FTG Mode of Operation Overview

FTG Mode via CPU or EBL

FTG Mode enables Pro:Idiom  decryption and also allows logical channel mapping of physical channels.

As indicated in the introduction to this document, there are two separate and distinct methods for configuring LD320H/LD325H and LD340H/LD345H TVs for FTG Mode of operation: one (new) method is to configure the TV CPU for FTG Mode operation, while the other is to configure the TV EBL for FTG Mode operation. FROM A LOCAL CONFIGURATION STANDPOINT, EACH OF THESE METHODS IS MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE. IF THE CPU IS IN FTG MODE, THE EBL CANNOT BE SWITCHED TO FTG MODE. LIKEWISE, IF THE EBL IS IN FTG MODE, THE CPU CANNOT BE SWITCHED TO FTG MODE.

Note: LD320H/LD325H TVs must have the following minimum software loads in order to support FTG

Mode via CPU: CPU version 3.61 or later and PTC version 1.01.008 or later. If necessary, contact LG to obtain LD320H/LD325H CPU and PTC software files, and perform the software updates as described in Reference section, “Upgrading TV/PTC Software using a USB Memory Device.” If a Pro:Centric server is installed in the institution head end, you will also have the option to remotely reconfigure LD320H/LD325H TVs that are currently in FTG Mode via EBL for FTG Mode via CPU. Refer to the Pro:Centric™ Server Admin Client User Guide for further information.

Both FTG Mode via CPU and FTG Mode via EBL provide the following features:

Logical channels mapped to either RF delivered content.

Digital RF channel minor (program) numbers up to 255.

FTG Channel Map of up to 141 logical channels.

Start Channel set for RF or Aux input delivered content.

Pro:Centric data delivery over RF.

In addition, both FTG Mode via CPU and FTG Mode via EBL require LG FTG Device Configuration Application PC software to create an FMA Configuration (.fma) file. However, the configuration processes then diverge as follows:

FTG Mode via CPU

In this mode, the CPU is the owner of the FTG Channel Map and must be configured with an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings using one of the following processes:

Local: Configure an individual LD320H/LD325H or LD340H/LD345H TV via its USB port using an FMA Configuration (.fma) file on a USB memory device. The “Teach to TV (FMA)” process, along with associated procedures, is described on pages 32 to 35.

Remote: Configure all LD320H/LD325H or LD340H/ LD345H TVs at the site using a Pro:Centric server head end device (Example: PCS150R). Load an FMA Configu- ration (.fma) file on the Pro:Centric server using the TV E-Z Installation “Configuration” option in the Pro:Centric Server Admin Client. Refer to the Pro:Centric™ Server Admin Client User Guide for further information.

FTG Mode via EBL

In this mode, the EBL is the owner of the FTG Channel Map and must be configured with an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings using one of the following processes:

Local: Configure an individual LD320H/LD325H or LD340H/LD345H TV’s EBL via its TV-LINK CFG jack using a direct PC-to-TV connection and the FTG Device Configuration Application. The “Write” process for an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings is described on page 36.

Remote: Configure all LD320H/LD325H or LD340H/ LD345H TV EBLs at the site using a Free-To-Guest Man- agement Appliance (FMA) head end device (Example: FMA-LG101). Refer to the Free-To-Guest (FTG) Con- figuration Application manual and/or the Installation & Setup manual for the FMA device for further information.
