the tuning operation of the STB based on this FTG Channel Map. The FTG Channel Map enables the
decryption of each Pro:Idiom
®
encrypted channel and also provides logical channel mapping of physical RF
channels (analog and digital) and Aux inputs.
Note: Logical channel mapping of physical RF channels eliminates dash tuning (for example, physical 19-3
can be mapped to logical channel 9). Physical channel tuning requires that you include the dash when direct
entering channel numbers.

• Logical tuning of physical RF channels and Aux inputs.
• Logical tuning of IP channels.
• Mapping of RF channels with minor (program) numbers up to 999.
