Reference: b-LAN Setup & Overview
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 in Standby, set Installer Menu item 118 POWER
SAVINGS to 001.
Also, if MPI communication is required for external MPI control, set Installer Menu item 118 POWER SAVINGS to
001 so that the GAME CONTROL/MPI port circuitry is always powered.
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.
Note: MPI cards with b-LAN technology—LMT7Z5, LMT7Z7, LMT7Z9—are NOT supported in TVs in which
b-LAN technology is already integrated.
Installer Menu item 118 POWER SAVINGS controls the power circuitry for both the embedded b-LAN module and
the GAME CONTROL/MPI port (see note below). The default value is 003—the b-LAN module is only powered
when the TV is turned ON. See chart below.
Note: 26LD320H and all LD340H/LD345H TVs have a dual-purpose GAME CONTROL/MPI port on the TV rear
jack panel. On 32/37/42LD320H and 32/37LD325H TVs, the MPI port is located on the same plate as the RF
Antenna jack.
