Commercial TVs have the capability to support cloning internal TV data and programme information
with an external clone device called “TVLink-Loader”, in order to copy TV data accurately and quickly .
The clone internal functions use slightly different internal processes for the two types of commercial
TVs . However, the UI of cloning feature remains the same in both .
Regarding the demands over the current cloning feature for quicker cloning, better portability and etc,
we would like to announce the cloning process via USB port, named as USB Cloning .
USB cloning process is divided into 2 main processes . One is writing the previously saved TV data into
the TV, and one another is reading of current TV data into USB memory card . To avoid any confusion
due to the words, it is clearly specified as “Receive from USB” and “Send to USB” in the whole process .
The data cloned are the same data cloned by previous TVLink-Loader . Details are explained in the fol-
lowing:
1 . TV data includes:
A . Installer Menu settings
B . Main menu settings (Audio, Picture etc)
2 . Analog / Digital Channel information includes:
A . Channel numbers
B . Channel label
C . Channel attributes including channel type, skipping status and etc .
The user needs a USB memory card with FAT formatted to make successive cloning via USB port . A
USB memory card size more than 128 Mega Bytes and less than 4 Giga Bytes is recommended .

NOTE
Currently, support the preceding USB file system for FAT file format only . Other file formats including
NTFS is not currently supported . Microsoft Windows officially supports FAT for the USB memory
card .
* Copy Data item : Programme Data, Installation Menu(excluding the Set ID), Picture, Sound, Option(Special)
- The other data can be different depending on the chassis .
- Because the Picture Mode: Expert (ISF) Data of the Picture item is charged or the
image quality calibration function by set, it should not be copied .

tion of data sending .
