[LG OLED TV Remote] Nearby Devices Activate When Turning On

Troubleshooting

Causes and Symptoms

  • When you turn on the StandbyMe TV with the remote, the nearby TV also turns on.
  • When you turn on the TV with the remote, the nearby projector also turns on.
  • Both TVs turn on simultaneously.

Let's find out more.

LG Electronics' video devices use the same remote control signals, so if they are located in the same space, they may operate simultaneously.
While the StandbyMe TV and some projectors can be set to use a dedicated remote, products that do not support this feature cannot be set to operate with only the desired remote.
It is recommended to install them in different locations if possible.

Try this.
