Pro:Centric Operation (Cont.)

Pro:Centric Setup

The Pro:Centric server provides the following functionality:

•Remote management/administration (TV E-Z Installation): The Pro:Centric server Admin Client provides remote management/administration facilities for downloading splash screens and software/firmware updates as well as facilities for downloading FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings for TVs that are in FTG Mode via CPU (see also “Remote Management in FTG Mode” on page 7).

The Data Channel must be set appropriately to enable Pro:Centric remote management/administration facilities. The Data Channel can be set either in the Installer Menu (item 119 DATA CHANNEL) or in the Pro:Centric Menu (see “Pro:Centric Setup” on page 46).

•Pro:Centric application: The application comprises the Pro:Centric interactive menus/features described on the previous page. Pro:Centric application settings are managed via the Pro:Centric server Admin Client.

In addition to the Data Channel, the Pro:Centric Application Mode must be set appropriately to enable the Pro:Centric application. The Pro:Centric Application Mode can be set either in the Installer Menu (item 098 PRO:CENTRIC) or in the Pro:Centric Menu (see “Pro:Centric Setup” on page 46).

Administration and management options for the Pro:Centric server are described in detail in the Pro:Centric™ Server Admin Client User Guide. This document describes only those settings that must be specified on the TVs.

Pro:Centric Modes of Operation

There are now two modes that enable Pro:Centric operation, as described below.

FTG Mode via CPU

This mode enables Pro:Idiom  decryption and also allows logical channel mapping of physical channels as described in the introduction to this document. See pages 33 to 44 for further information on FTG Mode operation and configuration.

Application Tuning Mode

If the TV is not in FTG Mode, but both the Data Channel and the Pro:Centric Application Mode have been set in the Installer Menu or the Pro:Centric Menu, the TV enters Application Tuning Mode. In Application Tuning Mode, the logical channel mapping of physical channels is done in the Pro:Centric application.

Also in Application Tuning Mode, only the Function Menu is available to end users instead of the TV setup menus (see sample display of the Function Menu under “Determining the TV Operating Mode” on page 34). Additionally, all Channel Map updates must be administered from the Pro:Centric server Admin Client; Teach To TV options will not be available from the USB Download Menu.

Note: The Installer Menu remains editable while the TV is in Application Tuning Mode.
