Custom Master TV Setup

This section describes how to create a customized Master TV Setup for cloning purposes when the TV is in Pass-through Mode.

Note: Cloning requirements and procedures are described in detail on pages 41 to 45. Refer to FTG Mode information on pages 46 to 52 for details on entering FTG Mode and configuring/editing the FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings.

Before You Begin

It is recommended that you disconnect all Aux inputs if you intend to run Auto Tuning (Channel Search). Under certain conditions, Auto Tuning is disabled if there is an Aux input active.

If not disabled in the Installer Menu, Aux inputs will appear in the channel lineup between analog and digital channels after the TV setup is transferred to the commercial controller (PTC).

All Learning and Teaching processes on these TV models are performed via USB memory device. See “Cloning Methods” below to determine the type of file—either the TLX file format or the legacy TLL file format—to use for cloning purposes. Several of the Master TV Setup procedure steps are dependent on the desired file type.

Cloning Methods

See also “Clonable TV Setup Menu Features” list below.

Using a USB Memory Device / TLX File

The TLX file format clones Installer Menu settings, IP Environment Menu settings (with the exception of network settings), and all TV sources’ (analog, digital, AV1, HDMI, etc.) clonable setup menu settings.

Not intended for cloning an auto-tuned/edited channel lineup, as the channel lineup is converted to an FTG Channel Map when saved (Learned) from a TV to a TLX file. If the TLX file with the FTG Channel Map is then used for Teaching purposes, the Target TV(s) will be configured for FTG Mode.

Using a USB Memory Device / TLL File

The TLL file format only clones the contents of the commercial controller (PTC) memory, which is limited to an auto-tuned/edited channel lineup, Installer Menu settings, and one TV source’s (analog, digital, or Aux) clonable setup menu settings.
