Commercial Mode Overview
This document describes how to set up LX570H Pro:Centric ® TVs for Commercial Mode operation. LG
commercial TV functionality is based on “ownership” of the Channel Map; that is, the Channel Map resides
in the TV’s CPU, Protocol Translator Card (PTC), or the embedded b-LAN™ (EBL) module, or it resides
externally from the TV (i.e., in a device from the solution provider).
These TV models are capable of Free-To-Guest (FTG) Mode operation via the TV CPU. Alternatively, the
EBL module can be configured either for Pass-through Mode (default) or FTG Mode. When neither the CPU
nor EBL is in FTG Mode, these TV models also allow external control via the TV’s MPI port.
Setup Checklist
Note: This document provides information specific to Commercial Mode operation. Refer to the Owner’s
Manual for information on TV installation and hardware and cable connections.
Installation
__ Unpack TV and all accessories.
__ Install batteries in the Installer Remote.
__ Install TV on VESA mount or stand.
Note: It may be advisable to make all cable
connections before installing on VESA mount
or stand, as appropriate.
Hardware Connections
__ Install any additional hardware as
appropriate to your institution, LAN, etc.
Cable Connections
__ Make all rear jack panel connections, as
appropriate.
Commercial Mode Setup
__ Complete appropriate procedures as described
in this document for Commercial Mode operation.
Pass-through Mode
This mode allows you to configure individual TVs for Pro:Centric and/or FTG Mode via CPU operation.
This mode also allows external control via the GAME CONTROL/MPI port on the TV rear jack panel.
There are two methods for configuring individual TVs that are currently in Pass-through Mode: either
using the EZ-Manager Wizard or the Custom Master TV Setup procedure as described in this document.
EZ-Manager Wizard
When the TV is in a factory default state, the EZ-Manager Wizard provides automated or manual options
for conguring essential items for Pro:Centric operation and also provides an option for using a USB
memory device to congure the TV. Use the Installer Remote to make selections and complete each step.
See “EZ-Manager Wizard” on pages 12 to 18 for detailed information.
Custom Master TV Setup
The Custom Master TV Setup procedure enables you to create a customized Master TV Setup for
Pass-through Mode or FTG Mode via CPU configuration purposes. Use the Installer Remote to congure
Installer Menu items as required for TV operation and set up TV features (Channel, Picture, Audio, etc.).
See “Custom Master TV Setup” on pages 32 to 34 for detailed information.

206-4278
Commercial Mode Overview (Cont.)
Installer Menu
To create a Master TV Setup, you will need to know how to
access the commercial controller (PTC) Installer Menu and
make changes to the default values as required. If necessary,
familiarize yourself with the Installer Menu and how to make
and save changes. Refer to pages 22 to 31 for information on
accessing the Installer Menu and for detailed descriptions of
the Installer Menu items.
TV Setup Menus
On-screen setup menus control the features of the TV. Use the
Installer Remote to access the TV setup menus, and set the TV
features to the desired configuration for the end user.
Cloning
Cloning refers to the process of using a Master TV Setup to
configure a Target TV. The Master TV’s clonable setup menu
features should be configured as part of the Master TV Setup.
If there are features in the Master TV’s setup—channel icons
or labels, digital font options, etc.—that are not set or that are
set incorrectly, those features also will not be set or will be set
incorrectly in the Target TVs. Refer to pages 35 to 38 for
detailed information on cloning requirements and procedures.

External MPI Control
To control the TV using an external MPI control device, you must
use the TV’s GAME CONTROL/MPI port for communication
purposes. In these TVs, Installer Menu item 118 POWER
SAVINGS controls the power circuitry for both the embedded
b-LAN module and the GAME CONTROL/MPI port; therefore, to
ensure that the GAME CONTROL/MPI port circuitry is powered,
thus enabling MPI communication, Installer Menu item 118
POWER SAVINGS must be set appropriately. See Installer Menu
item descriptions as well as Reference section, “b-LAN Setup &
Overview,” for further information.
Note: These TV models are not equipped with MPI card slots.
FTG Mode
In this mode, an FTG Channel Map enables the decryption of each Pro:Idiom ®
encrypted channel. The FTG Channel Map also provides logical channel mapping
of physical RF channels (analog and digital) and Aux inputs. The method for
creating the FTG Channel Map is ultimately determined by which element of the
TV will “own” the FTG Channel Map—the CPU or the EBL.
For these TV models, there are two FTG Modes—FTG Mode via CPU and FTG
Mode via EBL—which are separate and distinct FTG Modes of operation, each
with its own unique advantages and requirements, as outlined on the following
page.
TV Setup Menus

Commercial Mode Overview (Cont.)
When the TV CPU is configured with an FTG Channel Map, the CPU controls and restricts the tuning
operation of the TV, and when the EBL is configured with an FTG Channel Map, the EBL controls and
restricts the tuning operation of the TV. In these models, FTG Mode via CPU also provides the option to
select either logical or physical tuning (see note below) during configuration. You must determine which
element of the TV will own the FTG Channel Map before you can begin configuration.
Note: Logical channel mapping of physical RF channels eliminates dash tuning; for example, physical
19-3 can be mapped to logical channel 9. It also allows physical RF channels and Aux inputs to be listed
in any order, not only in physical numeric ascending order. Physical channel tuning requires that you
include the dash when direct entering RF channel numbers and Aux inputs (the latter designated by 130-0
through 137-0).
FTG Mode via CPU
This mode provides the following features:
• Logical or physical tuning of physical RF channels and
Aux inputs.
• Mapping of RF channels with minor (program) numbers
up to 999.
• FTG Channel Map of up to 600 channels.
• Start Channel set for RF or Aux input delivered content.
• Pro:Centric data delivery over RF or IP.
• TV Zoning option for location-specic conguration.
LG’s FTG File Manager PC software enables you to
create an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le, which may be used
to congure the CPU for FTG Mode. You can also create a
Clone (.tlx) le from a Master TV Setup that may be used
to congure the CPU for FTG Mode. In this mode, the
CPU is the owner of the FTG Channel Map and must be
congured with an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer
Menu settings using one of the following processes:
• Local: Congure an individual LX570H TV via its USB
port using a USB memory device / “.tlx” le. The le
may be either a Clone le (see “Cloning Procedures” on
pages 35 to 38) or an FTG Conguration le (see “FTG
File Manager Utilities Overview” on pages 39 to 44).
• Remote: Congure all LX570H TVs at the site using
a Pro:Centric server head end device (Example:
PCS200R). Refer to the Pro:Centric Server Admin
Client User Guide for further information.
FTG Mode via EBL
This mode provides the following features:
• Logical tuning of physical RF channels and Aux inputs.
• Mapping of RF channels with 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.
LG’s FTG Device Conguration Application PC software
is required to congure the EBL. In this mode, the EBL
is the owner of the FTG Channel Map and must be
congured with an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer
Menu settings using one of the following processes:
• Local: Congure an individual LX570H TV’s EBL
via its TV-LINK CFG jack using a direct PC-to-TV
(EBL) connection and the FTG Device Conguration
Application. See Reference section, “FTG Mode via
EBL (Local Conguration),” for information on the
“Write” process for an FTG Channel Map and FTG
Installer Menu settings.
• Remote: Congure all LX570H 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 &
Conguration Guide for the FMA device for further
information.

206-4278
Commercial Mode Overview (Cont.)
While the TV 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.
• FTG Mode via CPU conguration changes must be made using a “.tlx” le (typically edited in the FTG
File Manager), while FTG Mode via EBL conguration changes must be made using the FTG Device
Conguration Application. FTG Channel Map Conguration and FTG Installer Menu Conguration utilities
in both PC applications enable you to make changes, respectively, to the FTG Channel Map and FTG
Installer Menu settings as necessary. Based on the initial method used to congure the TV for FTG Mode
operation (via CPU or EBL), all subsequent changes must be transferred to either the TV CPU or the EBL
via a process that is in accordance or compatible with that method (see information on local conguration
in this document or refer to documentation for the head end device/server for information on remote
management).
• If it becomes necessary to restore the TV to Pass-through Mode, there are several options that will enable
you to do so. See Reference section, “Restoring Factory Defaults on the TV(s),” for further information.
Pages 39 to 44 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. Refer to the
Free-To-Guest (FTG) Device Configuration Application User Guide for information on the FTG Device
Configuration Application.
Remote Management in FTG Mode
When the TV is configured for FTG Mode via CPU, remote management of the FTG Channel Map and FTG
Installer Menu settings is provided by a Pro:Centric server, via a Clone/Conguration (.tlx) file loaded on the
Pro:Centric server Admin Client. Refer to the Pro:Centric Server Admin Client User Guide for further
information.
When the TV is configured for FTG Mode via EBL, the b-LAN module, which is internal to the TV, allows
hotel/institution head end equipment (for example, an FMA-LG101) with b-LAN technology to provide remote
management of the FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings. See Reference section, “b-LAN
Setup & Overview,” for further information.
Determining the TV Operating Mode
To determine the operating mode of the TV, press MENU SETTINGS on the Installer Remote. The menu
displayed depends on the operating mode. If the Function Menu (see example below) appears, the TV is in
a mode (FTG, PPV, etc.) that does not allow the end user to change the fundamental TV setup. If the TV
setup menus (see example on page 7) appear, the TV is in Pass-through Mode.

Refer to “EZ-Manager Wizard” on pages 12 to 18 for further information on the EZ-Manager Wizard options.
Note: If Pro:Centric data delivery will be over IP and there is a DNS server at the site, you can create
a DNS entry “procentric.local” for the Pro:Centric server that will enable automated Pro:Centric IP
conguration via the EZ-Manager. If there is no DNS entry for procentric.local, you will need to manually
enter the Pro:Centric server IP address and port number during conguration.
TV in Pass-through Mode
If the TV is in Pass-through Mode, either:
• Set Installer Menu items 098 PRO:CENTRIC and 119 DATA CHANNEL to the appropriate values.
See Installer Menu information on pages 22 to 31 for further details. Also, as necessary, refer to “Custom
Master TV Setup” on pages 32 to 34 and/or cloning information on pages 35 to 38.
• Congure the appropriate Pro:Centric server settings in the IP Environment / Pro:Centric Menu. You
must use this option, in particular, if you wish to congure IP settings for the Pro:Centric server. See
“Accessing the IP Environment Menu” on page 45 and “Pro:Centric Setup” on pages 47 to 48 for further
information.
Note: When the TV is in either Pass-through Mode or FTG Mode via CPU, you can also leave Installer
Menu item 119 DATA CHANNEL set to its default value (255) to enable the TV’s Data Channel Auto Search
feature to set the DATA CHANNEL value. See item 119 description on page 31 for additional information.
TV in FTG Mode
If the TV is in FTG Mode (via CPU or EBL), use the appropriate FTG application software to update Installer
Menu items #98 Pro:Centric and #119 Data Channel (along with their afliated elds). Then, transfer the
FTG Installer Menu settings to the TV in accordance with the FTG Mode of conguration. Refer to the FTG
Mode overview on pages 7 to 9 for further information on FTG Mode operation and conguration. Also—for
FTG Mode via CPU only—see note above regarding the option to use the TV’s Data Channel Auto Search
feature to set the DATA CHANNEL value.

EZ-Manager Wizard
The primary purpose of the EZ-Manager Wizard is to guide you through the process (automated or
manual) of configuring the essential Installer Menu items for Pro:Centric operation. The wizard will
appear on the screen each time the TV is turned ON, until one of its configuration methods has
been completed or the wizard is exited. Use the Installer Remote to make selections and complete
each wizard step.
While the EZ-Manager Wizard is intended primarily for Pro:Centric-related conguration, the
wizard also offers Zoning as well as USB conguration options.
• LX570H TVs support the TV Zoning feature, which enables location-specic settings (see
Reference section, “Using the TV Zoning Feature,” for further information). The EZ-Manager
Wizard enables you to set the TV Zone # in the TV as part of the conguration process.
• The EZ-Manager Wizard also enables you to redirect to the TV’s standard TV Manager / USB
Download Menu as part of the conguration process, if desired, to perform USB conguration
and/or update functions.
Caution: Do NOT unplug the TV power cord or remove the antenna cable or, if
applicable, the LAN cable during the conguration process, as doing so will interrupt
the current step and may corrupt the conguration data.
Before You Begin
• If you plan to create a Master TV Setup using the procedure described on pages 32 to 34, be sure
to exit the EZ-Manager Wizard in order to avoid setting modes that may restrict the custom setup
procedure. See also “Initiate Conguration or Exit the EZ-Manager Wizard” below.
• If it has been completed or exited and therefore does not display, the EZ-Manager Wizard can
be reactivated; however, this requires that you restore the TV to a factory default condition. See
Reference section, “Restoring Factory Defaults on the TV(s),” for further information.
• Each wizard step is allotted a time frame after which the wizard proceeds without user interaction.
If the Pro:Centric server is congured on the system and if no location-specic settings are
required in the TV, for example, TV Zone, Label, and/or Room Number settings, you can simply
turn ON the TV, and once initiated, the wizard will proceed through each of the conguration steps
with no further user interaction.
• If any of the conguration steps fails, you will see a “Diagnostics” screen with an indication of the
failure. You will then have the opportunity to reinitiate the conguration process from the previous
screen or exit the EZ-Manager Wizard.

folder and the Clone/Conguration (TLX) les stored in the root directory
on the USB device.
Note: Press on the Installer Remote, as necessary, to exit the Ez
Download utility and/or the TV Manager / USB Download Menu. If you
accessed the TV Manager via the EZ-Manager Wizard, you will be
returned to the last screen on display before you selected the “USB
Conguration” option. If you accessed the TV Manager via the TV
menus, you will be returned to program viewing.
7. To select or de-select a le, respectively, use the Up/Down arrows on
the Installer Remote to highlight the lename, and press OK to add or
remove the checkmark at the left of the lename.
Note: The utility will only allow you to select one of each le type for
downloading. For example, if there are two TLX les in the Ez Download
list, you can only select one or the other of those two les.
Note: After the Ez Download utility is run, a le is automatically created
and stored on the USB device that was used. The le, which will have
a “.dzm” extension, maintains a history of the le(s) previously used
with the Ez Download utility. The next time(s) you use this USB device
with the Ez Download utility, the le(s) selected for the last download
will be pre-selected for the current download.
8. The elds at the right of the screen will change depending on the
currently highlighted le. Select the appropriate option(s) for each le,
as applicable.

(Continued from previous page)
• For software and splash screen image les: The elds at the right of the screen show the TV
software versions and any available Forced Update options. Do not select any Forced Update
options unless you have been specically instructed to do so or have previous experience with
Expert Software Updates.
• For TLX les: If an FTG Channel Map is included in the selected Clone/Conguration (.tlx)
le, a Channel Tuning / Channel Banner Display eld at the right of the screen enables you
to choose the format for the channel tuning/banner display. Press the green button on
the Installer Remote to select Logical tuning, or press the yellow button on the Installer
Remote to select Physical tuning. A checkmark will appear at the left of the selected option.
Logical tuning is selected by default.
Note: If the selected TLX le does not include an FTG Channel Map, the message, “No
Channel Map in TLX le,” will be displayed at the right of the screen.
9. When you are ready to continue, use the arrow keys on the Installer Remote to select Apply,
and then press OK.
Update progress will be shown in a new window. Do NOT remove the USB device while
updates are in progress. When the Ez Download process is complete, the TV will briey
display an overview of the results and then either return to program viewing or reboot (the
latter if software has just been updated).
10. Remove the USB memory device, and verify that the appropriate configuration/update(s) is/are
resident on the TV.
Note for TLX configuration: When conguration is complete, the TV tunes according to the
Start Channel setting in the Installer Menu. If a Start Channel is specied, the TV will tune to that
channel, though in the case of FTG Mode via CPU conguration, a channel banner will only be
displayed if the Start Channel is included in the FTG Channel Map (depending on your selection
in step 8, the channel banner will display either the Start Channel’s logical channel number or
physical RF channel number). Otherwise, the TV will either return to the last channel tuned (TV
in Pass-through Mode) or tune to the rst channel in the FTG Channel Map (TV in FTG Mode via
CPU). In the latter case, remember that the channels in the FTG Channel Map are always
arranged in logical order, regardless of your selection in step 8.

Installer Menu
Use the Installer Menu to set up, change, or view operational settings. This section describes how
to access, use, and exit the Installer Menu from the TV itself. However, you should also refer to
the Installer Menu descriptions in this document if you are conguring the TV CPU using an FTG
Conguration (.tlx) le created using LG’s FTG File Manager software or conguring the EBL locally
(.rml) or remotely (via FMA-LG101 / .fma) using the FTG Device Conguration Application software.
Refer to the table on pages 24 and 25 for brief descriptions of Installer Menu items. More detailed
descriptions follow the table listing.
Accessing the Installer Menu
1. Turn ON the TV.
If the EZ-Manager Wizard appears on the screen when you turn ON the TV, exit the wizard.
2. Using an Installer Remote, press MENU SETTINGS repeatedly until the on-screen display of
the TV setup menus (if the TV is in Pass-through Mode) or the Function Menu (if the TV is not
in Pass-through Mode) no longer toggles, and then press the Installer Menu entry sequence
(e.g., 9-8-7-6) + OK to access the Installer Menu.
Note: The default Installer Menu entry sequence is “9876”; however, if Installer Menu item 000
INSTALLER SEQUENCE has been modied, the entry sequence may be one of three additional
options. See Installer Menu detailed descriptions for further information.

Using the Installer Menu
Refer to the table starting on the next page for an overview of the available Installer Menu items,
including their item numbers, functions, value ranges, and default values.
Installer Menu items not relevant to these TV models are not present in the Installer Menu; therefore,
some numbers are missing. For example, item 006 will not appear. In addition, items that are
dependent on other Installer Menu item settings will not be initially accessible. For example, item 046
STRT AUX SRCE will not display in the Installer Menu unless item 004 STRT CHANNEL is set to 0.
See Installer Menu detailed descriptions for further information.
Navigation within the Installer Menu
Use the Up/Down arrow keys on the Installer Remote to sequence through the available menu items,
or access an item directly by keying in the item number and then pressing MENU SETTINGS. For
example, to access the SLEEP TIMER option, which is item 015, press 0-1-5 + MENU SETTINGS.
Changing Installer Menu Settings
To change an Installer Menu item value, use the Left/Right arrow keys on the Installer Remote, or
enter a valid value directly. To save the new setting, press OK, or use the Up/Down arrow keys to
navigate to a new Installer Menu item if you have additional items to edit. Note that invalid values will
not be saved.
Exiting the Installer Menu and Activating Settings
After you have adjusted all required Installer Menu item settings, press OK once on the Installer
Remote to save your changes; then, press OK again to exit the Installer Menu. Any changes you
make will be stored in non-volatile memory.
Note: Each time you exit the Installer Menu in Pass-through Mode, all V-Chip (Parental Control)
settings in the TV are reset to their default values; that is, the Lock System, if previously enabled
from the Lock setup menu, will now be disabled, and the individual Parental Control settings will be
restored to default values.

Detailed Descriptions of Installer Menu Items
000 - INSTALLER SEQUENCE
Species entry sequence to the Installer Menu.
0 = 9876 1 = 4321
2 = 1478 3 = 3698
001 - POWER MANAGE (Power Management)
Energy saving feature. Determines the number of hours, in the
range 1 to 7, of inactivity allowed, either at the TV control panel
or from the remote, before the TV automatically turns itself OFF. If
set to 0, Power Management is disabled.
002 - AC ON (AC Power Switchable)
If set to 1, this allows the TV to turn ON when AC power is
applied. Pressing the POWER button is not necessary. This is
desirable if the TV is plugged into a switched AC outlet (i.e., a
set-top box). Set to 2 or 3 to enable the Instant ON feature (see
additional information below). Set to 0 (default) for standard TV
turn ON/OFF operation.
The Instant ON feature allows the TV to turn ON when AC power
is applied, but with video and audio muted (Muted ON). The TV
retains its ON status while appearing to be OFF. Pressing the
POWER button toggles Off/On the video and audio mutes, so that
the TV appears to turn ON instantly.
• If this item is set to 2, the TV will reboot and, if applicable (i.e.,
item 119 DATA CHANNEL set from 1 to 135 or 253), check for
and download any available updates from the Pro:Centric server
at every turn OFF. This setting is not recommended if the TV will
be congured with a resident application.
• If this item is set to 3, the TV will not reboot to check for and
download updates at turn OFF, with the following exception:
the rst time the TV is turned OFF after this item is set to 3, the
TV will reboot and initiate an update event (Data Channel Auto
Search and/or check for and download of updates—see also
paragraph below). This setting is recommended if the TV will be
congured with a resident application. In this mode, the standard
check for and download of updates is under application control.
Refer to your site-specic documentation for further information
on conguring the TV with a resident application.
When this item is set to 2 or 3, the TV also will reboot and initiate
an update event once every 24 hours. During the update event,
the TV, as applicable, performs a Data Channel Auto Search (item
119 set to 255) and/or checks for and downloads any available
updates from the Pro:Centric server (item 119 DATA CHANNEL
set from 1 to 135 or 253). The time at which this event occurs
depends on the setting of item 121 UPDATE TIME HR. See item
119 and 121 descriptions for further information. Once the update
cycle is complete, the TV completes the reboot and resumes its
Muted ON state.
Note: If set to 1, the TV does not respond to ON/OFF commands
from either the remote or the display panel, and the SLEEP TIMER
is also nonfunctional.
003 - BAND/AFC (Band/Automatic Frequency Control)
There are four possible settings for this option:
0 = Broadcast 1 = CATV (default)
2 = HRC 3 = IRC
If some channels were not found by Auto Tuning (Channel
Search), select the appropriate Band setting here, and add the
channels using the Channel Edit option in the Channel Menu.
004 - STRT CHANNEL (Start Channel)
If active, this function allows you to determine the initial Major
Start Channel number when the TV is turned ON. This feature is
useful for an in-house information channel, since the TV would
always select that channel when it is turned ON. If set to 255,
the last channel tuned before the TV was turned OFF will be the
channel tuned when the TV is turned ON again.
0 = Aux 127 = Map to Major CH 4
1 ~ 125 = Major CH # 255 = Last Channel
126 = Map to Major CH 3
Note: For a digital Start Channel, always remember to set item
104 to the Minor Start Channel number.
Note: 126 and 127 are mapped only in SONIFI PPV Mode.
005 - CHAN LOCK (Channel Lock)
Channel Lock is ideal if the system must always be on the same
channel. Changing channels with the Channel Up/Down or keypad
numbers is impossible. Channel Lock is inactive if set to 0 (default).
Generally, this feature is used in connection with item 004 STRT
CHANNEL where the Start Channel may, for example, be set to
3 or 4. If the Start Channel is 3, then the TV will remain locked on
channel 3.
NOTE: For items 007, 008, and 009
For legacy reasons, the scale used is 0 – 63. The PTC software
will translate this to the 0 – 100 scale used by the TV.
To translate a TV volume level to the Installer Menu value, use
the following formula:
Installer Value = TV Value x 63
100
Enter only the whole number (disregard fractions).
007 - STRT VOLUME (Start Volume)
This function allows the Installer to determine the initial volume
level setting when the TV is turned ON. This feature is useful for
an in-house information channel, since the TV will always select
that volume level when it is turned ON. The range of values is 0
to 63, 255. If set to 255, the last volume level before the TV was
turned OFF will be the current volume level when the TV is turned
ON again.
26
206-4278
Installer Menu (Cont.)
008 - MIN VOLUME (Minimum Volume)
This function determines the minimum volume level allowable
with the Volume (VOL) Up/Down control. In this way, for example,
someone cannot set the volume too low to hear. The value range
is from 0 to 63. The factory default is 0, which provides the full
range of volume control, if item 009 MAX VOLUME is set to 63. It
is recommended to set the same value on every TV.
Note: The minimum volume level cannot have a value setting
higher than the maximum volume level (described below).
009 - MAX VOLUME (Maximum Volume)
This function determines the maximum volume level allowable with
the Volume (VOL) Up/Down control. In this way, for example, someone cannot set the volume level high enough to disturb others. The
value range is 0 to 63, with 63 as the default, which gives the user
the full range of volume control, if item 008 MIN VOLUME is set to
0. It is recommended to set the same value on every TV.
Note: The maximum volume level cannot have a value setting
lower than the minimum volume level (described above).
010 - MUTE DISABLE
Enables or disables sound mute function. If set to 1, sound cannot
be muted. If set to 0, sound can be muted.
011 - KEY DEFEAT
If set to 1, Key Defeat is enabled, which means that end users
cannot access or navigate within the on-screen menu(s) from the
display panel; i.e., joystick button menu navigation functions will
not be available. Set to 0 to disable Key Defeat. Note that all IR
features remain functional regardless of this setting; users can
always access the TV menus by pressing MENU SETTINGS on
the remote.
015 - SLEEP TIMER
If set to 1, the Sleep Timer feature may be used. If set to 0, the
Sleep Timer is not available.
016 - EN. TIMER (Enable On/Off Timers)
If set to 1, the Timer function is available to the end user and
enabled continuously. Set to 0 to disable On/Off timers.
Note: The TV clock must be set in order for timers to be used.
Values IR Mode Bed #
0 Disabled N/A
16 – 24 Multi-code Remote 1 – 9
Note: For further information, see documentation for the accessory
package that includes the multi-code remote.
021 - V-CHIP (Parental Control)
Set to 1 to activate V-Chip (Parental Control) and have it available
to the end user to lter and control or otherwise restrict programming content that can appear. Set to 0 to turn the V-Chip feature
Off (not available to user); no programming restrictions can be set.
022 - MAX BLK HRS (Maximum Block Hours)
Sets hours from 0 to 99 for the maximum V-Chip (Parental Control)
block hours. Default setting is for 12 blocking hours.
Note: This item is not available in the Installer Menu when item 021
V-CHIP is set to 0 or when item 084 PERMANENT BLK is set to 1.
023 - CAPTION LOCK
If set to 0, captions are OFF when the TV is turned ON. Set to 1 to
use the caption setting congured before the TV was turned OFF
when the TV is turned ON.
028 - CH. OVERIDE (Channel Override)
Applicable for Pass-through Mode only. If set to 1, users can select
channels either with Channel Up/Down or by direct keypad entry.
This setting also allows full access to channel settings in the TV
setup menus (i.e., channels may be added or removed from the
channel lineup, channel labels and icons may be edited, etc.).
If set to 0, the channel lineup is locked. That is, user access to
channel settings in the TV setup menus is restricted, and users
can only tune to the channels that are included in the channel
lineup. Also, in this case, users can only select channels using
Channel Up/Down; direct keypad entry is not available.
029 - OLD OCV (On Command Video™)
Set to 1 to remap the PTC’s direct tune channels for Aux inputs
from 13x to 9x. This allows 2-digit only tuning systems (i.e., legacy
OCV) to direct tune Aux inputs. See also Reference section, “TV
Aux Input Conguration.”
017 - ALARM
Gives the installer the option of making the Alarm function available
to the end user. If set to 1, the Alarm function is available to the end
user. Set to 0 to disable the Alarm function.
Note: The TV clock must be set before the Alarm function will work.
020 - FEATURE LEVEL
Determines an additional IR code scheme to which the TV will
respond, allowing for the use of unique IR codes based on “bed
number” in a multi-TV single room installation. First determine the
IR mode; then select the bed number.

119 - DATA CHANNEL
Set to 0 to disable. Set from 1 to 135 to match the RF channel
number that will be used by the Pro:Centric server as its data
channel. *
For TVs in Pass-through Mode or FTG Mode via CPU, if this item
is left at its default value (255), the TV’s Data Channel Auto Search
feature will be enabled (see additional information below).
Note: The Data Channel Auto Search feature is not available
when the TV’s EBL is in FTG Mode. If the DATA CHANNEL value
is 255 when the TV is congured for FTG Mode via EBL, DATA
CHANNEL is defaulted to 0.
Data Channel Auto Search feature: When this item is set to 255
(default), once every 24 hours, the TV will initiate a search of 10
predened channels (10, 20, 30, ... 100) and then, if necessary,
perform a complete search of the RF channels (1 to 135) in an
attempt to nd the RF channel used by the Pro:Centric server as
its data channel. If the Pro:Centric RF channel is found, the DATA
CHANNEL value will be changed from 255 to match the server’s
RF channel number. The time at which the Auto Search occurs
depends on the setting of item 121 P:C RF WAKE HR. See item
121 description for further information.
Note: Pro:Centric application updates are downloaded from the
Pro:Centric server to the TV when the TV is turned ON; however,
TV E-Z Installation updates are downloaded to the TV when the TV
is turned OFF. While E-Z Installation updates are in progress, it is
not possible to turn ON the TV.
Note: The Data Channel is automatically set to “253” if Media
Type is set to “IP” either in the EZ-Manager Wizard or in the IP
Environment / Pro:Centric Menu on the TV (see “EZ-Manager
Wizard” on pages 12 to 18 or “Pro:Centric Setup” on pages 47
to 48, respectively) or if Installer Menu item #119 Data Channel
is set to “IP Address” in the FTG File Manager, which is used to
congure TV CPUs for FTG Mode operation. It is not possible to
change the value to “253” directly in the Installer Menu.
Under standard TV OFF/ON operating conditions (i.e., item 002 AC
ON is set to 0), a Wake For Update event occurs when the TV is
OFF and causes the TV’s CPU to temporarily turn ON, perform the
update cycle, and then turn back OFF, all while the TV appears to
be OFF. If item 002 AC ON is set to 2 or 3 for Instant ON, then the
TV’s CPU is always ON and Wake For Update occurs when the TV
is in its Muted ON state (i.e., the TV only appears to be OFF). The
Wake For Update event causes the TV’s CPU to reboot in order
to perform the update cycle and then return to its Muted ON state.
See also description for item 002.
If this item is set to 128 (OFF), the time at which a Data Channel
Auto Search (item 119 set to 255) and/or an Instant ON update
(item 002 set to 2 or 3) occurs is determined as follows: The TV
initiates the search and/or checks for updates at 2:00 AM (if the
TV clock is set) or after two hours of elapsed time from when AC
power was applied (if the TV clock is not set). If the TV display
is ON when a Wake For Update event is to occur, the update will
take place the next time the TV is turned OFF.
Note: This item is not available in the Installer Menu when item
119 DATA CHANNEL is set to 0, except when item 002 AC ON is
set to 2 or 3 for Instant ON.
Note: The TV clock must be set in order for a Wake For Update
event to occur at the precise time of day in accordance with item
121 and item 122 settings.
122 - UPDATE TIME MN
Set the Wake For Update minute from 0 to 59. See also description
for item 121 UPDATE TIME HR above.
Note: This item is not available in the Installer Menu unless item
121 UPDATE TIME HR is set from 0 to 23.
Note: The TV clock must be set in order for a Wake For Update
event to occur at the precise time of day in accordance with item
121 and item 122 settings.
121 - UPDATE TIME HR
Based on the settings of this item and item 122 UPDATE TIME MN,
the Wake For Update feature wakes the TV once daily to check for
and, if applicable, download updates from the Pro:Centric server.
Set the Wake For Update hour from 0 to 23. This item uses the
24-hour clock format. The value “128” (default) is displayed as
“OFF.” Directly entering 128 resets the default value (OFF) for this
item, though note that this setting does not mean the TV will not
initiate update events—see additional information below.
* PCS150R and later Pro:Centric servers do not support HRC or IRC cable channel frequencies.

Custom Master TV Setup
This section describes how to create a customized Master TV Setup for cloning purposes when
the TV is in Pass-through Mode. All cloning (export and import) processes on the TV are performed
via USB memory device / “.tlx” le. The Master TV Setup may be exported to a Clone (.tlx) file,
which can then be used (i.e., imported) to configure either TVs that are to remain in Pass-through
Mode or TVs that are to be configured for FTG Mode via CPU.
Cloning requirements and procedures are described in detail on pages 35 to 38.
Note: You can also use the FTG File Manager to create an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le for FTG
Mode via CPU conguration, if desired (see pages 39 to 40). However, it is not possible to
customize TV setup menu settings in the FTG File Manager. If you wish to include customized TV
setup menu settings in the TV conguration, in addition to the channel lineup and Installer Menu
settings, perform the Master TV Setup procedure to create a Clone (.tlx) conguration le.
Before You Begin
• It is recommended that you disconnect all Aux inputs if you intend to run Auto Tuning (Channel
Search). Under certain conditions, Auto Tuning is disabled if there is an Aux input active.
• A Clone (.tlx) le comprises Installer Menu settings, IP Environment Menu settings (with the
exception of Network Connection settings), and all TV sources’ (analog, digital, AV1, HDMI, etc.)
clonable setup menu settings. See also “Clonable TV Setup Menu Features” list below.
• If the “.tlx” le (either a Clone or FTG Conguration le) to be imported on the Target TV(s)
contains an FTG Channel Map, the Target TV(s) will be congured for FTG Mode via CPU,
though as part of the import process, you will have the option to select either logical or physical
channel tuning. If you would like the Target TV(s) to remain in Pass-through Mode, the “.tlx” le
should not include an FTG Channel Map.

Custom Master TV Setup (Cont.)
Custom Master TV Setup Procedure
1. Turn ON the TV.
The next step depends on whether the EZ-Manager Wizard appears
on the screen when you turn ON the TV:
• If the wizard is displayed, the TV is in the required factory default state.
Exit the wizard, and then continue with step 2.
• If the wizard is not displayed, restore the TV to a factory default
condition before continuing with this procedure. See Reference
section, “Restoring Factory Defaults on the TV(s),” as necessary,
for further information.
2. Set Installer Menu items.
This step provides specic instruction only on the Installer Menu items
that should be set on a Master TV. Refer to pages 22 to 31 for detailed
information on all Installer Menu items.
a) Use the Installer Remote to access the PTC Installer Menu (see
“Accessing the Installer Menu” on page 22 for further information).
b) Set Installer Menu item 003 BAND/AFC, as appropriate.
• Broadcast: Set to 0. • HRC: Set to 2.
• CATV: Set to 1 (default). • IRC: Set to 3.
c) Set any other Installer Menu items that affect your TV programming
network to the required conguration. For example, enable/disable
Aux inputs, set a Start Channel, etc.
d) After you have adjusted all Installer Menu item settings as required,
and if you do not need to congure any IP Environment settings (see
note below), press OK once on the Installer Remote to save your
changes; then, press OK again to exit the menu.
Note: If you intend to congure settings in the IP Environment Menu,
which is accessible from the Installer Menu, you can proceed directly
to step 3. All Installer Menu settings will be saved automatically when
you access the IP Environment Menu.
3. Congure IP Environment settings.
Note: You cannot return directly to the Installer Menu from the IP
Environment Menu; thus, you may wish to set all Installer Menu items
as needed before you access the IP Environment Menu. Otherwise,
you will need to reaccess the Installer Menu to set additional items.
Navigate to Installer Menu item 119 DATA CHANNEL, and press
2-5-3 + MENU SETTINGS to launch the IP Environment Menu. Then,
complete network conguration as required. See “IP Environment
Setup” on pages 45 to 48 for further information.

4. Set up TV features.
On-screen setup menus control the features of the TV. Press MENU
SETTINGS on the Installer Remote to access the TV setup menus,
and then set Channel, Picture, Audio, Time, etc. options to the
desired configurations. See “Clonable TV Setup Menu Features” list
on page 32 and also notes below.
Note: If you intend to use the TV Zoning feature, make sure to
assign the appropriate TV Zone # at this time as described in
Reference section, “Using the TV Zoning Feature.”
Note: If desired and if appropriate, you can run Auto Tuning (see
step 5) prior to completing this step.
5. (Optional) Run Auto Tuning.
If you are creating a Master TV Setup for cloning purposes and you
want the Target TV(s) to remain in Pass-through Mode, do NOT run
Auto Tuning. If you export a Master TV Setup that includes an autotuned/edited channel lineup, thereby creating a Clone (.tlx) file with
an FTG Channel Map, and then import the Clone file on a Target TV,
this will put the Target TV in FTG Mode via CPU.
Note: When you import a Clone/Configuration (.tlx) file that contains
an FTG Channel Map on a Target TV (for FTG Mode via CPU
configuration), you will have the option to select either logical or
physical channel tuning. For either selection, the channel sequence
will be based on the order in which the channels appear in FTG
Channel Map. You can view and/or edit the channel sequence in
the FTG File Manager, as required.
a) Use the Installer Remote to access the Channel Menu. Then,
select Auto Tuning and follow the on-screen instructions to
search for all available analog and digital channels.
b) Use the Channel Edit option in the Channel Menu to edit the
channel lineup, as necessary. Add/delete channels per your
system requirements.
6. Verify the TV setup.
Make sure the TV features are set per your requirements. Also, if
applicable, verify that the channel lineup is correct.
The Master TV Setup is now ready to be saved (exported) to a USB
memory device. See “Cloning Procedures” on pages 35 to 38.

Cloning typically refers to the process of using a Master TV Setup to configure a
Target TV. This section describes how to save (export) a Master TV Setup and then
transfer (import) it to a Target TV using a USB memory device / Clone (.tlx) le.
You can also create an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le using the FTG File Manager and
then use the Import Clone File procedure to transfer the conguration to Target TVs.
Refer to “Creating an FTG Conguration File” on pages 39 to 40, as necessary.
Exporting a Clone File
This section describes how to export Master TV Setup conguration to a
USB memory device / Clone (.tlx) le.
Before You Begin
• Ensure the USB device has been formatted with FAT format.
• If the TV is NOT already in FTG Mode via CPU, complete the Custom
Master TV Setup procedure (see pages 32 to 34).
• If you would like the Target TV(s) to remain in Pass-through Mode after the
Clone le is imported, ensure the Master TV does not have an auto-tuned/
edited channel lineup; otherwise, importing the exported le will result in the
Target TV(s) being congured for FTG Mode via CPU.
• If you intend to use the TV Zoning feature, make sure to assign the
appropriate TV Zone # as described in Reference section, “Using the TV
Zoning Feature,” BEFORE performing the procedure below.
• It is not possible to clone a Master TV’s clock. Either set a Target TV’s
clock manually, or use the Auto Clock setting in the TV setup menus.
• Since the Export Clone File process retrieves the channel lineup from
the CPU, if the TV is currently in FTG Mode via EBL (FTG Channel Map
resides in EBL) it is not possible to export an FTG Channel Map.
Caution: Do not unplug the TV power cord or remove the USB
memory device while exporting is in progress, as doing so may
cause the TV to malfunction or harm the USB device, respectively.
Export Clone File Procedure
1. Ensure the Master TV is set up completely and turned ON.
2. Insert the USB memory device into the USB port on the Master TV.
3. Press MENU SETTINGS on the Installer Remote to display the TV
setup menus (TV is in Pass-through Mode) or the Function Menu (TV is
already in FTG Mode).
4. Use the arrow navigation keys to select/highlight either the Option menu
icon from the TV setup menus or the Lock menu icon from the Function
Menu. Then, press the number “7” key a total of seven times to display the
TV Manager / USB Download Menu.

Export progress will be shown in a new window. Do NOT remove the USB device while exporting
is in progress. When the export process is complete, the TV Manager / USB Download menu
will reappear on the screen.
8. Press on the Installer Remote to exit the TV Manager / USB Download Menu, and remove
the USB memory device from the Master TV.
Note: If the Master TV has a channel lineup, during the export process, logical channel
numbers are automatically assigned in ascending order, starting with 0 (zero), to the
physical RF channels of the TV channel lineup to create an FTG Channel Map. See also
note below.
Note: If the exported Clone file is to be used for FTG Mode via CPU configuration (i.e.,
it contains an FTG Channel Map), it is highly recommended that you open the file in
the FTG File Manager—BEFORE transferring (importing) the file to any Target TVs—to
verify FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings. This will also enable you to
confirm channels and add channel attributes, labels, etc.
Importing a Clone File
This section describes how to transfer (import) a Clone or FTG Conguration (.tlx) le from a USB
memory device to a TV using the TV Manager / USB Download Menu “Import Clone File” option.
The “.tlx” le may be created either from a Master TV Setup that was saved (exported) from a
Master TV or in the FTG File Manager.
Before You Begin
• Ensure the USB device has been formatted with FAT format.
• Avoid using special characters, such as ?, &, @, etc., in the Clone/Conguration (.tlx) lename.
• If the EZ-Manager Wizard appears on the screen when you turn ON the Target TV, you can use
the wizard’s “USB Conguration” option to access the TV Manager / USB Download Menu and
complete the import procedure (see “TV Conguration Options” and/or “USB Conguration” on
pages 13 and 18, respectively, as necessary).
• You may also use the Ez Download utility to import the Clone/Conguration (.tlx) le. See “Ez
Download Utility” on pages 19 to 21 for further information.
• If the Target TV is currently in Pass-through Mode and you intend to use the TV Zoning feature—
i.e., the Clone/Conguration (.tlx) le you are importing contains an FTG Channel Map and/or
FTG prole(s) with TV Zone assignments—make sure to assign the appropriate TV Zone # in the
TV when directed to do so in the procedure below. See Reference section, “Using the TV Zoning
Feature,” for further information.
• If you would like the Target TV(s) to remain in Pass-through Mode after the Clone/Conguration
(.tlx) le is imported, ensure the “.tlx” le does not contain an FTG Channel Map; otherwise, the
import procedure will result in the Target TV(s) being congured for FTG Mode via CPU.

Cloning Procedures (Cont.)
(Continued from previous page)
• If a Clone (.tlx) le (exported Master TV Setup) contains an FTG Channel Map, the physical RF
channels in the FTG Channel Map have been assigned logical channel numbers (see “Exporting a
Clone File” above). When you import the Clone le with the FTG Channel Map on the Target TV(s),
you will have the option to select either logical or physical channel tuning. Even if you select
physical channel tuning, the (list of) physical RF channels in the FTG Channel Map will remain in
logical order.
• If an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le (created in the FTG File Manager) contains an FTG Channel
Map, each logical channel number in the FTG Channel Map has been assigned a physical RF
channel or an Aux input (the latter designated by 130-0 through 137-0—see also Reference
section, “TV Aux Input Conguration”).
Note: When you import the FTG Conguration le on the Target TV(s), you will have the option to
select either logical or physical channel tuning. If you select physical channel tuning, the physical
RF channels and Aux inputs in the FTG Channel Map will remain in logical order.
• If the Target TV EBL is already in FTG Mode, you cannot use this procedure to make changes
to the FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings. You must use a direct PC-to-TV
connection as described in Reference section, “FTG Mode via EBL (Local Conguration),” or an
FMA head end device to recongure the EBL.
• If the preceding condition applies, but you wish to switch the TV to FTG Mode via CPU, see Reference section, “Restoring Factory Defaults on the TV(s),” for further information before proceeding.
• If the Clone/Conguration (.tlx) le was edited/created in the FTG File Manager, it may contain
multiple zoned FTG Installer Menu proles for different TV models. Make sure it includes the
appropriate Installer Menu prole(s) for the Target TV(s) before performing the procedure below.
Caution: Do not unplug the TV power cord or remove the USB memory device while
importing is in progress, as doing so may cause the TV to malfunction or harm the
USB device, respectively.
Import Clone File Procedure
1. Turn ON the Target TV.
2. The next step depends on whether the EZ-Manager Wizard appears on the screen when you
turn ON the TV:
• If the wizard is displayed, you can complete the import procedure via the wizard, as indicated
above (see “Before You Begin”). However, to continue with this procedure and access the
“Import Clone File” option from the TV menus, exit the EZ-Manager Wizard. Then, continue
with step 3.
• If the wizard is not displayed, go directly to step 3.
3. If applicable (see also “Before You Begin” above), make sure to assign the appropriate Zone
designation in the Target TV at this time.
Note: In order for the proper location-specic TV Zone prole data to be applied,
the Zone designation must be assigned in the Target TV(s) BEFORE importing is
initiated.
4. Insert the USB memory device with the Clone/Conguration (.tlx) le into the USB port on the
Target TV.

FTG File Manager Utilities Overview
As indicated in the introduction to this document, there are two separate and distinct methods for
configuring LX570H TVs for FTG Mode of operation: one 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.
This section provides an overview of the FTG File Manager, which is used for FTG Mode via CPU
configuration. FTG File Manager software is available online at: www.LGsolutions.com/ftgsoftware.
Creating an FTG Conguration File
The procedure below describes how to use the FTG File Manager utilities (see sample screens on pages
41 to 44) to create an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le that can be saved to a USB memory device. In order
to enable decryption of Pro:Idiom encrypted channels, it is recommended that you create or view/edit an
FTG Conguration le using the FTG File Manager.
Note: There is also an option to save (export) FTG Conguration from a TV, which may be desirable or
required if you want to save customized TV setup menu settings to the FTG Conguration le and/or if
you do not know the RF channels at the site. See “
information.
This procedure provides an overview of the steps required to create an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file.
Refer to the Free-To-Guest (FTG) File Manager User Guide for further information.
1. Install (if necessary) and launch the FTG File Manager (v1.2.4 or later) on the PC that will be used to
create the FTG Configuration (.tlx) file.
2. You have a number of options:
• To view and/or base a new FTG Conguration le on an existing FTG Conguration (.tlx) le, click
the Open button in the TLX File command section of the FTG File Manager main screen, and select/
double-click on the desired “.tlx” file.
A list of the file’s contents will be displayed in the TLX File Contents window. Either double-click on an
individual item to copy it, or click the Copy All button directly above the TLX File Contents window to
automatically copy all the contents of the opened file to the FTG Configuration List and, if applicable,
TV Setup Menu List. Note, though, that while TV setup menu settings can be included in the new FTG
Configuration file, the TV setup menu settings are not available for editing.
Edit the configuration of the items in the FTG Configuration List as well as the FTG Configuration
List itself and/or the TV Setup Menu List, as necessary, to create a new file. Then, proceed to step 3
when you are ready to continue.
• To open an existing FTG Conguration (.rml) le created in the FTG Device Conguration
Application to use its FTG Channel Map and/or FTG Installer Menu settings, click File and then Open
from the FTG File Manager menu bar, and select/double-click on the desired “.rml” le.
Edit channels and/or settings as necessary. Then, proceed to step 3 when you are ready to continue.
• Create a new FTG Channel Map using the FTG Channel Map Editor in the FTG Channel Map
Conguration Utility. Up to 600 channels can be defined in the FTG Channel Map.
When you are ready to continue, click Congure and then FTG File Manager from the FTG File

The b-LAN module is internal to the TV. It allows hotel/institution head end equipment with b-LAN technology
to communicate, via the institution’s RF distribution system, with the TV for configuration and control.
Installer Menu item 118 POWER SAVINGS controls the power circuitry for both the embedded b-LAN module
and the GAME CONTROL/MPI port. The default value is 3—the b-LAN module is only powered when the TV
is turned ON. See chart below.
TV OFF
POWER
SAVINGS
1 On On
3 (default) Off On
A b-LAN enabled head end device, such as an LG FMA-LG101, broadcasts over the RF distribution system
to communicate to multiple TVs. When the TV is first installed, it must be turned ON in order for its embedded
b-LAN module to receive communication from the head end device. At this point, if it is desired for the b-LAN
module to always be powered, including while the TV is turned OFF, set Installer Menu item 118 POWER
SAVINGS to 1.
Also, if MPI communication is required for external MPI control, set Installer Menu item 118 POWER SAVINGS
to 1 so that the GAME CONTROL/MPI port circuitry is always powered.
Caution: POWER SAVINGS should NEVER be set to 7. This setting is intended for factory use
only.

UPN 000-000-000-000 ASIC D279
PTC V1.00.008 CPU V3.00.20.01
This example illustrates Installer Menu item 042 value
241, which enables auto-sensing for all available Aux
inputs. The input #s in the display code (7, 6, 5, 4, 0
in this example) identify the enabled Aux inputs. See

item 042 values.
Each code consists of eight characters that identify the Aux input(s) for which auto-sensing is enabled.
The following table identies the Installer Menu display code Input # for each Aux input that is available on
the LX570H TV models. The table also identies the Installer Menu item associated with each Aux input.
Remember that in order for auto-sensing to be enabled for an input, that input must also be enabled in the
Installer Menu.

Reference: Restoring Factory Defaults on the TV(s)
This section describes how to restore all factory defaults or just the Installer Menu factory defaults either on a
single TV that is currently in Pass-through or FTG Mode or on multiple TVs that are currently in FTG Mode.
Restore All Factory Defaults
This section describes how to restore a single TV, regardless of its mode, to a factory default condition.
The following procedure requires that you contact LG technical support to obtain a predened value/
password for Installer Menu item 117 FACT DEFAULT that enables access to initiate a factory “IN-STOP”
process, which restores all factory defaults. This procedure will also reactivate the EZ-Manager Wizard.
1. Use the Installer Remote to access the TV’s Installer Menu.
2. Navigate to Installer Menu item 117 FACT DEFAULT, and key in the value provided by technical support.
Then, press OK.
3. At the prompt for conrmation, key in the password provided by technical support. This will initiate the
IN-STOP that restores the factory defaults on the TV.
Installer Menu Item 117 FACT DEFAULT
If the TV is currently in Pass-through Mode, you can set Installer Menu item 117 FACT DEFAULT to 1 to
restore the Installer Menu factory defaults and clear the PTC Channel Map, including any assigned
channel icons and custom text labels. Note, however, that if a complete restoration of the TV’s factory defaults is required, see “Restore All Factory Defaults” above.
Additional FTG Mode via CPU Options
There are two additional options for restoring Pass-through Mode/Installer Menu factory defaults on TVs that
are in FTG Mode via the CPU. The rst enables you to restore a single TV to Pass-through Mode, while the
second enables you to restore multiple TVs to Pass-through Mode at one time. However, both options require
that you create a “Zero Mapped Channels” FTG Conguration (.tlx) le, i.e., an FTG Conguration le with no
data. Refer to the Free-To-Guest (FTG) File Manager User Guide for further information.
• Using a USB memory device, import a “Zero Mapped Channels” FTG Conguration (.tlx) le on the TV.
Refer to “Importing a Clone File” on pages 36 to 38 for further information on the import procedure.
• If your system uses a Pro:Centric server for remote management, use the Pro:Centric server Admin
Client to load a “Zero Mapped Channels” FTG Conguration (.tlx) le on the Pro:Centric server. Refer to
the Pro:Centric Server Admin Client User Guide for further information.
Additional FTG Mode via EBL Options
There are two additional options for restoring Pass-through Mode/factory defaults on TVs that are in FTG
Mode via the EBL. The rst enables you to restore a single TV to Pass-through Mode, while the second
enables you to restore multiple TVs to Pass-through Mode at one time.
Note: While the IN-STOP process described above will clear both the PTC and the CPU, both
options below only clear the PTC. Thus, the current Channel Map and TV setup menu settings
will remain in the CPU after the reset is completed.
• Using a direct PC-to-TV connection, “Write” an unpopulated Channel Map—that is, a Channel Map with 0
(zero) channels—to the TV. See Reference section, “FTG Mode via EBL (Local Conguration),” and/or the
Free-To-Guest (FTG) Device Configuration Application User Guide for further information.
• If your system uses an FMA for remote management/broadcast conguration, congure the FMA device
with an FMA Conguration (.fma) le that only contains a “0 Mapped Channels” FTG Channel Map to
broadcast to the TV EBL(s). Refer to the Free-To-Guest (FTG) Device Configuration Application User
Guide and/or the Installation & Conguration Guide for the FMA device for further information.

Reference: Using the TV Zoning Feature
This section describes the TV Zoning feature available with the LX570H model TVs. The TV Zoning
feature enables you to create localized congurations for TVs in selected locations, or “Zones,” within the
installation environment, for example, a hotel lobby, tness center, restaurant, etc. This feature is primarily
intended for use when the TV is congured for FTG Mode via CPU operation. However, selected elements
of TV Zoning (Installer Menu and TV Setup Menu prole Zone assignments) may also be used with TV
cloning processes using a USB memory device / “.tlx” le.
Refer to the appropriate section(s) below for further information on the TV Zoning feature and how to set the
TV Zone # in a TV that is currently in Pass-through Mode.
Using the TV Zoning Feature with FTG Mode via CPU Conguration
The FTG File Manager may be used to create an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le that contains multiple Installer
Menu and TV Setup Menu proles, each with its own Zone assignment. Up to nine unique Zones can be
designated for LX570H FTG Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu proles. Zone restrictions can also be
placed on individual channels in the FTG Channel Map. Thus, for example, you may create an FTG Installer
Menu and/or TV Setup Menu prole to specically congure a TV in the hotel lobby and also restrict the
channels that are available to be tuned on that TV.
The TV Zone # must be set appropriately on each TV in order for the TVs to be congured correctly. See
“Set the TV Zone # in the TV” on the following page, and set the TV Zone # in all the TVs in a select area,
so that the TVs are congured with corresponding FTG Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu settings
and/or can omit channels that have been restricted in the FTG Channel Map. TV Zone 0 is the default TV
Zone #.
The following subsections briey describe how to assign Zone designations in the FTG File Manager.
Refer to the Free-To-Guest (FTG) File Manager User Guide for further information.
FTG Installer Menu Prole Zone Assignments
The FTG File Manager main screen enables you to change the Zone assignment (default = Zone 0) for
each Installer Menu prole to be included in an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le. For example, you may wish
to create one LX570H Installer Menu prole for the hotel lobby and another LX570H Installer Menu prole
for the tness center, both of which are different from the FTG Installer Menu prole used for standard
guest rooms. The TV Zoning feature enables you to save multiple LX570H FTG Installer Menu proles,
each with its own Zone assignment, in one FTG Conguration (.tlx) le. If each TV in the aforementioned
locations (Zones) has had its TV Zone # set appropriately, as described in the procedure on the following
page or via the EZ-Manager Wizard, the TV(s) will only be congured by the Installer Menu prole that
matches its(their) Zone setting.
In the FTG File Manager main screen, you can also edit the Zone assignment for each Installer Menu
prole and/or TV Setup Menu prole already present in the FTG Conguration List and TV Setup Menu
List windows.
Note: See also the FTG File Manager main screen overview on page 41. In addition, note that TV Setup
Menu proles cannot be created in the FTG File Manager; they must be saved (exported) from a TV.
FTG Channel Map Zone Restrictions
The FTG Channel Map Editor in the FTG File Manager’s FTG Channel Map Conguration Utility enables
you to place Zone restrictions on individual channels that may be prohibited or deemed unsuitable for
selected locations. In the FTG Channel Map Editor, one or more Zone restrictions (1–8) may be placed on
each channel that is to be restricted. For example, if you wish to restrict a channel from Zones 2 and 4,
select both “Zone 2” and “Zone 4” in the Zone Restriction section of the FTG Channel Map Editor screen
when dening or editing that channel.
206-4278
61
Reference: Using the TV Zoning Feature (Cont.)
Note: While a channel can be restricted from up to eight Zones, a TV can only ever be in (set for) one
Zone. See also the FTG Channel Map Editor overview on page 43.
At the same time, keep in mind that the TV Zone designations are not mutually exclusive. That is, you may
opt to place Zone restrictions on selected channels in the FTG Channel Map, but at the same time, you can
choose to congure all TVs at the site with the same Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu settings. For
example, an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le being used to congure the TVs at a site may contain multiple
Installer Menu and TV Setup Menu proles with different Zone assignments, as well as an FTG Channel
Map with Zone restrictions on several channels. Each TV that still has the default TV Zone 0 setting will only
be congured by the Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu prole(s) with a Zone 0 designation. If, on the
other hand, the TV Zone # is set to 1, the TV will rst look in the le for the LX570H Installer Menu and/or
TV Setup Menu prole(s) with a Zone 1 designation. If none of the LX570H Installer Menu and/or TV Setup
Menu proles has a Zone 1 designation, the TV will then look for the LX570H prole(s) with a Zone 0
designation. For the FTG Channel Map conguration, when the TV Zone # is set to 0, the TV will ignore
any Zone restrictions (1–8) that may be placed on channels in the FTG Channel Map. However, when
the TV Zone # is set to 1, the TV will omit any channels that have been restricted from Zone 1 in the FTG
Channel Map.
Using the TV Zoning Feature with Cloning Conguration
A location-specic conguration / Clone (.tlx) le may be saved (exported) from a Master TV and then be
used to congure Target TVs. For example, if the TV Zone # in the Master TV is set to 3 before the Clone
le export is initiated, the Master TV’s Installer Menu and TV Setup Menu proles will be saved with the TV
Zone 3 assignment. In order to congure the Target TVs with the Zone 3 Installer Menu and TV Setup Menu
proles exported from the Master TV, you must set the TV Zone # accordingly in the Target TVs before
importing the Clone le. See “Set the TV Zone # in the TV” below. Also, see “Cloning Procedures” on
pages 35 to 38 for additional information on the cloning processes. TV Zone 0 is the default TV Zone #.
Set the TV Zone # in the TV
You can set the TV Zone # in the EZ-Manager Wizard (see “EZ-Manager Wizard” on pages 12 to 18) or,
if the TV is in Pass-through Mode, via the TV’s setup menus as described below. Note that the following
procedure can only be performed while the TV is in Pass-through Mode. You will also be able to specify a
Label (North, South, East, West) and Room Number for this TV, if desired.
1. Turn ON the TV.
2. Press MENU SETTINGS on the Installer Remote, and use the arrow navigation keys to select/highlight
the OPTION menu option. Then, press OK.
3. Use the Up/Down arrows to select Zones & Room Number, and then press OK.
4. In the Zone, Label, and Room Number pop-up window, complete the appropriate elds as described
below. Use the Left/Right arrow keys on the Installer Remote to navigate between each of the elds.
• Zone: Enables you to set a TV Zone # so that the TV can be congured with Installer Menu and/or TV
Setup Menu settings intended only for the assigned Zone. The Installer Menu and/or TV Setup Menu
settings may be provided in a Clone/Conguration (.tlx) le. If the TV is being congured for FTG Mode
via CPU, the TV Zone # setting also allows the TV to omit channels that have been restricted in the
FTG Channel Map (see “FTG Channel Map Zone Restrictions” on previous page).
