This section describes how to restore all factory defaults or just the Installer Menu factory defaults either on a
single TV that is currently in Pass-through or FTG Mode or on multiple TVs that are currently in FTG Mode.
Note:
If the TV(s) is/are currently in FTG Mode, restoring the factory defaults also resets the TV to Pass-
through Mode.
Installer Menu Item 117 FACT DEFAULT
If the TV is currently in Pass-through Mode, you can set Installer Menu item 117 FACT DEFAULT to 1 to
restore the Installer Menu factory defaults and clear the channel lineup, including any assigned channel
icons and custom text labels.
Factory “IN-STOP”
If the TV is currently in FTG Mode, a predefined value for Installer Menu item 117 FACT DEFAULT
enables access to initiate a factory “IN-STOP” process that will restore the TV to Pass-through Mode in
addition to restoring all factory defaults. The “IN-STOP” will also reactivate the Express Script Installer
Menu Wizard. Contact technical support for the required value for Installer Menu item 117 and for
additional information on performing the IN-STOP from the Installer Menu.
Additional FTG Mode Options
There are two additional options for restoring Pass-through Mode/Installer Menu factory defaults on TVs
that are in FTG Mode. The first enables you to restore a single TV to Pass-through Mode, while the second
enables you to restore multiple TVs to Pass-through Mode at one time. However, both options require that
you create a “Zero Mapped Channels” FTG Configuration (.tlx) file, i.e., an FTG Configuration file with no
data. Refer to the
Free-To-Guest (FTG) File Manager User Guide
for further information.
•
Using a USB memory device, “Teach” a “Zero Mapped Channels” FTG Configuration (.tlx) file to the TV.
Refer to “Teaching FTG Configuration to a TV” on pages 48 to 49 of this document for further information
on the Teaching process.
•
If your system uses a Pro:Centric server for remote management, use the Pro:Centric server Admin
Client to load a “Zero Mapped Channels” FTG Configuration (.tlx) file on the Pro:Centric server. Refer to
the
Pro:Centric Server Admin Client User Guide
for further information.
