Parental Control; Receiver Settings; Channel Scanning And Updating - Tele System TS6512HD User Manual

4 Receiver settings

The first time installation procedure (chapter 3) will allow the receiver to be used with its basic functions.
However the receiver offers many more advanced features and options that are illustrated in the following
sections.
4.1 Password
To access settings and events locked by the Parental Control (par. 4.2), a password has to be entered. The
password is defined by the end-user at the first time installation (cap. 3), but it can be changed by pressing
MENU and selecting the System Setup - Parental Control menu.
CAUTION
If you forget your personal password, you have to reset the device by using Tools - Factory Setting menu.

4.2 Parental Control

The Parental Control protects children by the viewing of sensitive contents. When an event is broadcasted
with a parental rating equal or higher than the parental lock level defined on receiver menu, a system
message will notify that the channel is locked. To see that channel, you have to enter the password (see par.
4.1).
The factory set level is Age=18 and it can be changed by the user on System Setup - Parental Lock -
Channel Lock menu.
4.3 Advanced menu protection (Hotel Function)
The Hotel Function is a hidden utility, which consists in an advanced protection of the receiver. It allows to
enter the main menu only after typing the password.
In order to enable/disable that function, on viewing mode press RED button and input the special code 1688
by using the numerical buttons of the remote control.

4.4 Channel scanning and updating

The first time guided installation procedure runs a channel scan and saves any channels available at that
time. However later scans may become necessary if, for instance, a new channel becomes available or
when an existing channel changes frequency.

To access the channel scan function from the viewing mode, press MENU on the remote control to open the
main menu, select Installation and then got to one of the following submenu:
1. Auto Scan: an automatic scan of all digital terrestrial channels through whole frequency range. Define
the FTA Only parameter (No for all channels or Yes for Free to air) and the type of Action (Update or
Reinstall). Press OK on Search to start the scan.
CAUTION
When a reinstallation is run, the previous existing channel list will be lost.
2. Channel Scan (for expert users): set all needed parameters displayed on video related to the interested
RF channel, then select Search and press OK.
4.4.2 Standby channel updating
In standby mode, this receiver is set to search daily for new available channels, at the exact Time defined on
Tools - Automatic Upgrade Setting - Automatic Channel List Update menu. Through this menu, it's
possible to modify the searching Time, disable the In Standby Mode option and even set the searching In
Operation Mode.
4.5 Clock setting
