User Manual for
Cisco PDS3121 Set-Top Box
PIN NUMBER
You can change the PIN number by selecting the Change PIN option, which you will find in the
Settings > Viewer settings
> Accounts
menu. You can use it to change the master account PIN number. When you open this menu for the first time,
the set-top box will ask you to enter the default PIN number (1234).
RESET SETTINGS
If you wish to revert the set-top box to default/factory settings, you can do so in the
Settings > Technical settings >
System information > Reset settings
menu. To select this option from the menu, you will need to enter the PIN number.
Note:
If you revert to default/factory settings, all your settings, reminders and planned recordings will be deleted.
CHANNEL BLOCKING
If you wish, you can block access to certain channels. Channels can be blocked in the
Settings > Viewer settings > Channel
blocking
menu. The same menu is also used to unblock channels. To access the Channel blocking feature, you need to enter
the PIN number. If you blocked a channel, a message will open together with the window for entering the PIN number.
The channel can also be blocked in the Options window, which you can open by pressing the <Opt> button when viewing
programs.
PARENTAL CHECK
Parental check allows you to set age ratings (6, 10, 12, 16 or 18). This means that the PIN code needs to be entered to view
programs that are rated as unsuitable for certain ages. You can also disable parental check. Parental control is enabled in
the
Settings > Viewer settings > Accounts
menu.
