Commercial Mode Overview (Cont.)
While the TV is in FTG Mode:
• Users can still access the Installer Menu using an LG Installer Remote; however, all Installer Menu items
will be read-only.
•
FTG Mode via CPU configuration changes must be made using a “.tlx” file (typically edited in the
Cloud
Configuration Tool), while FTG Mode via EBL configuration changes must be made using the FTG Device
Configuration Application. Channel Map and Installer Menu configuration utilities in both applications
enable you to make changes, respectively, to the FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings
as necessary. Based on the initial method used to configure the TV for FTG Mode
operation (via CPU or
EBL), all subsequent changes must be transferred to either the TV CPU or the EBL via a process that is
in accordance or compatible with that method
(see information on local configuration
in this document or
refer to documentation for the head end device/server for information on remote management).
• If it becomes necessary to restore the TV to Pass-through Mode, there are several options that will enable
you to do so. See Reference section, “Restoring Factory Defaults on the TV(s),” for further information.
Pages 45 to 50 provide overviews of the utilities that comprise the
Cloud Configuration Tool
. Refer to
the
Cloud Configuration Tool User Guide
for further information on the
Cloud Configuration Tool
. Refer
to the
Free-To-Guest (FTG) Device Configuration Application
User Guide
for information on the FTG
Device Configuration Application.
Remote Management in FTG Mode
When the TV is configured for FTG Mode via CPU, remote management of the FTG Channel Map and FTG
Installer Menu settings is provided by a Pro:Centric server, via a
Clone/Configuration (.tlx)
file loaded on the
Pro:Centric Admin Client. See the
Pro:Centric Server Admin Client User Guide
for further information.
When the TV is configured for FTG Mode via EBL, the
b
-LAN module, which is internal to the TV, allows
hotel/institution head end equipment (for example, an FMA-LG102) with
b
-LAN technology to provide remote
management of the FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings. See Reference section, “
b
-LAN
Setup & Overview,” for further information.
Determining the TV Operating Mode
To determine the operating mode of the TV, press
MENU SETTINGS
on the Installer Remote. The menu
displayed depends on the operating mode. See examples below.
If the Function Menu appears, the TV is in a mode (FTG, PPV, etc.) that does not allow the end user to
change the fundamental TV setup. If the TV setup menus appear, the TV is in Pass-through Mode.
