23.Cleaning

When cleaning, unplug the power cord and wipe gently with a soft cloth to prevent scratching. Do not spray water or other liquids directly on the TV as electric shock may occur. Do not clean with chemicals such as alcohol, thinners or benzene.

24.Transporting Product

Make sure the TV is turned Off and unplugged and that all cables have been removed. It may take two or more people to carry larger TVs. Do not press against or put stress on the front panel of the TV during transport.

25.Ventilation

Install the TV where there is proper ventilation. Do not install in a confined space such as a bookcase. Do not cover the TV with cloth or other materials (e.g., plastic) while it is plugged in. Do not install in excessively dusty places.

26.Do not touch the ventilation openings, as they may become hot while the TV is operating.

27.If you smell smoke or other odors coming from the TV or hear strange sounds, unplug the power cord, and contact an authorized service center.

28.Do not press against the front panel of the TV with your hand or a sharp object (e.g., a nail, pencil, or pen) or make a scratch on it.

29.Keep the product away from direct sunlight.

30.Dot Defect

The LCD panel is a high technology product with resolution of two million to six million pixels. In a very few cases, you could see fine dots on the screen while you are viewing the

TV. Those dots are deactivated pixels and do not affect the performance and reliability of the TV.

31.Generated Sound

“Cracking”: A cracking noise that occurs while the TV is On or when it is turned Off is generated by plastic thermal contraction due to temperature and humidity. This noise is

common for products where thermal deformation is required.

Electrical circuit humming/panel buzzing: A low level noise is generated from a high-speed switching circuit, which supplies a large amount of current to operate a product. It varies depending on the product. This generated sound does not affect the performance and reliability of the product.

32.For LCD TV

If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a small “flicker” when it is turned On. This is normal; there is nothing wrong with the TV. Some minute dot defects may be visible on the screen, appearing as tiny red, green, or blue spots. However, they have no adverse effect on the TV’s performance. Avoid touching the LCD screen or holding your finger(s) against it for long periods of time. Doing so may produce some temporary distortion effects on the screen.

Commercial Mode Overview

This document describes how to set up LY970H 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 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.

Pass-through Mode

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.

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 configuring essential items for Pro:Centric operation and also provides an option for using a USB memory device to configure 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 via CPU configuration purposes. Use the Installer Remote to configure 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.

206-4260

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 26 to 36 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 capturing a Master TV Setup and transferring it to 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 40 to 45 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), 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 during configuration (refer to “Teaching Configuration to a Target TV” on pages 42 to 45 and also see notes below). 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-specific configuration.

LG’s FTG File Manager PC software enables you to create an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file, which may be used to configure the CPU for FTG Mode. You can also save (Learn) a TLX file from a Master TV. In this mode, the

CPU is the owner of the FTG Channel Map and must be configured with an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer

Menu settings using one of the following processes:

Local: Configure an individual LY970H TV via its USB port using a USB memory device / TLX file. The “Teach to TV (TLX)” process and associated procedures are described on pages 40 to 45.

Remote: Configure all LY970H TVs at the site using a Pro:Centric server head end device (Example: PCS150R). 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 Configuration Application PC software is required to configure the EBL. In this mode, the EBL is the owner of the FTG Channel Map and must be configured with an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer

Menu settings using one of the following processes:

Local: Configure an individual LY970H TV’s EBL via its TV-LINK CFG jack using a direct PC-to-TV

(EBL) connection and the FTG Device Configuration

Application. See Reference section, “FTG Mode via

EBL (Local Configuration),” for information on the

“Write” process for an FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings.

Remote: Configure all LY970H 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 &

Configuration Guide for the FMA device for further information.

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 configuration changes must be made using a TLX file (typically edited in the FTG File Manager), while FTG Mode via EBL configuration changes must be made using the the FTG Device ConfigurationApplication. FTG Channel Map Configuration and FTG Installer Menu Configuration 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 configure 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

configuration 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 46 to 51 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 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. 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 appear, the TV is in Pass-through Mode.

Remote management (TV E-Z Installation): The Pro:Centric server Admin Client provides remote management facilities for downloading splash screen image and software/firmware updates as well as facilities for downloading a 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 server Admin Client.

The Pro:Centric server settings can be configured 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 configuring the Pro:Centric server settings.

The EZ-Manager Wizard also provides a USB configuration option that enables you to configure a TV for FTG Mode via CPU using a TLX file stored on a USB memory device. The TLX file incorporates FTG

Installer Menu settings, which includes Installer Menu items 098 PRO:CENTRIC and 119 DATA CHANNEL. 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 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

configuration 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 configuration.

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 45.

Configure the appropriate Pro:Centric server settings in the IP Environment / Pro:Centric Menu. You must use this option, in particular, if you wish to configure IP settings for the Pro:Centric server. See

“Accessing the IP Environment Menu” on page 52 and “Pro:Centric Setup” on pages 52 to 54 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.

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 affiliated fields). Then, transfer the FTG Installer Menu settings to the TV in accordance with the FTG Mode of configuration. Refer to theFTG Mode overview on pages 7 to 9 for further information on FTG Mode operation and configuration. 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

Note: After it is turned ON, the TV begins an initialization process, and it may take several minutes for the EZ-Manager Wizard to appear.

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 configuration, the wizard also offers Zoning as well as USB configuration options.

LY970H TVs support the TV Zoning and Wi-Fi Zoning features, both of which enable locationspecific settings (see Reference section, “Using the TV’s Zoning Features,” for further information).

The EZ-Manager Wizard enables you to set the TV Zone # and/or the Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV as part of the configuration process.

The EZ-Manager Wizard also enables you to redirect to the TV’s standard TV Manager / USB Download Menu as part of the configuration process, if desired, to perform USB configuration 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 configuration process, as doing so will interrupt the current step and may corrupt the configuration data.

Before You Begin

If you plan to create a Master TV Setup using the procedure described on pages 37 to 39, be sure to exit the EZ-Manager Wizard in order to avoid setting modes that may restrict the custom setup procedure. See also “Initiate Configuration 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 configured on the system and if no location-specific 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 configuration steps with no further user interaction.

If any of the configuration steps fails, you will see a “Diagnostics” screen with an indication of the failure. You will then have the opportunity to reinitiate the configuration process from the previous screen or exit the EZ-Manager Wizard.

If you wish to enable media sharing (i.e., Smart Share, Screen Share, DMR, and SoftAP) on the

TV without using a TLX file for configuration purposes, you will need to create a custom Master

TV Setup and use the IP Environment Menu to specify the settings. Custom Master TV Setup is described on pages 37 to 39. Refer to “IP Environment Setup” on pages 52 to 59 for information on the IP Environment Menu.

UPDATE

Note: If there are no files of a particular file type on the USB device, that file type field will not be displayed in the Ez Download screen. For example, if there are no PTC files on the USB device, you will not see a “PTC Software” field in the Ez Download screen.

Note: Press on the Installer Remote or select BACK, as necessary, to return to the

TV Manager / USB Download Menu. To exit the TV Manager, select CANCEL (if accessed from the TV menus, you may also press EXIT on the Installer Remote to exit). 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 Configuration” option. If you accessed the TV Manager via the

TV menus, you will be returned to program viewing.

7.If more than one USB memory device is currently connected to the TV, be sure to select the

USB device that contains the file(s) you wish to use. If necessary, use the Up/Down arrow keys on the Installer Remote to select/highlight the Select USB Memory Device field and press OK. Then, use the arrow keys to select the appropriate USB device from the drop-down list.

8.To select a file, use the Up/Down arrows on the Installer Remote to select/highlight the appropriate file type/pull-down field, and then press OK to view a drop-down list of available files. From the drop-down list, use the Up/Down arrow keys to select the desired file.

Note: The utility will only allow you to select one of each file type for downloading. For example, if there are two files in the Ez Download Teach To TV (TLX) file list, you can only select one or the other of those two files.

Note: The initial default value for each file type is “None.” After the Ez Download utility is run, a file is automatically created and stored on the USB device that was used. The file, which will have a “.dzm” file extension, maintains a history of the file(s) previously used with the Ez Download utility. The next time(s) you use this USB device with the Ez Download utility, the file(s) selected for the last download will be pre-selected for the current download.

(Continued from previous page)

Note: If a TV Software (CPU) file is selected,TV SW Version and Update Version fields will be displayed at the bottom right of the screen. Ensure the software version of the selected file is the correct version before applying the update to this TV.

9.If a TLX file that includes an FTG Channel Map is selected, aChannel Tuning / Channel Banner Display field 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 file does not include an FTG Channel Map, the message, “No Channel Map in TLX file,” 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 shown in a new screen. Do NOT remove the USB device while updates are in progress. When the Ez Download process is complete, the TV will briefly display an overview of the results and then either return to program viewing or reboot (the latter if software has just been updated).

11.Remove the USB memory device, and verify that the appropriate configuration/update(s) is/are resident on the TV.

Note for TLX configuration: When configuration is complete, the TV tunes according to the Start Channel setting in the Installer Menu. If a Start Channel is specified, the TV will tune to that channel, though in the case of FTG Mode via CPU configuration, 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 first 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 configuring the TV CPU using a TLX file created using LG’s FTG File Manager software or configuring the EBL locally (.rml) or remotely (via FMA-LG101 / .fma) using the FTG Device ConfigurationApplication 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 modified, the entry sequence may be one of three additional options. See Installer Menu detailed descriptions for further information.

The Installer Menu opens with item 000 INSTALLER SEQ 000.

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 configuration 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 Lock setup menu, will now be disabled, and the individual Parental Control settings will be restored to default values.

Caution: Installer Menu settings may affect options available from the TV setup menus or the Function Menu.
