Custom Master TV Setup (Cont.)

(Continued from previous page)

Note: If you intend to use a USB memory device / .tlx file for cloning purposes, and you wish to use the TV Zoning feature, make sure to assign a TV Zone # at this time as described in Reference section, “Using the TV Zoning Feature.”

Note: If you intend to clone the PTC, remember that only one TV source’s clonable setup menu settings will be cloned. Thus, for a clone programmer, the TV setup menu settings should be applicable to either an analog channel or Aux input, while for a USB device / .tll file, the TV setup menu settings should be applicable to the analog or digital channel or Aux input to which the Target TV will be set during the Teaching process.

Note: If desired and if appropriate depending on the cloning method to be used (see “Cloning Methods” on page 29), you can run Auto Tuning (see step 4) prior to completing this step.

Note: The next three steps (4 to 6) are applicable for PTC cloning only (i.e., cloning using a USB memory device / .tll file or clone programmer). If you intend to use a USB memory device / .tlx file for cloning purposes, proceed directly to step 7 to verify the TV setup.

4.(PTC cloning only / Optional) Run Auto Tuning.

Note: If you run Auto Tuning with the intention to clone the resulting Channel Map, you MUST use a USB memory device / .tll file or a clone programmer for this cloning purpose. If you Teach a .tlx file with an auto-tuned/edited Channel Map to a Target TV, this will put the Target TV in FTG Mode via CPU.

a)To search for all available analog and digital channels, go to the Channel Menu, select the Auto Tuning option, and follow the on-screen instructions.

b)Use the Channel Edit option in the Channel Menu to edit the channel lineup, as necessary, to include only free to guest (non-encrypted) channels.

•Add/delete channels per your system requirements.

•Use the Channel Label option in the Channel Menu to select the appropriate trademark/icon for each channel’s Channel-Time on-screen display. Icons are available for familiar channels, such as ABC, CBS, NBC, etc. Identifiable labels (icons) should enable the end user to readily know what common networks are available.

Note: If Installer Menu item 103 ATSC TUNE MODE is set for Physical Channel tuning (default and recommended setting), channels with minor channel numbers higher than 255 will not transfer correctly in step 5. If item 103 is set for Virtual Channel tuning and either the major or minor channel numbers are higher than 255, the channel(s) will not transfer correctly in step 5.

Note: You can add the channel icons in this step or as described in step 6. Also in step 6, you can add custom text labels for channels without icons.
