Overview
To insure complete coverage for all TV programs, (movies and regular TV shows) choose a rating for
MPAA, from the selections below AND choose ratings from the TV Parental Guidelines Rating System
on the next page, using the Age Block option for General Audiences, and for Children. In addition to
those, you may wish to add additional restrictions from the Content Block menu. See the Parental
Control menu, and submenus example on the next page.
Things To Consider Before Setting Up Parental Control
Determine which rating you consider acceptable to the viewer. (For example, if you choose TV-PG, all
more restrictive ratings will be automatically blocked; the viewer will not be able to see: TV-PG, TV-14, or
TV-MA rated programming.)
Block program “Content” based on individual parameters such as: Strong Dialog, Mature Language, Sex
Scenes, Violence Scenes, or Fantasy Violence Scenes; in the Content Blk option.
How many hours do you want Parental Control to be active? You can set the Hours option for up to 12
hours.
Select a secret password; in the Set Password option. Use the number keys on the remote. Don’t forget
the password, it is the only way you can access the Parental Control menu and change rating
selections, or turn Parental Control off.
Do you want Parental Control to be active all the time? If not, you can turn it on or off; with the Lock
On/Off option.
Note
Reset Parental Control Block Hours to Zero and Cancel Password
This provides the institution staff and the installer a means to reset the TV to normal operation, if a
patient has either forgotten the password or has left Parental Control Block active after departing.
On the installer’s remote control, press and hold down MENU until the menu disappears (about 6
seconds). Immediately press 9, 8, 7, 6 and then CC.
This will reset the Block Hours to Zero and cancel the current 4-number password.
You can set different Parental Control
viewing restrictions for general audiences
and for children - - both can be active at
the same time.
Simply specifying one content block such
as Sex Scenes, will not automatically
block another content in the programs
from appearing.
You cannot disable Parental Control by
disconnecting the TV from power. Block
hours remaining will be retained if power
is lost or power cord is disconnected.
The AUX input source can also be
blocked.
Parental Control offers the user a wide variety of options and settings that restrict or “block” the
programming that can appear on the TV. Parental control allows the user the capability of defining which
program rating they consider acceptable, to the younger or more sensitive viewer. The AUX input can also
be blocked. It can be preset and turned either on or off by the user who specifies a secret 4-number code, the
password. The number of hours blocked are specified. General audience and children viewer blocks can
both be programmed into the TV’s memory. Viewer ratings are specified for both TV and the motion picture
industry; both rating systems can be used. The ratings are based mainly on the ages of children
