Pro:Centric Operation (Cont.)

Pro:Centric Setup

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 to enable Pro:Centric remote management and/or the Pro:Centric application.

•Remote management (TV E-Z Installation): The Pro:Centric server Admin Client provides remote management facilities for downloading splash screens and software/firmware updates as well as facilities for downloading FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings for FTG Mode configuration.

•Pro:Centric application: The application, which operates in conjunction with FTG and PPV Modes, comprises the Pro:Centric interactive menus/features described on the previous page. Pro:Centric application settings are managed via the Pro:Centric Admin Client.

The Pro:Centric server settings can be configured using one of the following methods:

•When the TV is in a factory default state, the EZ-Manager Wizard provides automated or manual options for configuring the Pro:Centric server settings.

The EZ-Manager Wizard also provides a USB Configuration option that enables you to configure a TV for FTG Mode using an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file stored on a USB memory device. The FTG Configuration file incorporates FTG Installer Menu settings, which includes Installer Menu items 098 PRO:CENTRIC and 119 DATA CHANNEL.

Refer to “EZ-Manager Wizard” on pages 12 to 19 for further information on the EZ-Manager Wizard options.

•If the TV is in Pass-through Mode, either:

−−Set Installer Menu items 098 PRO:CENTRIC and 119 DATA CHANNEL to the appropriate values. Refer to “Installer Menu” information on pages 22 to 31 for further details. Also, as necessary, refer to “Custom Master TV Setup” information on pages 32 to 35 and/or cloning information on pages 37 to 41.

−−Configure the appropriate Pro:Centric server settings in the IP Environment / Pro:Centric Menu. You must use this option, in particular, if you wish to configure IP settings for the Pro:Centric server. See “Accessing the IP Environment Menu” on page 53 and “Pro:Centric Setup” on page 57 for further information.

Note: When the TV is in either Pass-through Mode or FTG Mode, you can also leave Installer Menu item 119 DATA CHANNEL set to its default value (255) to enable the TV’s Data Channel Auto Search feature to set the DATA CHANNEL value. See item 119 description on page 31 for additional information.

•If the TV is in FTG Mode, use the FTG File Manager to update the Pro:Centric and Data Channel Installer Menu items (along with their affiliated fields). Then transfer the FTG Installer Menu settings to the TV. Refer to the FTG Mode overview on pages 7 to 8 for further information on FTG Mode operation and configuration. Also, see note above regarding the option to use the TV’s Data Channel Auto Search feature to set the DATA CHANNEL value.
