Exporting a Clone File
This section describes how to export Master TV Setup configuration to a
USB memory device / Clone (.tlx) file.
Before You Begin
• Ensure the USB device has been formatted with FAT format.
• If the TV is NOT already in FTG Mode via CPU, complete the Custom
Master TV Setup procedure (see pages 32 to 34).
• If you would like the Target TV(s) to remain in Pass-through Mode after the
Clone file is imported, ensure the Master TV does not have an auto-tuned/
edited channel lineup; otherwise, importing the exported file will result in the
Target TV(s) being configured for FTG Mode via CPU.
• If you intend to use the TV Zoning feature, make sure to assign the
appropriate TV Zone # as described in Reference section, “Using the TV
Zoning Feature,” BEFORE performing the procedure below.
• It is not possible to clone a Master TV’s clock. Either set a Target TV’s
clock manually, or use the Auto Clock setting in the TV setup menus.
• Since the Export Clone File process retrieves the channel lineup from
the CPU, if the TV is currently in FTG Mode via EBL (FTG Channel Map
resides in EBL) it is not possible to export an FTG Channel Map.
Caution: Do not unplug the TV power cord or remove the USB
memory device while exporting is in progress, as doing so may
cause the TV to malfunction or harm the USB device, respectively.

Cloning Procedures
(Continued on next page)
Cloning typically refers to the process of using a Master TV Setup to configure a
Target TV. This section describes how to save (export) a Master TV Setup and then
transfer (import) it to a Target TV using a
USB memory device / Clone (.tlx) file.
You can also create
an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file using the FTG File Manager and
then use the Import Clone File procedure to transfer the configuration to Target TVs.
Refer to “Creating an FTG Configuration File” on pages 39 to 40, as necessary.
