Reference: Updating STB Software using a USB Memory Device

This section describes how to update STB (CPU) and/or PTC software using the STB Manager / USB Download Menu “Update STB Software” and/or “Update PTC Software” option(s), respectively, though you may also use the Ez Download utility to update software, if desired. See “Ez Download Utility” on pages 25 to 28 for further information.

Before You Begin

•Software update files must be stored in a folder named “LG_DTV” in the root directory of the

USB memory device.

•Ensure the USB device has been formatted with FAT format.

Update the STB/PTC Software

Note: You can check the STB/PTC software versions by accessing the Installer Menu with the Installer Remote. See “Accessing the Installer Menu” on page 29 for further information. PTC and CPU versions are displayed in the Installer Menu footer.

Note for STB CPU Software Update only: If the STB detects a software file on the USB device, it will automatically display an Update STB Software screen, and if the file contains a later version of software than is currently running on the STB, you can start the software update from this screen (select UPDATE and press OK). Otherwise, you can exit the screen (select CANCEL and press OK), and access the STB Manager / USB Download Menu as described below.

1.Turn ON the STB/display panel, and then insert the USB memory device into either of the USB ports on the STB.

2.Press MENU on the Installer Remote to display the STB setup menus (STB is in Pass-through Mode) or the Function Menu (STB is not in Pass-through Mode).

3.Use the arrow navigation keys to select/highlight either the General menu icon from the STB setup menus or the Safety menu icon from the Function Menu. Then, press the number “7” key a total of seven times to display the STB Manager / USB Download Menu.

4.With the STB Manager / USB Download Menu on display, use the Up/Down arrow keys to select Update STB Software or Update PTC Software, as applicable, and press OK. Note: The STB Manager / Diagnostics Menu is for service use only.
