This section describes how to create a customized Master STB Setup for cloning purposes when the STB
is in Pass-through Mode.
Note: Cloning requirements and procedures are described in detail on pages 40 to 44. Refer to FTG Mode
information on pages 45 to 51 for details on entering FTG Mode and configuring/editing the FTG Channel
Map and FTG Installer Menu settings.
Before You Begin
• It is recommended that you disconnect all Aux inputs if you intend to run Auto Tuning (Channel Search).
Under certain conditions, Auto Tuning is disabled if there is an Aux input active.
• All Learning and Teaching processes on the STB are performed via USB memory device. See "Cloning
Methods" below to determine the type of file—either the TLX file format or the legacy TLL file format—
to use for cloning purposes; several of the Master STB Setup procedure steps are dependent on the
desired file type.
Cloning Methods
See also "Clonable STB Setup Menu Features" list below.
Using a USB Memory Device / TLX File
• The TLX file format clones Installer Menu settings, IP Environment Menu settings (with the exception
of unique STB attributes), and all STB sources' (analog, digital, AV1, HDMI, etc.) clonable setup menu
settings.
• Not intended for cloning an auto-tuned/edited channel lineup, as the channel lineup is converted to a
logical FTG Channel Map when saved (Learned) from an STB to a TLX file. If the TLX file with the FTG
Channel Map is then used for Teaching purposes, the Target STB(s) will be configured for FTG Mode.
Using a USB Memory Device / TLL File
The TLL file format only clones the contents of the commercial controller (PTC) memory, which is limited
to an auto-tuned/edited channel lineup, Installer Menu settings, and one STB source's (analog, digital, or
Aux) clonable setup menu settings.
