Channel Lineup

Channels set in the TV memory, via Auto Tuning/manual editing or FTG configuration.

Function Menu

Available via Installer Remote “MENU” key. Indicates the TV is not in Pass-through Mode. Restricts menu options to a subset of the TV setup menus, allowing users to retain functional control, while disabling setup options.

Installer Menu

Defines commercial TV functionality based on the parameters set.

Pro:Centric Application

LG content delivery and communication interface that provides interactive entertain- ment, weather, amenities, etc. information for end users. (Powered by Pro:Centric server.)

Pro:Centric Admin Client

Channel Banks

Enables tiered channel programming options for hospital models. Each channel bank may offer a custom channel lineup.

Cloning

The process of capturing a Master TV Setup and transferring it to a Target TV. May be accomplished using either a USB memory device (available on select models) or clone programmer.

Clone Programmer

An accessory device (sold separately), such as the TLL-1100A or LT2002, used to transfer the Master TV Setup from the Master TV to the Target TV.

Commercial Mode

A mode of operation that provides a broad range of commercial TV features based on control (settings) provided by the PTC and/or an MPI control device.

CPU

The TV’s Central Processing Unit. Responsible for the presentation of video and audio from content received via the TV’s tuner or Aux inputs.

Express Script Installer Menu Wizard

Hospital model TV configuration wizard that guides the installer through the process of setting up essential hospital model features for a typical viewing application.

E-Z Installation

Enables splash screen image and TV configuration and firmware file downloads to selected TV models from a Pro:Centric server. Managed and administered via the Pro:Centric Admin Client.

FTG Mode

LG commercial TV mode that enables Pro:Idiom decryption and logical channel mapping. Implementation and TV operation is based on the “owner” of the FTG Logical Channel Map—the CPU or the EBL. LG’s proprietary PC software is required for configuration.
