COMMERCIAL MODE SETUP
REFERENCE: DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING A
MASTER TV
IMPORTANT INSTALLER SETUP INFORMATION! PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING...
To set up a master TV you will need to know
how to enter the TV Installer menu and make
changes to the default values as required. If
necessary, familiarize yourself with the TV
Installer menu and how to make and save changes in the
menu, befor
e
attempting to clone the TV Master TV
setup.
You will also need an
LLGG IInnssttaalllleerr rreemmoottee ccoonnttrrooll
similar to the one shown in the front of this manual. The
installer remote must have a “Source” button or its equiv-
alent. The remote shown in this manual has a “INPUT”
button -- this button serves the purpose of a Source but-
ton.
Finally, the TV’s clonable features need to be set up. This
is a critical step. If the Master TV display panel’s clonable
features like adding channel icons or channel labels, digi-
tal font options etc., are not correctly added, then the
cloned TVs will all have problems.
As the cloning procedure is being performed, specific
steps need to be done at the indicated times to achieve
the desired result. Be sure to do each task as indicated. If
a procedure or step is left out or not performed com-
pletely, cloning may not work. At each step, pay attention
to assure the TV screen shows the proper message when
cloning. If the message indicated does not appear, there
is a problem with that step and cloning may not be suc-
cessful. Cloning is only possible when the signal source is
an Analog
channel, not a digital channel.
Detailed Instructions
The following describes the procedure for preparing a
Master TV for cloning and the procedure for adding
Channel Icons and/or Labels.
Note 1: Disconnect all Aux inputs. Under certain condi-
tions, Auto Tuning Channel Search is disabled if there is an
Aux input active.
Note 2: Under certain conditions, changes to the input
mode of the RGB inputs will not take effect until the power
is cycled (TV is turned Off and On). To avoid confusion, dis-
connect all RGB inputs before entering the Installer menu.

accessing installer menu item 117 FACT DEFAULT, set it
to 1 and press “ENTER”. The value will change back to 0
after the TV’s internal controller has been restored to
factory default condition. This step will ensure that the
TV channel memory will be the active channel list. Check
the Status LED. If it is blinking rapidly then the TV chan-
nel map is in use.
