FTG Mode of Operation Overview
FTG Mode via CPU
This mode provides the following features:
• Logical channels mapped to RF 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 or Aux input delivered content.
• Pro:Centric data delivery over RF.
• TV Zoning option for location-specic conguration.
FTG Mode via CPU requires that you use LG FTG File
Manager PC software to create an FTG Conguration (.tlx)
le, which will in turn be used to congure the CPU. 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 LP645H 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 45 to 49.
• Remote: Congure all LP645H TVs at the site using a
Pro:Centric server (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 that you use LG FTG Device
Conguration Application PC software to congure the EBL.
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 LP645H 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 LP645H 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
LP645H 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.
