COMMERCIAL MODE SETUP
B-LAN Setup and Overview
Power to the B-LAN module is controlled by Installer Menu Item 118 Power savings. By default, value 003, the B-
LAN module is only powered on when the TV is powered on. There are two bits in the Power Savings item to control
power to the B-LAN module, one for power during TV Standby mode and one for power during TV Power On mode.
When the bit is 0, the B-LAN module is powered. When the bit is 1, the B-LAN module is not powered (Power
Savings is Enabled).
The B-LAN module is internal to the TV. It allows the Hotel/Institution headend equipment to communicate with the
TV for configuration and control. This communication is via the institution’s RF distribution system. The control
device at the headend (ex FMA-LG101) can control multiple TVs. When the TV is first installed, it must be powered
on in order for the headend to be able to communicate with the B-LAN. At this point, if it is desired for the BLAN
to always be powered on, particularly during Standby mode, the BLAN Standby Power Saving mode setting should be
downloaded as Disabled. The new settings will not be active until the BLAN actually downloads the configuration
data to the PTC and the PTC is reset.
If it known that the application requires only using the MPI card slot and not the embedded BLAN, the installer can
go into the Installer Settings menu and enable the BLAN Power Savings mode, in both Standby and TV power on.
