LISTS & LIMITS

Parent Approved Channel List

The Parent Apprv channel list enables you to limit access to channels by creating a list of acceptable channels, and then locking the system.

When the system is locked, the Parent Apprv list overrides all other channel lists, and requires that you enter the four-digit system password to view an unapproved channel.

Note that when you enter the system password to view an unapproved channel, all spending, ratings, and channel limits remain unlocked until you turn off the receiver (see “Locking the System” for more information).

Selecting a Channel List to Use

When you turn on the DSS receiver, the unit defaults to the “Normal” channel list. You can easily change the channel list by pressing the FAV•INPUT button on the remote to scroll through the available channel lists (Normal, FAV A, FAV B, and FAV C). The active channel list is indicated in the channel banner at the top of the screen (which appears when you change channels or press DISPLAY on the remote).

Locking the System

You can lock the system in order to put into effect the ratings, spending, and channel limits you have set up. In addition, when you lock the system, no one can modify any of these setting without first entering the four-digit system password.

1. Point to Lock System and press MENU•SELECT.

Enter a four-digit system password to lock the system.
