Using the Wi-Fi Zoning Feature with Cloning Configuration
A location-specific Wi-Fi configuration / TLX file may be saved (Learned) from an individual TV as part of a Master TV Setup and then be used during Teaching. First, the wireless network (i.e., the access point login data) must be configured in the Master TV’s IP Environment Menu (see “Wireless Network Connection” on page 54). Then, a Wi-Fi Zone # must be set in the Master TV (see “Set the TV Zone # and/or Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV” below). If desired, a TV Zone # may also be set in the Master TV.
For example, if the Wi-Fi Zone # is set to 4 and the TV Zone # is set to 5 before Learning is initiated, after Learning is completed, the Master TV’s Installer Menu profile will be saved with the Zone 5 assignment, and within that Installer Menu profile, the access point login data for wireless networking (i.e., SSID, security type, and security key) will be saved with a Wi-Fi Zone 4 assignment. In order to configure the Target TVs with the proper Installer Menu profile and access point login data, you must set both the TV Zone # and the Wi-Fi Zone # in the Target TVs accordingly before transferring (Teaching) the Master TV Setup. See “Set the TV Zone # and/or Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV” below. Also, see “Learning / Teaching a Master TV Setup using a TLX File” on pages 37 to 39 for additional information on the cloning processes. If the Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV is set to 0 (default), the TV will not obtain access point login data from the Installer Menu profile with which it is configured.
Set the TV Zone # and/or Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV
You can set the TV Zone # and/or the Wi-Fi Zone # in the EZ-Manager Wizard (see “EZ-Manager Wizard” on pages 12 to 19) or, if the TV is in Pass-through Mode, via the TV’s setup menus as described below. Note that the following procedure can only be performed while the TV is in Pass-through Mode. You will also be able to specify a Label (North, South, East, West) and Room Number for this TV, if desired.
1.Turn ON the TV.
2.Press MENU SETTINGS on the Installer Remote, and use the arrow navigation keys to select/highlight the OPTION menu option. Then, press OK.
3.Use the Up/Down arrows to select Zones & Room Number, and then press OK.
4.In the Zones, Label, and Room Number pop-up window, complete the appropriate fields as described below. Use the Left/Right arrow keys on the Installer Remote to navigate between each of the fields.
•Wi-Fi Zone: Enables you to set a Wi-Fi Zone # so that the TV can be configured with a particular access point’s login data for wireless networking. Login data (i.e., SSID, security type, and security key) may be provided in a TLX file to be used for configuration. If the Wi-Fi Zone # is set to 0, the TV will not be configured with login data from a TLX file.
To assign a Wi-Fi Zone, navigate to the Wi-Fi Zone field at the far left of the screen, and use the Up/ Down arrow keys to specify the desired Wi-Fi Zone # (1–99).
•TV Zone: Enables you to set a TV Zone # so that the TV can be configured with Installer Menu and/ or TV Setup Menu settings intended only for the assigned Zone. The Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu settings may be provided in a TLX file to be used for configuration. If the TV is being configured for FTG Mode, the TV Zone # setting also allows the TV to omit channels that have been restricted in the FTG Channel Map.
To change the TV Zone, navigate to the TV Zone field, and use the Up/Down arrow keys to specify the desired TV Zone # (0–8).
