Commercial Mode Overview (Cont.)

Cloning

Cloning refers to the process of capturing a Master TV Setup and transferring it to a Target TV (both TVs must be in Pass-through Mode). The Master TV’s clonable setup menu options should be configured as part of the Master TV Setup. If there are features in the Master TV’s setup—channel icons or labels, digital font options, etc.—that are not set or that are set incorrectly, those features also will not be set or will be set incorrectly in the Target TVs. Pages 23 to 29 provide detailed information on cloning requirements and procedures.

FTG Mode

This mode enables Pro:Idiom ® decryption and also allows logical channel mapping of physical channels to remove the need for dash tuning. TV operation in FTG Mode is based on which element of the TV owns the FTG Logical Channel Map—the CPU or the EBL. Understanding the application in which the TV will be used is vital in determining the owner.

As indicated above, FTG mode operation in the LD320H/LD325H and LD340H/LD345H models can be provided either by the TV CPU or EBL (see note below). These are two separate and distinct FTG Modes of operation, each with its own unique advantages and requirements as described later in this document. When the TV CPU is configured with an FTG Channel Map, the CPU controls the operation of the TV, and when the EBL is configured with an FTG Channel Map, the EBL controls the operation of the TV.

Once it is determined whether the TV CPU or the EBL will own the FTG Channel Map, configuration can begin. Configuration of either requires the LG FTG Device Configuration Application. This application pro- vides utilities that enable you to create/edit an FTG Channel Map and configure Installer Menu settings. See pages 30 to 40 for further information on FTG Mode operation and configuration.

Note: LD320H/LD325H TVs must have the following minimum software loads in order to support FTG

Mode via CPU: CPU version 3.61 or later and PTC version 1.01.008 or later. If necessary, contact LG to obtain LD320H/LD325H CPU and PTC software files, and perform the software updates as described in Reference section, “Upgrading TV/PTC Software using a USB Memory Device.”

Remote Management in FTG Mode

When the TV is configured for FTG Mode via CPU, remote management of the FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings is provided by a Pro:Centric server. Refer to the Pro:Centric™ Server Admin Client User Guide for further information.

When the TV is configured for FTG Mode via EBL, the b-LAN module, which is internal to the TV, allows hotel/institution head end equipment (for example, an FMA-LG101) with b-LAN technology to communi- cate with the TV to provide remote management of the FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu set- tings. See Reference section, b-LAN Setup & Overview,” for further information.

External MPI Control

To control the TV using an external MPI control device, you must use the TV’s GAME CONTROL/MPI port for communication purposes. In these TVs, Installer Menu item 118 POWER SAVINGS controls the power circuitry for both the embedded b-LAN module and the GAME CONTROL/MPI port; therefore, to ensure that the GAME CONTROL/MPI port circuitry is powered, thus enabling MPI communication, Installer Menu item 118 POWER SAVINGS must be set appropriately. See Installer Menu item descriptions as well as reference section, b-LAN Setup & Overview,” for further information.
