Owner's Manual
In the easy to clean, membrane control panel, on the lower front of the TV, there
are 11 large, easy to read, buttons. Either the patient or the TV representative
can use the 5 buttons on the right side, to turn the TV on and off, change
channels and raise or lower the sound. These functions can be controlled as well,
with the infrared hand unit. The far right side of this panel responds to the infrared
beam produced when you press the buttons on the hand held infrared unit.
On the left side of the membrane control panel, the Menu button and the Enter
button makes it easy for patients to rent the television or "self rent", as it is called,
when the TV representative is not present. The other 4 buttons, on the left side of
the panel, become active when the L-10D ELF TV is operated as part of a
computerized system. Patients can then use these buttons to select from the
menu options that appear on the TV.
The infrared hand unit lets the TV representative manage the special features of
the L-10D ELF, such as levels of service, channel groupings and selections and
as well change the quality of the picture, features and choice of language.
The L-10D ELF is capable of receiving both Analog and Digital channels. The L10-D EFL infrared hand unit has numbered buttons which allow direct selection of
TV channels. Digital channel numbers can consist of a maximum of 4 Major digits
and 3 Minor digits. The Major and Minor digits are separated by a dash. Analog
channels have only three Major digits and the Minor digits are assumed to be 000.
It is only necessary to enter the significant digits of a channel number followed by
the ENT button on the IR Hand Unit. Pressing 3 followed by ENT will select
channel 3 Analog. Pressing 3,dash,1,ENT will select channel 3-1 Digital. Unless
in the SETUP MENU only channels in the Channel Map set for the current Level
of Service may be selected.In addition to normal TV channels the L-10D ELF has
Composite Audio/Video and PC (VGA) inputs. These inputs may be added to to
one or more Channel Maps so that they can be accessed just like a normal TV
channel. Video channel has been assigned the arbitrary channel number of 0-1
and only supports analog signals. PC Channel has been assigned the arbitrary
channel number of 0-2.
Note: Unless specially modified, the Video and PC inputs are only accessible
inside the TV.

3. Basic Unpaid Service Level
When a patient "self rents", the TV automatically goes to the Basic Unpaid
Service Level. All the entertainment channels available in the hospital, as well as
the education and information channels must be programmed into this service
level.
This confirms that the TV is rented but the rental fee is not paid.
4. Basic Paid Service Level
When you collect the rental fee and press the PAID button on the infrared hand
unit, the TV automatically changes to the Basic Paid Service Level. The Basic
Paid and the Basic Unpaid Service Levels should be assigned the same group of
channels (channel Map).
This confirms that the TV is rented and the rental fee is paid.
5. Premium 1 Service Level
This level of service is available only when special services such as "pay per
view" movies or events or movie channels are offered at an additional cost to the
basic service level. The Premium 1 Service Level is usually made available to
patients who have rented and paid for the basic service level.
6. Premium 2 Service Level
This service level, when provided, is in addition to Premium 1. Premium 2
Service Level must include its own selected channel(s) as well as the channel(s)
programmed in Premium 1 Service Level. The Premium 2 Service Level is usually
only made available to patients who have the Basic Paid Service Level and the
Premium 1 Service Level.
IN NON-RENTAL ACCOUNTS, TV MUST BE PROGRAMMED IN THE BASIC UNPAID
OR BASIC PAID SERVICE LEVEL. THIS WILL DISABLE THE SELF RENT FEATURE.

Owner's Manual
TV's are generally programmed for the required service levels before they are
installed in a hospital. When you replace TV's or when channel numbers change,
reprogramming is needed.
A Level of Service consists of a Channel Map (list of TV channels the user is
permitted to view) along with whether the speaker is enabled or disabled. Each
Level of Service may be assigned a marquee channel (channel which is tuned to
whenever the TV is turned on).
The most common service levels used are levels 1 to 4. Premium 1 and/or
Premium 2 Service Levels are used when "pay per view" movies or events or
when movie channels are offered at an extra charge.
1. Free Service Level
The Free Service Level lets patients watch hospital education and information
channels, without renting the television. The channels over which education and
information are broadcast must be programmed into this level of service.
Entertainment channels are not generally included and therefore are not
programmed into this Free Service Level.
2. Locked Service Level
The Locked Service Level does not let the
patient, "self rent" and when a patient tries to
do so, this message appears.
The free channels, over which education and
information are broadcast, must be programmed
into this service level so that the non paying
viewer can watch the free education
and information channels.
Locked service makes it possible to cut off rental, to those who continue to "self
rent" and then refuse to pay for this rental service.

"Self rent" is a valuable feature of the L-10D ELF television. Patients have the
option of enjoying entertainment programming when a TV representative is not
available to carry out the rental transaction.
The "self rent" feature is available when Free is the selected service level and
channels are assigned to the Rental: Basic Unpaid option.
How does a patient "self rent"?
To "self rent", patients press the MENU button
on the control panel of the TV or press the
MENU button on the infrared hand unit. This
message appears on the TV screen:
When the patient presses ENTER, either on
the infrared hand unit or on the control panel of
the L-10D ELF TV, the service level
automatically changes from Rental: Free to
Rental: Basic Unpaid.
From self rent to Rental: Basic Paid
When you collect the rental fee, press Paid on the infrared hand unit or

A Channel Map is a list of TV channels which the TV user is permitted to tune to.
The L-10D ELF provides 6 possible Channel Maps.
Only one Channel Map can be assigned to each Service Level but one Channel
Map may be assigned to several Service Levels.
Channel Maps are independent (not additive) so the channels which the user may
view in any given Service Level may be selected exactly as desired. If the same
list of channels are to be viewable in more than one Service Level then the same
channel map should be assigned to both Service Levels. Levels of service which
need to have a different list of channels must be assigned to different Channel
Maps.
The TV Representative can select what Channel Maps are associated with each
Service Level and what channels are in each Map in the Channel Setup section of
the SETUP MENU.
In addition to the 6 Channel Maps the L-10D ELF contains a Master Map. The
Master Map contains a list of all Analog and Digital TV channels which were found
when the TV is programmed (see Auto Scan on page #25). Channels can only be
added or removed from the Master Map by performing an Auto Scan. Channels
can not be added to any Channel Map unless they exist in the Master Map.
NOTE: Whenever an Auto Scan is performed the contents of the Master Map may
be changed. After an Auto Scan any channels not listed in the new Master Map
are automatically removed from all Channel Maps. If the Auto Scan found new
channel(s) which were not in the previous Master Map then the new channels will
be automatically added to all Channel Maps.
Channel maps may contain from 0 to the maximum number of channels in the
Master Map. In addition to normal TV channels the L-10D ELF has Composite
Audio/Video and PC (VGA) inputs. These inputs are only accessible inside the TV
unless the TV has been modified. The Audio/Video and PC inputs can be added
to Channel Maps.
Video channel has been assigned the arbitrary channel number of 0-1. The video
input only supports analog signals.
PC Channel has been assigned the arbitrary channel number of 0-2.
How to use Channel Maps

Owner's Manual
The infrared unit is hand held and produces an infrared beam that you cannot
see. This beam travels in a straight line, much like the light beam from a flashlight.
The infrared hand unit operates with two "AAA" cell batteries.
In some hospitals, the patient may have the option of using an infrared hand unit
that has fewer buttons than the unit used by the TV representative. With their
infrared hand unit, patients can self rent, change channels and volume levels but
they are not able to select or change the special features of the
L-10D
. The TV
representative can perform all the patients' functions and can also select and
change the special features that the
L-10D ELF
TV offers.
