Reference: FTG Device Firmware RF Downloader

The FMA-LG101 software web page provides a utility to download FTG device (EBL, LMT7Z9, or LMT7Z7) firmware via the RF distribution system. Use this procedure to update the firmware on the FTG device(s).

Note: TVs with FTG device(s) will not be operable during firmware download and update (approximately five minutes).

1.Launch a web browser, and type http://ipaddress in the browser’s address bar, where ipaddress is either the network IP address assigned by a DHCP server to the FMA-LG101 or the FMA-LG101’s default IP address (see “FMA-LG101 Configuration Prerequisites” information on page 13). Then, press Enter.

2.Click the FTG Device Firmware RF Downloader link at the bottom of the FMA-LG101 software web main page.

3.The system will display a login pop-up window. In the User Name field, type lg; in the Password field, type service. Then, click OK to continue to the FTG Device Firmware RF Downloader web page.

4.Click the Browse button at the right of the Firmware File To Upload field in the Firmware File Upload section of the screen.

5.Browse to the desired Firmware (.mot) file, select the file, and click the Open button.

6.Confirm that the path shown in the Firmware File To Upload field is correct for the Firmware file selected, and then click the Upload File button to upload the file to the FMA-LG101.

Note: After you click the Upload File button, the screen will begin to refresh/reload. The upload process may take a few seconds. Wait for the screen to completely reload before proceeding.

7.In the RF Downloader section of the screen, the Version indicator should now show the firmware version number that corresponds to the Firmware file you just uploaded. Click the check box at the right of the Version number to confirm its accuracy, and then click the Download button.

The broadcast of firmware completes in approximately two minutes, and the FTG device will require an additional two minutes to update firmware, after which the TV will become operable again.
