Using The Tv Zoning Feature - LG 22LY560M Commercial Mode Setup Manual

Reference: Using the TV Zoning Feature
This section describes the TV Zoning feature available with the LY560M model TVs. The TV Zoning
feature enables you to create localized configurations for TVs in selected locations, or "Zones," within the
installation environment, for example, a hotel lobby, fitness center, restaurant, etc. This feature is primarily
intended for use when the TV is configured for FTG Mode operation. However, selected elements of TV
Zoning (Installer Menu and TV Setup Menu profile Zone assignments) may also be used with TV cloning
processes using a USB memory device / TLX file.
Refer to the appropriate section(s) below for further information on the TV Zoning feature and how to set the
TV Zone # in a TV that is currently in Pass-through Mode.
Using the TV Zoning Feature with FTG Mode via CPU Configuration
The FTG File Manager may be used to create an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file that contains multiple Installer
Menu and TV Setup Menu profiles, each with its own Zone assignment. Up to nine unique Zones can be
designated for LY560M FTG Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu profiles. Zone restrictions can also be
placed on individual channels in the FTG Channel Map. Thus, for example, you may create an FTG Installer
Menu and/or TV Setup Menu profile to specifically configure a TV in the hotel lobby and also restrict the
channels that are available to be tuned on that TV.
The TV Zone # must be set appropriately on each TV in order for the TVs to be configured correctly. See
"Set the TV Zone # in the TV" on the following page, and set the TV Zone # in all the TVs in a select area, so
that the TVs are configured with corresponding FTG Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu settings and/or
can omit channels that have been restricted in the FTG Channel Map. TV Zone 0 is the default TV Zone #.
The following subsections briefly describe how to assign Zone designations in the FTG File Manager.
Refer to the Free-To-Guest (FTG) File Manager User Guide for further information.
FTG Installer Menu Profile Zone Assignments
The FTG File Manager main screen enables you to change the Zone assignment (default = Zone 0) for
each Installer Menu profile to be included in an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file. For example, you may wish
to create one LY560M Installer Menu profile for the hotel lobby and another LY560M Installer Menu profile
for the fitness center, both of which are different from the FTG Installer Menu profile used for standard
guest rooms. The TV Zoning feature enables you to save multiple LY560M FTG Installer Menu profiles,
each with its own Zone assignment, in one FTG Configuration (.tlx) file. If each TV in the aforementioned
locations (Zones) has had its TV Zone # set appropriately, as described in the procedure on the following
page, the TV(s) will only be configured by the Installer Menu profile that matches its(their) Zone setting.
In the FTG File Manager main screen, you can also edit the Zone assignment for each Installer Menu
profile and/or TV Setup Menu profile already present in the FTG Configuration List and TV Setup Menu
List windows.
Note: See also the FTG File Manager main screen overview on page 53. In addition, note that TV Setup
Menu profiles cannot be created in the FTG File Manager; they must be "Learned" from a TV.
FTG Channel Map Zone Restrictions
The FTG Channel Map Editor in the FTG File Manager's FTG Channel Map Configuration Utility enables
you to place Zone restrictions on individual channels that may be prohibited or deemed unsuitable for
selected locations. In the FTG Channel Map Editor, one or more Zone restrictions (1–8) may be placed on
each channel that is to be restricted. For example, if you wish to restrict a channel from Zones 2 and 4,
select both "Zone 2" and "Zone 4" in the Zone Restriction section of the FTG Channel Map Editor screen
when defining or editing that channel.
