Nice to meet you, *****!
All Samsung TVs have a TV control button that will allow you to turn the TV on/off, and change the volume and source input. You can find it on TV directly.

You have to use the remote that goes with your TV, you can't control both devices with one remote.

1. Open Settings, and then select General.
2. Select Reset, enter your PIN (0000 is the default), and then select Reset.
3. To complete the reset, select OK. Your TV will restart automatically.
After it will finish restarting, please try to turn it on
and off with your remote.
