Locking Channels

The Sirius module in the AVR600 has a parental lockout feature which allows you to assign a 4-digit code to any channels you do not wish to be generally available to users.

Channels can be locked out individually by pressing and holding the MODE key. ‘Lock?’ also appears on the lower line of the On Screen Display. Pressing Oconfirms and applies the parental lock to the channel and the display returns to the channel name.

If a locked channel is selected, the audio will be muted and the user prompted on the display to enter the unlocking code. ‘Unlock code :____’ is displayed.

The default unlock code is 0000.

If the code is entered correctly the audio for this channel unmutes. If the code is not entered correctly, the previously played channel is re-selected.

To remove the parental lock from one of the locked channels (so that the unlocking code is no longer required to listen to them), navigate to the channel, select it and enter the unlocking code to unmute the channel. Press and hold the Mkey until the display shows ‘Unlock ?’. Press Oto remove the lock from the channel.

To change your locking code, in TUn device mode on the remote, press and hold the B key.

NOTE

The locking code is reset to 0000 if a factory reset of the AVR600 is performed.

If the antenna is disconnected, the AVR600 displays ‘ANTENNA ERROR’.

During the channel map update, the message ‘Updating channels - xx%’ is displayed. Note that audio is muted until the update is complete. When complete, the AVR600 retunes to the original channel and restores the audio.
