Reference: Using the TV’s Zoning Features (Cont.)
Note: While a channel can be restricted from up to eight Zones, a TV can only ever be in (set for) one
Zone. See also the Channel Map web page overview on page 54.
At the same time, keep in mind that the TV Zone designations are not mutually exclusive. That is, you may
opt to place Zone restrictions on selected channels in the FTG Channel Map, but at the same time, you
can choose to congure all TVs at the site with the same Installer Menu and/or Setup Menu settings. For
example, an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le being used to congure the TVs at a site may contain multiple
Installer Menu and Setup Menu proles with different Zone assignments, as well as an FTG Channel Map
with Zone restrictions on several channels. Each TV that still has the default TV Zone 0 setting will only be
congured by the Installer Menu and/or Setup Menu prole(s) with a Zone 0 designation. If, on the other
hand, the TV Zone # is set to 1, the TV will rst look in the le for the EV960H Installer Menu and/or Setup
Menu prole(s) with a Zone 1 designation. If none of the EV960H Installer Menu and/or Setup Menu proles
has a Zone 1 designation, the TV will then look for the EV960H prole(s) with a Zone 0 designation. For the
FTG Channel Map conguration, when the TV Zone # is set to 0, the TV will ignore any Zone restrictions
(1–8) that may be placed on channels in the FTG Channel Map. However, when the TV Zone # is set to 1,
the TV will omit any channels that have been restricted from Zone 1 in the FTG Channel Map.
Using the TV Zoning Feature with Cloning Conguration
A location-specic conguration / Clone (.tlx) le may be saved (exported) from a Master TV and then be
used to congure Target TVs. For example, if the TV Zone # in the Master TV is set to 3 before the Clone
le export is initiated, the Master TV’s Installer Menu and Setup Menu proles will be saved with the TV
Zone 3 assignment. In order to congure the Target TVs with the Zone 3 Installer Menu and Setup Menu
proles exported from the Master TV, you must set the TV Zone # accordingly in the Target TVs before
importing the Clone le. See “Set the TV Zone # and/or Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV” on the following page.
Also, see “Cloning Procedures” on pages 43 to 49 for additional information on the cloning processes. TV
Zone 0 is the default TV Zone #.
Wi-Fi Zoning Feature
The Wi-Fi Zoning feature enables you to use a Clone/Conguration (.tlx) le to congure an individual TV
or group of TVs with a particular Wi-Fi access point’s login data to create “Wi-Fi Zones” within the installation
environment.
Using the Wi-Fi Zoning Feature with FTG Mode Conguration
The Cloud Conguration Tool may be used to create an FTG Conguration (.tlx) le with an FTG Installer
Menu prole that contains login data for multiple Wi-Fi access points, each assigned a Wi-Fi Zone #. Up to
100 Wi-Fi Zones can be designated within each FTG Installer Menu prole, thus allowing for distribution of
the Wi-Fi network load. For example, if a site has 50 EV960H TVs within close proximity, you may wish to
create 10 Wi-Fi Zones, each with its own access point that has unique login data, so that no more than
ve of the TVs are connected to one access point at any given time.
In order for a TV to be congured by the proper Installer Menu prole with the desired Wi-Fi access point
login data for wireless networking (i.e., SSID, security type, and security key), you must set both the TV
Zone # and the Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV (see “Set the TV Zone # and/or Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV” on the
following page for further information). If the Wi-Fi Zone # in the TV is set to 0 (default), the TV will not
obtain access point login data from the Installer Menu prole with which it is congured unless the prole
contains the global Wi-Fi Zone 100. Any TV that does not nd its matching Wi-Fi Zone # in the TLX le,
but does nd the global Wi-Fi Zone 100, will be congured with the global access point login data.
Refer to the Cloud Conguration Tool User Guide for further information on dening Wi-Fi Zones in the
Cloud Conguration Tool.
