This section describes how to create an FTG Configuration (.tlx) file that can be saved to a USB memory 

device. In order to enable Pro:Idiom decryption, it is recommended that you create an FTG Configuration 

file using the FTG File Manager. 
Notes:  •  FTG File Manager software is available online at: www.LGcommercial.com/FTGsoftware.

•  There is also an option to save (Learn) an FTG Configuration file from a TV, which may be 

desirable or required in either of the following situations: 

 

− If you want to save customized TV setup menu settings to the FTG Configuration file (in 

addition to the FTG Channel Map and FTG Installer Menu settings). 

 

− If you do not know the RF channels at the site.
See “Learning an FTG Configuration File from a TV” on page 38 for further information. How-

ever, if you use this option to save an FTG Configuration file, it is still highly recommended 

that you open the new FTG Configuration file in the FTG File Manager to verify the file  

contents/settings and to enable Pro:Idiom decryption by marking Encrypted channels.

The procedure below provides an overview of the steps required to create an FTG Configuration (.tlx) 

file. Refer to the Free-To-Guest (FTG) File Manager User Guide for further information. See also FTG 

File Manager sample screens on pages 41 to 44.
1.  Install (if necessary) and launch the FTG File Manager (v1.0.0 or higher) on the PC that will be used 

to create the FTG Configuration (.tlx) file. 

2.  You have a number of options:

•  To view and/or base a new FTG Configuration file on an existing LD660H/LD665H or LV555H FTG 

Configuration (.tlx) file, click 

Open under the TLX File section of the FTG File Manager main screen, 

and select the desired (.tlx) file. 
A list of the file’s contents will be displayed in the TLX File Contents window. Double-click each item 

individually or click 

Copy All to transfer all the items listed to the FTG Configuration List and, if 

applicable, to the TV Setup Menu List, though note that while TV setup menu settings can be included 

in the new FTG Configuration file, the TV Setup Menu List is not available for editing. 
Edit the configuration of the items in the FTG Configuration List as well as the FTG Configuration 

List, as necessary, to create a new file, and then proceed to step 4 when you are ready to continue.

•  If applicable, you can also open an existing FTG Configuration (.rml) file created in the FTG Device 

Configuration Application to use its FTG Channel Map and/or FTG Installer Menu settings. Edit the 

channels and/or settings as necessary. 

•  Otherwise, create a new FTG Channel Map using the FTG Channel Map Editor in the FTG Channel 

Map Configuration Utility. Then, continue with step 3.
Note: Up to 600 logical channels (combined total of both RF and IP mapped channels) can be 

defined in the FTG Channel Map. 

3.  If necessary, click 

Configure in the FTG File Manager menu bar, and select FTG File Manager to 

return to the FTG File Manager main screen.
