LG 22LX570M Commercial Mode Setup Manual page 8

Commercial Mode Overview (Cont.)
When the TV CPU is configured with an FTG Channel Map, the CPU controls and restricts the tuning
operation of the TV, and when the EBL is configured with an FTG Channel Map, the EBL controls and
restricts the tuning operation of the TV. In these models, FTG Mode via CPU also provides the option to
select either logical or physical tuning (see note below) during configuration. You must determine which
element of the TV will own the FTG Channel Map before you can begin configuration.
Note: Logical channel mapping of physical RF channels eliminates dash tuning; for example, physical
19-3 can be mapped to logical channel 9. It also allows physical RF channels and Aux inputs to be listed
in any order, not only in physical numeric ascending order. Physical channel tuning requires that you
include the dash when direct entering RF channel numbers and Aux inputs (the latter designated by 130-0
through 137-0).
FTG Mode via CPU
This mode provides the following features:
• Logical or physical tuning of physical RF channels and
Aux inputs.
• Mapping of RF channels with minor (program) numbers
up to 999.
• FTG Channel Map of up to 600 channels.
• Start Channel set for RF or Aux input delivered content.
• Pro:Centric data delivery over RF.
• TV Zoning option for location-specific configuration.
LG's FTG File Manager PC software enables you to
create an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file, which may be used
to configure the CPU for FTG Mode. You can also create a
Clone (.tlx) file from a Master TV Setup that may be used
to configure the CPU for FTG Mode. 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 LX570M TV via its USB
port using a USB memory device / ".tlx" file. The file
may be either a Clone file (see Cloning Procedures" on
pages 43 to 46) or an FTG Configuration file (see "FTG
File Manager Utilities Overview" on pages 47 to 52).
• Remote: Configure all LX570M TVs at the site using
a Pro:Centric server head end device (Example:
PCS200R). Refer to the Pro:Centric Server Admin
Client User Guide for further information.

FTG Mode via EBL
This mode provides the following features:
• Logical tuning of physical RF channels and Aux inputs.
• Mapping of RF channels with 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.
LG's FTG Device Configuration Application PC software
is required to configure the EBL. 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 LX570M TV's EBL
via its TV-LINK CFG jack using a direct PC-to-TV
(EBL) 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 LX570M 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.
