Commercial Mode Overview (Cont.)
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, IP streams, 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).
Note:
Physical channel tuning is not available when IP channels are included in the FTG Channel Map.
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.

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
hospital/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.
Application Tuning Mode / Pro:Centric Direct
In Application Tuning Mode, the TV’s Channel Map resides in an application, such as LG’s Pro:Centric
Direct HTML application. With Pro:Centric Direct, the Channel Map is created in the Pro:Centric server’s
Admin Client web editor, and the tuning operation of the TV is controlled and restricted based on this
Pro:Centric Direct Channel Map.
Application Tuning Mode with the Pro:Centric Direct HTML application provides the following features:
•
Decryption of each Pro:Idiom
®
encrypted channel.
• Logical channel tuning of physical RF channels (digital and analog) and IP streams.
• Mapping of RF channels with minor (program) numbers up to 999.
