Commercial Mode Overview
This document describes how to set up LX774H 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 Translation Controller (PTC), or 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 and/or Easy Setup Guide 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 21 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 configuration purposes. Use the Installer Remote to congure Installer
Menu items as required for TV operation and set up TV features (Channel, Picture, Sound, etc.). See
“Custom Master TV Setup” on pages 37 to 39 for detailed information.

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. See pages 26
to 36 for information on accessing the Installer Menu and for detailed
descriptions of the Installer Menu items.
PTC INSTALLER MENU
xxLX774H

000 INSTALLER SEQ 000
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 congure
a Target TV. The Master TV’s clonable setup menu features should
be congured 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. See
pages 40 to 46 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 (digital and analog),
IP channels, 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.

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, depending on the types of channels included in
the FTG Channel Map, FTG Mode via CPU also provides the option to select either logical or physical
tuning (see notes 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, IP 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).
Note: Physical channel tuning is not available when IP channels are included in the FTG Channel Map.
FTG Mode via CPU
This mode provides the following features:
• Logical or physical tuning of physical RF channels and
Aux inputs.
• Logical tuning of IP channels.
• Mapping of RF channels with minor (program) numbers
up to 999.
• FTG Channel Map of up to 600 channels.
• Start Channel set for RF, Aux input, or IP delivered
content.
• Pro:Centric data delivery over RF or IP.
• TV Zoning and Wi-Fi Zoning options 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 LX774H 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 40 to 46) or an FTG Conguration le (see “FTG
File Manager Utilities Overview” on pages 47 to 52).
• Remote: Congure all LX774H TVs at the site using
a Pro:Centric server head end device (Example:
PCS200S). 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 LX774H 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 LX774H TV EBLs at the site
using a Free-To-Guest Management Appliance (FMA)
head end device (Example: FMA-LG102). Refer to
the Free-To-Guest (FTG) Device Configuration ApplicationUser Guide and/or the Installation &
Conguration Guide for the FMA device for further
information.

206-4309
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 47 to 52 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/Configuration (.tlx) file loaded on the
Pro:Centric Admin Client. See 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-LG102) 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. See examples below. If the Function Menu 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 (Quick Settings) appear, the TV is in Pass-through Mode.

Pro:Centric Setup
Administration and management options for the Pro:Centric server are described in detail in the
Pro:Centric Server Admin Client User Guide. This document describes only those settings that must
be specied on the TVs to enable Pro:Centric remote management and/or the Pro:Centric application.
• Remote management (TV E-Z Installation): The Pro:Centric Admin Client provides remote management
facilities for downloading splash screen image and software/firmware updates as well as facilities for
downloading a Clone/Configuration (.tlx) file for FTG Mode via CPU configuration.
• Pro:Centric application: The application, which operates in conjunction with FTG and PPV Modes,
comprises the Pro:Centric interactive menus/features described on the previous page. Pro:Centric
application settings are managed via the Pro:Centric Admin Client.
The Pro:Centric server settings can be congured using one of the methods described below.
TV in Factory Default State
When the TV is in a factory default state, the EZ-Manager Wizard provides automated or manual options
for conguring the Pro:Centric server settings.
The EZ-Manager Wizard also provides a USB conguration option that enables you to congure a TV for
FTG Mode via CPU using a Clone/Configuration (.tlx) le stored on a USB memory device. The “.tlx” le
incorporates FTG Installer Menu settings, including Installer Menu items 098 PRO:CENTRIC and 119 DATA
CHANNEL, which are used to set up the TV’s Pro:Centric feature.
Refer to “EZ-Manager Wizard” on pages 12 to 21 for further information on the EZ-Manager Wizard options.
Note: If Pro:Centric data delivery will be over IP and there is a Domain Name System (DNS) server at
the site, you can create a “procentric.local” DNS entry 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 26 to 36 for further details. Also, as necessary, refer to
“Custom Master TV Setup” on pages 37 to 39 and/or cloning information on pages 40 to 46.
• 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 53 and “Pro:Centric Setup” on pages 57 to 59 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 35 for additional information.

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 36 to 38, 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” on the following
page.
• 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, Wi-Fi 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.
• If you would like to enable the DIAL and/or SoftAP Media Share features or select pre-loaded/
Smart Launcher applications on a TV that will eventually be congured for FTG Mode, you will
need to use the IP Environment Menu to do so before the TV is congured for FTG Mode. Refer
to “IP Environment Setup” on pages 53 to 61 for information on the IP Environment Menu.
See also “Custom Master TV Setup” on pages 37 to 39.

You have the following options:
• You can allow the EZ-Manager Wizard to proceed with a series of automated steps to congure
the TV for Pro:Centric operation and then to look for the Pro:Centric application and maintenance
(E-Z Installation) les to download. In this case, the wizard uses a search algorithm to determine
the Data Channel and the Pro:Centric Application Mode to set in the TV.
Continue with the “Automated Pro:Centric Conguration” subsection below.
• If you already know the settings (e.g., Data Channel and Pro:Centric Application Mode) that need
to be congured in order for the TV to connect to the Pro:Centric server and/or if the Pro:Centric
server is not yet installed, you may expedite the setup process by entering this data manually.

Automated Pro:Centric Conguration
Note: If the server is not yet congured on the system, use the manual conguration option to
congure the Pro:Centric operation. See also note below.
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
must use the manual conguration option to congure the Pro:Centric IP operation.
Once the Pro:Centric data channel is found (a Pro:Centric Server Was Found screen will be

and then press OK. A list of available les will be displayed to the right of the le type elds.
• Then, use the arrow keys to select the desired le.
Note: With the exception of background image les, the utility will only allow you to select one
of each le type for downloading. For example, if there are two les in the Ez Download “Import
Clone File” list, you can only select one or the other of those two les.
Note: The initial default value for each le type is “None.” 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” le 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, thus
facilitating the process of conguring additional TVs of this model using the same USB device.
Note: The current TV software (CPU) or PTC software version is always displayed above the
listing of available TV software and PTC software les, respectively. Ensure the software version
of the selected le is the correct version before applying the update to this TV.

9. If a Clone/Conguration (.tlx) le that includes an FTG Channel Map is selected, a Channel
Tuning / Channel Banner Display eld will be displayed at the right of the screen. If the FTG
Channel Map comprises RF channels and Aux inputs only (the latter designated by 130-0
through 137-0), you can choose the format for the channel tuning/banner display. Use the
arrow keys on the Installer Remote to select Logical tuning or Physical tuning. A checkmark
will appear at the left of the selected option. Logical tuning is selected by default.
Note: If an FTG Channel Map includes IP channels, only logical tuning is available. Also, if the
selected “.tlx” le does not include an FTG Channel Map, the message, “No Channel Map in
Clone le,” will be displayed at the right of the screen.
10. When you are ready to continue, use the arrow keys on the Installer Remote to select UPDATE,
and then press OK.
Update progress will be displayed on the screen. Do NOT remove the USB device while
updates are in progress. When the Ez Download process is complete, an overview of the
results will briey be displayed and then, the TV will reboot.
11. Remove the USB memory device, and verify that the appropriate configuration/update(s) is/are
resident on the TV.
Note: If you updated the TV configuration with a Clone/Conguration file, upon restart, 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 9, 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 9.

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-LG102 / .fma) using the FTG Device Conguration Application software.
Refer to the table on pages 28 and 29 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

Typical Installer Menu
The Installer Menu header will vary
depending on the TV you are setting
up. In the Installer Menu footer, you
can see the current software versions
of the TV, as indicated.
Note: If the password (entry sequence) is not entered or registered correctly, you will see the
message “ENTER PASSWORD 0000” at the top of the screen instead of the Installer Menu
header. Once you re-enter the correct password (e.g., press 9-8-7-6 + OK), the Installer Menu will
display.
Note: If the TV is not in Pass-through Mode, the Installer Menu is accessible as read-only. Also,
the TV Zone # will be indicated in the Installer Menu header under the conguration mode indicator
described below.

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 Safety Menu, will now be disabled, and the individual Parental Control settings will be restored
to default values.
