The family tablet is accessible to every family member, even children can use it at any time without
the parent having to attend. Therefore, the tablet should be assigned to a user with a restricted
protection profile to ensure maximum protection during unattended use. If a parent wants to use the
tablet, the Parental Control protection can temporarily be changed or switched off by changing the
user of the device. A PIN must be entered for the user change. Once the parent has finished using
the device, the user should be reset to the original owne, or the Internet access for the device should
be completely blocked.
Example 2:
A parent's smartphone is always owned by that parent. It is also protected against unauthorized use
by a system password. The children can never use this smartphone unattended. In this case, it is not
necessary to assign an explicit user or a Protection profile to the device.

Three easy steps
The following steps must be carried out to activate Parental Control for your home network:
Create an eBlocker user for all family members (see section 8.2.4).
Assign the appropriate protection profile to each user. The eBlocker provides sample
profiles that can be adapted to your needs. Or you can set up additonal protection profiles
yourself (see section 8.2.7).
Assign a main user to all devices that should be protected by Parental Control (see section
8.2.11). It is possible to change the active user of a device at any time by entering an
individual user PIN (see section 8.2.18).
8.2.4
Create a new user
Navigate to the “eBlocker Settings > Parental Control” and click on the page “User”.
If you have not used Parental Control yet, the list of users is empty. After you have created some
users, the page might look like this:
To create a new user, click
“Add User”. A dialog box (see below) opens. Enter a name and select a
Protection profile. In addition, you should assign a PIN to all users who are allowed to use another
device. For example, provide a PIN for all adults and the older children.
