Using the Wi-Fi Zoning Feature with Cloning Conguration
A location-specic Wi-Fi conguration / TLX le may be saved (Learned) from an individual STB as part of a
Master STB Setup and then be used during Teaching. First, the wireless network (i.e., the access point login
data) must be congured in the Master STB’s IP Environment Menu (see “Conguring a Wi-Fi Network
Connection” on page 59). Then, a Wi-Fi Zone # must be set in the Master STB (see “Set the TV Zone #
and/or Wi-Fi Zone # in the STB” below). If desired, a TV Zone # may also be set in the Master STB.
For example, if the Wi-Fi Zone # is set to 4 and the TV Zone # is set to 5 before Learning is initiated, after
Learning is completed, the Master STB’s Installer Menu prole will be saved with the Zone 5 assignment,
and within that Installer Menu prole, the access point login data for wireless networking (i.e., SSID, security
type, and security key) will be saved with a Wi-Fi Zone 4 assignment. In order to congure the Target STBs
with the proper Installer Menu prole and access point login data, you must set both the TV Zone # and the
Wi-Fi Zone # in the Target STBs accordingly before transferring (Teaching) the Master STB Setup. See “Set
the TV Zone # and/or Wi-Fi Zone # in the STB” below. Also, see “Cloning Procedures” on pages 43 to 48 for
additional information on the cloning processes. If the Wi-Fi Zone # in the STB is set to 0 (default), the STB
will not obtain access point login data from the Installer Menu prole with which it is congured unless the
prole contains the global Wi-Fi Zone 100. Similarly, any STB that does not nd its matching Wi-Fi Zone #
in the TLX le, but that does nd the global Wi-Fi Zone 100, will be congured with the global access point
login data.
Set the TV Zone # and/or Wi-Fi Zone # in the STB
You can set the TV Zone # and/or the Wi-Fi Zone # in the EZ-Manager Wizard (see “EZ-Manager Wizard”
on pages 16 to 25) or, if the STB is in Pass-through Mode, via the STB’s setup menus as described below.
Note that the following procedure can only be performed while the STB is in Pass-through Mode. You will
also be able to specify a Label (North, South, East, West) and Room Number for this STB, if desired.
1. Turn ON the STB/display panel.
2. Press MENU on the Installer Remote, and use the arrow navigation keys to select/highlight the
General menu option. Then, press OK.
3. In the General Menu, use the Up/Down arrow keys to select Room Info, and then press OK.
4. In the Room Info screen, complete the appropriate elds as described below. Use the Up/Down arrow
keys on the Installer Remote to navigate between each of the elds.
• Wi-Fi Zone: Enables you to set a Wi-Fi Zone # so that the STB can be congured with a particular
access point’s login data for wireless networking. Login data (i.e., SSID, security type, and security
key) may be provided in a TLX le to be used for conguration.
To assign a Wi-Fi Zone, select/highlight the Wi-Fi Zone eld and press OK. Then, use the Left/Right
arrow keys to specify the desired Wi-Fi Zone # (1–99). Press OK when you are nished.
• TV Zone: Enables you to set a TV Zone # so that the STB can be congured with Installer Menu and/or
STB Setup Menu settings intended only for the assigned Zone. The Installer Menu and/or STB Setup
Menu settings may be provided in a TLX le to be used for conguration. If the STB is being congured
for FTG Mode, the TV Zone # setting also allows the STB to omit channels that have been restricted in
the FTG Channel Map (see “FTG Channel Map Zone Restrictions” on page 69).
To change the TV Zone, select/highlight the TV Zone eld and press OK. Then, use the Left/Right
arrow keys to specify the desired TV Zone # (0–8). Press OK when you are nished.
