Set Up the Parental Control Feature on MR-DVR Client Set-Tops
After you have decided how to restrict viewing for the set-tops in your home,
set up a Parental Control PIN for each client set-top. All of the set-tops in your
system need a Parental Control PIN in order to view blocked programs. If you do
not plan to block programming or recordings, you do not need to set up a
Parental Control PIN.
On the Client Set-Top:
Selecting a Parental Control PIN
When selecting a number for the Parental Control PIN, keep the following in
mind:
• The PIN must contain four digits.
• You may use a PIN that is unique to each MR-DVR system set-top in your
home, or you may use the same PIN for all MR-DVR system set-tops.
• You may use a PIN that is the same or different from the pay-per-view PIN.
After you have selected a 4-digit number to use as a Parental Control PIN, set
up the PIN by following the steps on the next page. See “Setting or Changing the
Parental Control PIN.”
