Changing the Lock Level
Receiver lock levels are password-protected. When an attempt is made to change the lock
level setting, a password prompt is displayed. After the correct password is entered, you
can change the lock level setting. If lock level 3 is currently set and
MENU button is
pressed, a pop-up window is displayed with a password prompt. After the correct pass-
word is entered, the Main Menu appears, and the receiver Lock Level is automatically set
to Level 0.
If the incorrect password is entered (any lock level setting), a message box appears on-
screen to confirm an invalid password entry, and access to the Main Menu (in the case of
lock level 3), or to the lock levels option is denied. A Password prompt also appears
when changing the password.

Enter a valid lock level (number) and then press

0.
A pop-up window appears for entering the current password.

A virtual channel displayed for 20 seconds or more automati-
cally becomes the current (Last) channel. As Lock Level 3
disables most Lock Level 0 functions (including channel
changes), perform this action before changing the current
Lock Level setting to 3).
Menu options appear grayed-out if disabled by the current lock level setting.
