Pro:centric Setup - LG STB-2000 Setup Manual

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 specified on the STB to enable Pro:Centric remote management and/or the Pro:Centric application.
• Remote management (TV E-Z Installation): The Pro:Centric server Admin Client provides remote
management facilities for downloading software/firmware updates as well as facilities for downloading a
TLX file for FTG Mode 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 configured using one of the following methods:
• When the STB 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 an
STB for FTG Mode using an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file stored on a USB memory device. The FTG
Configuration 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 15 to 22 for further information on the EZ-Manager Wizard
options.
• If the STB is in Pass-through Mode, either:
− Set Installer Menu items 098 PRO:CENTRIC and 119 DATA CHANNEL to the appropriate values. Refer
to "Installer Menu" information on pages 25 to 34 for further information. Also, as necessary, refer to
"Custom Master STB Setup" information on pages 35 to 38 and/or cloning information on pages 40 to 44.
− 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 56 and "Pro:Centric Setup" on pages 60 to 61 for
further information.
Note: When the STB is in either Pass-through Mode or FTG Mode, you can also leave Installer Menu
item 119 DATA CHANNEL set to its default value (255) to enable the STB's Data Channel Auto Search
feature to set the DATA CHANNEL value. See item 119 description on page 33 for additional information.
• If the STB is in FTG Mode, use the FTG File Manager 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 STB. Refer to the FTG Mode overview on pages 10 to 11 for further information on
FTG Mode operation and configuration. Also, see note above regarding the option to use the STB's Data
Channel Auto Search feature to set the DATA CHANNEL value.
