Locks & Limits
provides settings to help you control the viewing restrictions of
DIRECTV
®
programming. When accompanied by the channel lists, these limits
provide a great degree of control. The DIRECTV
®
Receiver must be locked for
the TV Timer, Rating and Spending limits to be enforced.
Locking & unlocking
the system
When you first receive your satellite system, it will be unlocked; (i.e., no limits
or restrictions are in effect). You must lock the system to enforce the limits
(spending, ratings, TV timer, and “Family” favorite list).
Note:
Once the DIRECTV Receiver is locked, only existing
Family
list
channels will be accessible. If the
Family
list does not contain any channels,
no channels can be viewed without first unlocking the receiver. To avoid
this, verify the contents of the
Family
list before locking the receiver.
How to lock the system
When you
SELECT
the
Lock
button, the
LOCK SYSTEM
pop-up panel appears.
1. Enter a four-digit passcode using the remote control.
Press
Cancel
to clear the locking
process.
2. Highlight and
SELECT
OK.
3. Enter the code again to confirm.
4. Highlight and
SELECT
OK
.
If you forget your four-digit code, you
must call DIRECTV.
Once you select
OK
,
the satellite receiver is locked. You must enter the passcode
to unlock it. A lock symbol icon appears at the top of every menu screen to
remind you that the system is locked.
