Clone Programmer Troubleshooting

Warning: Do not connect a clone programmer to the STB1000 MPI/GAME CONTROL port
while the STB is in LodgeNet PPV Mode, as this will damage the clone programmer.

Reset Clone Programmer

After Static Shock

After replacing exhausted batteries (LT2002 only), or if the clone programmer behaves strangely after
a static shock:

TLL-1100A: Turn the TLL-1100A OFF and then ON.

LT2002: Use a paper clip or similar instrument inserted through the small hole marked RESET to
activate the internal reset switch and restore normal operation.

After a reset, check the real-time clock setting. It may be necessary to reset the clone programmer
clock from an STB containing the correct time.

Note: For both Master and Target STB1000s—The STB EBL must be in Pass-through Mode.

• After cloning operations are complete, unplug the TLL-1100A/LT2002 from the STB.
• If the display panel does not show a picture on the (blank) screen after a few seconds, just change channels.
