Reference: Detailed Information For Making A Master TV
IMPORTANT INSTALLER SETUP INFORMATION! PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING...
To set up a master TV you will need to know how to
enter the L26W56X Installer menu and make changes to
the default values as required. If necessary, familiarize
yourself with the L26W56X Installer menu and how to
make and save changes in the menu, before attempting to clone the
L26W56X Master TV setup.
You will also need an
Installer remote control
similar to the one
shown in the front of this manual.
Finally, the TV’s clonable features need to be set up. This is a
critical step. If the Master TV display panel’s clonable features like
adding channel icons or channel labels are not correctly added, then
the cloned L26W56Xs TVs will all have problems.
As the cloning procedure is being performed, specific steps need to
be done at the indicated times to achieve the desired result. Be sure
to do each task as indicated. If a procedure or step is left out or not
performed completely, cloning may not work. At each step, pay
attention to assure the TV screen shows the proper message when
cloning. If the message indicated does not appear, there is a
problem with that step and cloning may not be successful. Cloning
is only possible when the signal source is an Analog channel, not a
digital channel.

RGB inputs will not take effect until the power is cycled (TV is
turned Off and On). To avoid confusion, disconnect all RGB inputs
before entering the Installer menu.
