Ez Download Utility
(Continued on next page)
The Ez Download utility, available from the TV Manager / USB Download Menu, enables you to
select multiple files (one of each file type) at one time from the files loaded on a USB memory
device. You may use this utility to download any one or all of the following to a TV: a Clone or FTG
Configuration (.tlx) file, a TV CPU or PTC software update, a splash screen image.
Before You Begin
• Ensure the USB device has been formatted with FAT format.
•
Software update and splash screen image files must be stored in a folder named “LG_DTV” in
the root directory of the USB memory device. Clone/Configuration (.tlx) files should simply be
stored in the root directory of the USB device.
•
If you have initiated the EZ-Manager Wizard, you can use the wizard’s “USB Configuration”
option to access the Ez Download utility, if desired (see “TV Configuration Options” and/or “USB
Configuration” on pages 14 and 18, respectively, as necessary).
• If the TV is currently in Pass-through Mode and you intend to use the TV Zoning feature for
location-specific configuration purposes, make sure to assign the appropriate TV Zone # in the
TV when directed to do so in the procedure below.
•
When creating files to be downloaded, avoid using special characters (?, &, @, etc.) in filenames.
• Refer to “Custom Master TV Setup” on pages 40 to 42 for information on creating a Clone (.tlx)
file, and/or
refer to “Creating an FTG Configuration File” on pages 47 to 48 for information on
creating an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file for FTG Mode via CPU configuration.
• See Reference section, “Downloading a Splash Screen Image using a USB Memory Device,” for
splash screen image guidelines.
• See Reference section, “Updating TV/PTC Software using a USB Memory Device,” for further
information on software updates.
Caution: Do not unplug the TV power cord or remove the USB memory device
during a data download, as doing so may cause the TV to malfunction or harm the
USB device, respectively.
Accessing and Using the Ez Download Utility
1. If it is not ON already, turn ON the TV.
2. The next step depends on whether the LG Setup Wizard appears on the screen when you turn
ON the TV:
• If the wizard is displayed, you can access the Ez Download utility via the EZ-Manager Wizard,
as indicated above (see “Before You Begin”). However, to continue with this procedure and
access the Ez Download utility from the TV menus, exit the Setup Wizard. Then, continue with
step 3.
• If the wizard is not displayed, go directly to step 3.
3. If the TV is currently in Pass-through Mode, you would like to transfer (import) a “.tlx” file to
the TV via the Ez Download utility, and you intend to use the TV Zoning feature, assign the
appropriate TV Zone # in the TV at this time. See Reference section, “Using the TV Zoning
Feature,” for further information.
