FMA-LG101 Configuration (Cont.)

FMA-LG101 Configuration using the FTG Device Configuration Application Software

1.Launch the FTG Device Configuration Application (v5.0.0 or higher). *

2.Click Configure and then FMA from the FTG Device Configuration Application menu bar to access the FMA Configuration Utility (see screen sample on page 9). Then, set the FMA Utility’s IP address, update the FMA-LG101 configuration, and configure the FMA clock and broadcast rate as described below.

Set the FMA Utility’s IP Address

The IP address specified in the FMA IP Communication section at the bottom right of the screen must be set to the FMA’s current IP address (see “FMA Configuration Prerequisites” on previous page).

a.If you need to modify the FMA Utility’s IP address, double-click anywhere within the IP Address field.

b.In the pop-up window, type the appropriate IP address, and then click OK. Or, to restore the IP address to the default value (10.20.1.120), click Default and then OK.

Update the FMA-LG101 with an FMA Configuration File

a.Use the current contents of the FMA Configuration List, or click the Open button above the FMA Configuration List window to open an existing FMA Configuration (.fma) file.

Note: When opening an existing FMA file, reconfirm the FMA Utility’s IP address, since the FMA file when saved, had an IP address associated with it.

b.Click the Write button in the FMA Configuration Transfer command section of the screen (below the FMA Configuration List window) to transfer the current contents of the FMA Configuration List to the FMA-LG101.

c.Once the system processes the request, a pop-up report message indicates success. Click OK to close the pop-up window and continue.

Set the FMA Clock

The facility for setting the FMA clock is located on the right side of the FMA Configuration Utility screen. Date and time must be set on the PC running the FTG Device Configuration Application prior to an attempt to set the FMA clock.

a.If desired, click the Auto DST checkbox. When checked, the FMA’s clock automatically observes Daylight Saving Time.

b.Click the Set Clock button to set the date and time of the FMA to the PC’s date and time.

c.In the Date & Time pop-up window (displays a snapshot of the PC's current date and time), confirm the settings, and then click Yes to synchronize the FMA’s clock with the PC's clock.

d.Once the system processes the request, a pop-up report message indicates success. Click OK to close the pop-up window and continue.

Set the FMA Broadcast Rate

The facility for setting the FMA broadcast rate is located on the right side of the FMA Configuration Utility screen. The broadcast rate determines the interval, in seconds, at which to repeat the broadcast of the date & time, the FTG Channel Map, and the FTG Installer Menu profile(s). (FMA-LG101 factory default broadcast rate is 300 seconds.)

(Continued on next page)

*If the configuring PC is running Windows Home Premium software, you must run the FTG Device Configuration Application as an administrative user in order to communicate with and configure the FMA-LG101.
