passcode if you were tuned to a Locked channel before power
was turned off. If the passcode is not entered, the SXM-100
will tune to the Preview channel (channel 1) instead of the
channel it was tuned to when power was turned off.
When power is cycled, either warm (using the POWER button)
or cold (removing AC power), the SXM-100 will try to tune to
the channel it was on before power was turned off. If there is
some problem (see Display Advisories, page 40, Channel
Unavailable), the unit will tune to channel 1, the Preview
channel.
The internal microprocessor is always running, even when the
unit appears to be off. If Forced Tune Events are
programmed, the unit will be in a stand-by mode when it
appears to be off. In this mode, the internal tuner module is
powered up and receiving and decoding the signal from the
satellite for the time information. This way, the unit will know
the correct time so it can execute the next Forced Tune Event
to turn on.
Parental Control
Whether using the SXM-100 in the home or business, there
may be some channels which you wish to limit access to. They
may have profane or graphic language or may simply not be
desired or appropriate for your business. Channels which
contain language which some people may find offensive have
channel names beginning with “xL”. To prevent access to
unwanted channels, there is a Restricted Mode function with
passcode protection. The passcode is a 4 digit number entered
with the remote control. Channels may be individually
restricted by using the Channel Locking feature in the Setup
menus. When a channel is marked as Locked
and
Restricted
Mode is turned on, you will be prompted to enter the passcode
if you try to tune to a locked channel . The channel cannot be
tuned to until the correct passcode is entered. If the passcode
is not entered within 10 to 15 seconds, the SXM-100 will
ignore the channel change request and remain on the
previously selected channel. If you enter an incorrect
passcode, you will be prompted to try again. If you press any
non-numeric key, the passcode entry will be aborted and the
SXM-100 will remain on the previously selected channel. Once
the passcode is entered, all locked channels will be accessible
