Using The Tv Zoning Feature - LG ProCentric 32LV570H Setup Manual

Reference: Using the TV Zoning Feature
This section describes the TV Zoning feature available with the LV570H model TVs. The TV Zoning
feature enables you to create localized confi gurations for TVs in selected locations, or "Zones," within the
installation environment, for example, a hotel lobby, fi tness center, restaurant, etc. This feature is primarily
intended for use when the TV is confi gured for FTG Mode via CPU operation. However, selected elements
of TV Zoning (Installer Menu and Setup Menu profi le Zone assignments) may also be used with TV cloning
processes using a USB memory device / ".tlx" fi le.
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 Confi guration
The FTG File Manager may be used to create an FTG Confi guration (.tlx) fi le that contains multiple
Installer Menu and Setup Menu profi les, each with its own Zone assignment. Up to nine unique Zones
can be designated for LV570H FTG Installer Menu and/or Setup Menu profi les. 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 Setup Menu profi le to specifi cally confi gure 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 confi gured 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 confi gured with corresponding FTG Installer Menu and/or 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 briefl y 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 Profi le Zone Assignments
The FTG File Manager main screen enables you to change the Zone assignment (default = Zone 0) for
each Installer Menu profi le to be included in an FTG Confi guration (.tlx) fi le. For example, you may wish
to create one LV570H Installer Menu profi le for the hotel lobby and another LV570H Installer Menu profi le
for the fi tness center, both of which are different from the FTG Installer Menu profi le used for standard
guest rooms. The TV Zoning feature enables you to save multiple LV570H FTG Installer Menu profi les,
each with its own Zone assignment, in one FTG Confi guration (.tlx) fi le. If each TV in the aforementioned
locations (Zones) has had its TV Zone # set appropriately, as described in the procedure on the following
page or via the EZ-Manager Wizard, the TV(s) will only be confi gured by the Installer Menu profi le that
matches its(their) Zone setting.
In the FTG File Manager main screen, you can also edit the Zone assignment for each Installer Menu
profi le and/or Setup Menu profi le already present in the FTG Confi guration List and Setup Menu List
windows.
Note: See also the FTG File Manager main screen overview on page 43. In addition, note that Setup
Menu profiles cannot be created in the FTG File Manager; they must be saved (exported) from a TV.
FTG Channel Map Zone Restrictions
The FTG Channel Map Editor in the FTG File Manager's FTG Channel Map Confi guration 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 defi ning or editing that channel.
