In this mode, the STB’s CPU must be configured with an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu
settings using one of the following processes:
•
Local: Configure an individual STB-5500 via its USB port using a USB memory device /
“.tlx”
file. The file
may be either a Clone file (see “Clon
ing Procedures” on pages 45 to 51) or
an FTG Configuration file
(see “FTG File Manager Utilities Overview” on pages 52 to 57).
•
Remote: Configure all STB-5500s at the site using a Pro:Centric server head end device (Example:
PCS200S). Refer to the
Pro:Centric Server Admin Client User Guide
for further information.
While the STB 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.
•
Any FTG configuration changes must be made using a
“.tlx”
file (typically edited in the FTG File Manager).
The FTG File Manager’s
FTG Channel Map Configuration and FTG Installer Menu Configuration Utilities
enable you to make changes, respectively, to the FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings as
necessary. S
ee information on local configuration in this document or refer to documentation for the server
for information on remote management.
• If it becomes necessary to restore the STB to Pass-through Mode, there are several options that will
enable you to do so. See Reference section, “Restoring Factory Defaults on the STB(s),” for further
information.
Pages 52 to 57 provide overviews of the utilities that comprise the FTG File Manager. Refer to the
Free-
To-Guest (FTG) File Manager User Guide
for further information on the FTG File Manager.
Remote Management in FTG Mode
When the STB is configured for FTG Mode, 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 server Admin Client. See the
Pro:Centric Server Admin Client User Guide
for further
information.
Determining the STB Operating Mode
To determine the operating mode of the STB, press
MENU
on the Installer Remote. The menu displayed
depends on the operating mode. See examples below. If the Function Menu appears, the STB is in a
mode (FTG, PPV, etc.) that does not allow the end user to change the fundamental STB setup. If the STB
setup menus appear, the STB is in Pass-through Mode.
