FTG Mode of Operation Overview

FTG Mode via CPU or EBL

FTG Mode enables Pro:Idiom  decryption and also allows logical channel mapping of physical channels.

As indicated in the introduction to this document, there are two separate and distinct methods for configuring LT770H TVs for FTG Mode of operation: one (new) method is to configure the TV CPU for FTG Mode operation, while the other is to configure the TV EBL for FTG Mode operation. FROM A LOCAL CONFIGURATION STANDPOINT, EACH OF THESE METHODS IS MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE. IF THE CPU IS IN FTG MODE, THE EBL CANNOT BE SWITCHED TO FTG MODE. LIKEWISE, IF THE EBL IS IN FTG MODE, THE CPU CANNOT BE SWITCHED TO FTG MODE.

FTG Mode via CPU

This mode provides the following features:

Logical channels mapped to either RF or IP delivered content.

Digital RF channel minor (program) numbers up to 999.

FTG Channel Map of up to 600 logical channels.

Start Channel set for RF, Aux input, or IP delivered content.

Pro:Centric data delivery over RF or IP.

FTG Mode via CPU requires that you use LG FTG File Manager PC software to create an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file. In this mode, the CPU is the owner of the FTG Channel Map and must be configured with an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings using one of the following processes:

Local: Configure an individual LT770H TV via its USB port using an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file on a USB memory device. The “Teach to TV (TLX)” process, along with associated procedures, is described on pages 40 to 44.

Remote: Configure all LT770H TVs at the site using a

Pro:Centric server head end device (Example: PCS150R). Load an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file on the Pro:Centric server using the TV E-Z Installation “Configuration” option in the Pro:Centric server Admin Client. Refer to the Pro:Centric Server Admin Client User Guide for further information.

FTG Mode via EBL

This mode provides the following features:

Logical channels mapped to RF delivered content.

Digital RF channel minor (program) numbers up to 255.

FTG Channel Map of up to 141 logical channels.

Start Channel set for RF or Aux input delivered content.

Pro:Centric data delivery over RF.

FTG Mode via EBL requires LG FTG Device Configuration Application PC software. In this mode, the EBL is the owner of the FTG Channel Map and must be configured with an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings using one of the following processes:

Local: Configure an individual LT770H TV’s EBL via its TV-LINK CFG jack using a direct PC-to-TV connection and the FTG Device Configuration Application. See Reference section, “FTG Mode via EBL (Local Configuration),” for information on the “Write” process for an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings.

Remote: Configure all LT770H TV EBLs at the site using a Free-To-Guest Management Appliance (FMA) head end device (Example: FMA-LG101). Refer to the Free-

To-Guest (FTG) Device Configuration Application User Guide and/or the Installation & Configuration Guide for the FMA device for further information.
