks in advance guys!

Hi @unplayable   I imagine the situation will be much the same with UE55RU7470UXXU OR UE55RU7400UXXU, i.e  there will be a non freestat option in the  Auto Tune Menu, however perhaps someone will be able to confirm.    These models certainly are Freestat enabled and have discovered that a customer on an older Ks model  was able to access other satellite channels , found out via an in store demonstration  that  in the tuning menu set-up,  they were  presented with the option of either 'Freeview', 'Cable', 'Freesat', or, 'Satellite' in this case.
Personally  I have never had  a need for Freestat, having Sky. A general guide here for all those who may be interested https://www.a516digital.com/2013/03/q-what-is-non-freesat-mode.html
