FTG Mode of Operation Overview
FTG Mode via CPU
This mode provides the following features:
• Logical channels mapped to either RF or IP delivered
content.
• Digital RF channel minor (program) numbers up to 999.
• FTG Channel Map of up to 600 logical channels.
• Start Channel set for RF, Aux input, or IP delivered content.
• Pro:Centric data delivery over RF or IP.
FTG Mode via CPU requires that you use LG FTG File
Manager PC software to create an FTG Conguration (.tlx)
le. In this mode, the CPU is the owner of the FTG Channel
Map and must be congured with an FTG Channel Map
and FTG Installer Menu settings using one of the following
processes:
• Local: Congure an individual LT770H TV via its USB port
using an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le on a USB memory
device. The “Teach to TV (TLX)” process, along with
associated procedures, is described on pages 40 to 44.
• Remote: Congure all LT770H TVs at the site using a
Pro:Centric server head end device (Example: PCS150R).
Load an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le on the Pro:Centric
server using the TV E-Z Installation “Conguration”
option in the Pro:Centric server Admin Client. Refer to the
Pro:Centric Server Admin Client User Guide for further
information.
FTG Mode via EBL
This mode provides the following features:
• Logical channels mapped to RF delivered content.
• Digital RF channel minor (program) numbers up to 255.
• FTG Channel Map of up to 141 logical channels.
• Start Channel set for RF or Aux input delivered content.
• Pro:Centric data delivery over RF.
FTG Mode via EBL requires LG FTG Device Conguration
Application PC software. In this mode, the EBL is the owner
of the FTG Channel Map and must be congured with an
FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings using
one of the following processes:
• Local: Congure an individual LT770H TV’s EBL via its
TV-LINK CFG jack using a direct PC-to-TV connection and
the FTG Device Conguration Application. See Reference
section, “FTG Mode via EBL (Local Conguration),” for
information on the “Write” process for an FTG Channel
Map and FTG Installer Menu settings.
• Remote: Congure all LT770H TV EBLs at the site using
a Free-To-Guest Management Appliance (FMA) head
end device (Example: FMA-LG101). Refer to the Free-
To-Guest (FTG) Device Configuration Application
User Guide and/or the Installation & Conguration Guide
for the FMA device for further information.
FTG Mode via CPU or EBL
FTG Mode enables Pro:Idiom decryption and also allows logical channel mapping of physical channels.
As indicated in the introduction to this document, there are two separate and distinct methods for configuring
LT770H TVs for FTG Mode of operation: one (new) method is to configure the TV CPU for FTG Mode
operation, while the other is to configure the TV EBL for FTG Mode operation. FROM A LOCAL
CONFIGURATION STANDPOINT, EACH OF THESE METHODS IS MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE. IF THE
CPU IS IN FTG MODE, THE EBL CANNOT BE SWITCHED TO FTG MODE. LIKEWISE, IF THE EBL IS
IN FTG MODE, THE CPU CANNOT BE SWITCHED TO FTG MODE.
