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.
• Any FTG conguration changes must be made using either the FTG File Manager (FTG Mode via CPU)
or the FTG Device Conguration Application (FTG Mode via EBL). FTG Channel Map Conguration and
FTG Installer Menu Conguration Utilities 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 congure the TV
for FTG Mode operation (via CPU or EBL), all subsequent changes must be transferred to either the TV
or the EBL via a process that is in accordance or compatible with that method (see information on local
conguration in this document or refer to documentation for the head end device/server for information on
remote management).
• If it becomes necessary to reset the TV to Pass-through Mode, there are several options that will enable
you to do so. Refer to Reference section, “Resetting Factory Defaults on the TV(s),” for further information.
Pages 41 to 44 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) Configuration Application manual for information on the FTG Device
Configuration Application.
Determining the TV Operating Mode
To determine the operating mode of the TV, press MENU on the Installer Remote. The menu display
alternates based on the operating mode. See examples below.
If the end user Function Menu appears, typically the TV is in FTG Mode. If the TV setup menus appear,
the TV is in Pass-through Mode.
Note: If the TV is not in FTG Mode, but both the Data Channel and the Pro:Centric Application Mode
have been set in the Installer Menu or the Pro:Centric Menu, the TV is in Application Tuning Mode. In
Application Tuning Mode, only the Function Menu is available to end users instead of the TV setup
menus; however, Installer Menu items remain editable (not read-only).
