Installer Menu (Cont.)
117 - FACT DEFAULT (Factory Default)
Set to 1 and press OK to restore the factory default settings of all
Installer Menu items. Once complete, the value returns to 0.
Caution: If set to 1, this clears all STB Installer Menu
custom settings and restores the factory default
settings. It also clears the channel lineup, including
any assigned channel icons and custom text labels.
Note: See also Reference section, “Restoring Factory Defaults on
the STB(s),” for further information.
119 - DATA CHANNEL
Set to 0 to disable. Set from 1 to 135 to match the RF channel
number that will be used by the Pro:Centric server as its data
channel. If left at the default value (255), the STB’s Data Channel
Auto Search feature will be enabled (see additional information
below). *
Data Channel Auto Search feature: When this item is set to 255
(default), once every 24 hours, the STB will initiate a search of 10
predenedchannels(10,20,30,...100)andthen,ifnecessary,
perform a complete search of the RF channels (1 to 135) in an
attempttondtheRFchannelusedbythePro:Centricserveras
its data channel. If the Pro:Centric RF channel is found, the DATA
CHANNEL value will be changed from 255 to match the server’s
RF channel number. The time at which the Auto Search occurs
depends on the setting of item 121 UPDATE TIME HR. See item
121 description for further information.
Note: Pro:Centric updates are downloaded from the Pro:Centric
server to the STB when the STB/display panel is turned OFF.
While Pro:Centric updates are in progress, it is not possible to
turn ON the STB/display.
Note: The Data Channel is automatically set to “253” if Media
Type is set to “IP” either in the EZ-Manager Wizard or in the
STB’s IP Environment / Pro:Centric Menu (see “EZ-Manager
Wizard” on pages 15 to 24 or “Pro:Centric Setup” on pages 54
to 56, respectively) or if Installer Menu item #119 Data Channel
is set to “IP Address” in the FTG File Manager, which is used to
congureSTBCPUsforFTGModeoperation.Itisnotpossibleto
change the value to “253” directly in the Installer Menu.
121 - UPDATE TIME HR
Based on the settings of this item and item 122 UPDATE TIME
MN, the Wake For Update feature wakes the STB once daily to
check for and, if applicable, download updates from the Pro:Centric
server.
Set the Wake For Update hour from 0 to 23. This item uses the
24-hour clock format. The value “128” (default) is displayed as
“OFF.” Directly entering 128 resets the default value (OFF) for this
item, though note that this setting does not mean the STB will not
initiate update events—see additional information below.
Under standard STB/display panel OFF/ON operating conditions
(i.e., item 002 AC ON is set to 0), a Wake For Update event occurs
when the STB/display is OFF and causes the STB to temporarily
turn ON, perform the update cycle, and then turn back OFF, all
while the display remains OFF. If item 002 AC ON is set to 2 or 3
for Instant ON, then the STB is always ON and Wake For Update
occurs when the display is OFF. The Wake for Update event
causes the STB to reboot in order to perform the update cycle and
then return to its ON state with the display panel OFF. See also
description for item 002.
Random Distribution of Update Time: If this item is set to 128
(OFF), the time at which either a Data Channel Auto Search (item
119 set to 255) and/or an Instant ON update (item 002 set to 2 or
3) occurs is determined as follows: Each STB initiates the search
and/or checks for updates during the 2 AM hour (if the STB clock
is set) or after two hours of elapsed time from when AC power
wasapplied(iftheSTBclockisnotset).Also,inthiscase,axed
update time minute from 0 to 59 that has been assigned to each
STB is used. (The intention of this feature is to prevent all of the
installed STBs from performing updates at the same time; however,
note that in installations that have a large quantity of STBs with this
feature, there will be some STBs that have the same update minute
assignments.) The update time for the STB is displayed at the right
of this item in the Installer Menu, for example:
121 UPDATE TIME HR OFF 02:34
If the display is ON when a Wake For Update is to occur, the
update will take place the next time the display is turned OFF.
Note: This item is not available in the Installer Menu when item
119 DATA CHANNEL is set to 0, except when item 002 AC ON is
set to 2 or 3 for Instant ON.
Note: The STB clock must be set in order for a Wake For Update
event to occur at the precise time of day in accordance with item
121 and item 122 settings.
122 - UPDATE TIME MN
Set the Wake For Update minute from 0 to 59. If item 121 is NOT
set to 128 and you wish to invoke the “random” minute assignment
on the STB, set this item to 255. See also description for item 121
UPDATE TIME HR above.
Note: This item is not available in the Installer Menu unless item
121 UPDATE TIME HR is set from 0 to 23.
Note: The STB clock must be set in order for a Wake For Update
event to occur at the precise time of day in accordance with item
121 and item 122 settings.
* PCS150R and later Pro:Centric servers do not support HRC or IRC cable channel frequencies.
