Before You Begin
• Ensure the USB device has been formatted with FAT format.
• If the STB is not already in FTG Mode, complete the Custom Master STB Setup procedure (see
pages 39 to 41).
• If you would like the Target STB(s) to remain in Pass-through Mode after Teaching, ensure
the Master STB does not have an auto-tuned/edited channel lineup; otherwise, Teaching the
LearnedlewillresultintheTargetSTB(s)beingconguredforFTGMode.
• If you intend to use the STB Zoning feature(s), make sure to assign the appropriate TV Zone #
and/or Wi-Fi Zone # as described in Reference section, “Using the STB’s Zoning Features,”
BEFORE performing the Learning procedure. Also, for Wi-Fi Zoning in particular, the STB’s
