Using the System
When You Have Locked the Receiver
• If you try to access a locked item or open the Locks menu, the receiver
displays a message prompting you to enter the password.
• The receiver allows you three tries to enter the correct password. If you fail
to enter the correct password, the receiver does not allow more tries for
several minutes.
• If you enter the correct password, you can access the locked item or open
the
Locks menu.
• If you exit a locked item or close the Locks menu, you must enter the
password to access the item.
Locking and Unlocking the Receiver
You must lock the receiver for any receiver Locks you set to take effect. To lock
the receiver, you must first create a password. If you forget your password, you
will need to speak with a Customer Service Representative. If you have a
Personal Identification Number (PIN), you will need to give it to the Customer
Service Representative. See page 101 for information on PINs.
1. Press the MENU button to display the
Main Menu.
2. Select the
Locks option to display the Locks menu.
Note: If the receiver displays a message prompting you to enter a
password, the receiver has already been locked.
Note: If you want to unlock the receiver or any specific lock, use the
password for the TV output you’re watching. For example, use TV1’s
password to unlock TV1’s locks and TV2’s password for TV2’s locks.
The locks you set for
TV2 in Dual Mode are not available in
Single Mode. When using the receiver in Single Mode, if the
programming you select is not appropriate for all viewers on
remote TV(s), be sure to disable
Shared View (see page 51 for
instructions).
