Clone Programmer Troubleshooting

Caution: Do not connect a clone programmer to a PPV card installed in the

Master or Target TVs. Also, if the TV is in LodgeNet PPV Mode (check with the site administrator if you are not certain), do not connect a clone programmer to the GAME CONTROL/MPI port. Either of these actions will damage the clone programmer and, if applicable, the PPV card.

Reset Clone Programmer After Static Shock

After replacing exhausted batteries (LT2002 only), or if the clone programmer behaves strangely after a static shock:

•TLL-1100A: Turn the TLL-1100A OFF and then ON.

•LT2002: Use a paper clip or similar instrument inserted through the small hole marked RESET to activate the internal reset switch and restore normal operation.

After a reset, check the real-time clock setting. It may be necessary to set the clone programmer clock from a TV containing the correct time.

Note: Both the Master and Target TVs must be in Pass-through Mode for cloning purposes. See also IMPORTANT CLONING INFORMATION on page 24.
