Parental Control Tab
Overview
The Parental Control tab (FIG. 51) provides parental control of DVD content. By default parental
control is disabled. The Master password is required to enable or disable parental control, and a
Parental Control password is applied to each rating level (G, PG, PG-13, R and NC-17).
Password protected content can be enabled or disabled only on a global basis. At the point where
playback is about to begin, the system checks to see if parental control is enabled. If it is, then the
rating category is displayed and the system prompts you to enter the password.
If the password provided matches the password for that rating category (or any lower rating
category) then playback will begin.
 The password can be reset via the Administration Menu on the MAX server. The
password can contain any combination of alpha-numeric characters, but cannot contain
the pipe character ( | ).
 If content has been paused for a set number of minutes, the system will require you to
enter the password again to continue playback.
