Hey guys,

got also a HU series tv and tried to get exlink to work. For now, everything works fine, except the power on command.
It seams that the device disables the serial interface if its powered off. Is there any way to make a standby mode on the serial interface of the tv. for example by the hidden service menue?

Possibly these features could keep TV alive enough. If not then standby is too deep for serial :)
Menu->System->General->Quickly Power OFF Samsung
and/or
Menu->System->General->Samsung Instant ON
Better root TV anyway, you'd get much more "automation" possibilities.

Thanks for the quick reply. "Samsung Instant On" is already on. Quickly Power OFF or similar is not visible there. Maybe it depends on my selected language which is german.
root would be a solution, but i´m a little bit scared to brick my device ;)

Nah no risk, worst case you have to change mainboard, but should never happen ;)
