Reference: Using the TV's Zoning Features (Cont.)
Note: While a channel can be restricted from up to eight Zones, a TV can only ever be in (set for) one
Zone. See also the FTG Channel Map Editor overview on page 61.
At the same time, keep in mind that the TV Zone designations are not mutually exclusive. That is, you may
opt to place Zone restrictions on selected channels in the FTG Channel Map, but at the same time, you can
choose to confi gure all TVs at the site with the same Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu settings. For
example, an FTG Confi guration (.tlx) fi le being used to confi gure the TVs at a site may contain multiple
Installer Menu and TV Setup Menu profi les with different Zone assignments, as well as an FTG Channel Map
with Zone restrictions on several channels. Each TV that still has the default TV Zone 0 setting will only be
confi gured by the Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu profi le(s) with a Zone 0 designation. If, on the other
hand, the TV Zone # is set to 1, the TV will fi rst look in the fi le for the LX770M Installer Menu and/or TV Set-
up Menu profi le(s) with a Zone 1 designation. If none of the LX770M Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu
profi les has a Zone 1 designation, the TV will then look for the LX770M profi le(s) with a Zone 0 designation.
For the FTG Channel Map confi guration, when the TV Zone # is set to 0, the TV will ignore any Zone
restrictions (1–8) that may be placed on channels in the FTG Channel Map. However, when the TV Zone #
is set to 1, the TV will omit any channels that have been restricted from Zone 1 in the FTG Channel Map.
Using the TV Zoning Feature with Cloning Confi guration
A location-specifi c confi guration / Clone (.tlx) fi le may be saved (exported) from a Master TV and then be
used to confi gure Target TVs. For example, if the TV Zone # in the Master TV is set to 3 before the Clone
fi le export is initiated, the Master TV's Installer Menu and TV Setup Menu profi les will be saved with the TV
Zone 3 assignment. In order to confi gure the Target TVs with the Zone 3 Installer Menu and TV Setup Menu
profi les exported from the Master TV, you must set the TV Zone # accordingly in the Target TVs before
importing the Clone fi le. See "Set the TV Zone # and/or Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV" on the following page.
Also, see "Cloning Procedures" on pages 50 to 56 for additional information on the cloning processes. TV
Zone 0 is the default TV Zone #.
Wi-Fi Zoning Feature
The Wi-Fi Zoning feature enables you to use a Clone/Confi guration (.tlx) fi le to confi gure an individual TV or
group of TVs with a particular Wi-Fi access point's login data to create "Wi-Fi Zones" within the installation
environment.
Using the Wi-Fi Zoning Feature with FTG Mode via CPU Confi guration
The FTG File Manager may be used to create an FTG Confi guration (.tlx) fi le with an FTG Installer Menu
profi le that contains login data for multiple Wi-Fi access points, each assigned a Wi-Fi Zone #. Up to 100
Wi-Fi Zones can be designated within each FTG Installer Menu profi le, thus allowing for distribution of the
Wi-Fi network load. For example, if a site has 50 LX770M TVs within close proximity, you may wish to
create 10 Wi-Fi Zones, each with its own access point that has unique login data, so that no more than
fi ve of the TVs are connected to one access point at any given time.
In order for a TV to be confi gured by the proper Installer Menu profi le with the desired Wi-Fi access point
login data for wireless networking (i.e., SSID, security type, and security key), you must set both the TV Zone
# and the Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV (see "Set the TV Zone # and/or Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV" on the following
page for further information). If the Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV is set to 0 (default), the TV will not obtain access
point login data from the Installer Menu profi le with which it is confi gured unless the profi le contains the
global Wi-Fi Zone 100. Any TV that does not fi nd its matching Wi-Fi Zone # in the FTG Confi guration fi le, but
does fi nd the global Wi-Fi Zone 100, will be confi gured with the global access point login data.
Refer to the Free-To-Guest (FTG) File Manager User Guide for further information on defi ning Wi-Fi
Zones in the FTG File Manager.
