Understandinìì the SmartLock™ Control

'"f 'he SmartLock feature is an inte-

J grated circuit that receives arid

processes data sent by broadcasters,

or other program providers, that contain program content advisories. When programmed by the viewer, a TV with SmartLock can respond to

the content advisories and block program content that may be found objectionable (such as offensive language, violence, sexual situa tions, etc.}. This is a great feature to censor the type of viewing children may watch.

Over the next few pages you'll learn how to block channels and

certain rated programming. Below Is a brief explanation of some terms and ratings you will find in the SmartLock feature.

SmartLock offers various BLOCKING OPTION controls from which to choose:

MASTER DISABLE: This is what

might be called the "master switch" for SmartLock. When in the ON position, ALL blocking/censoring is turned off (or disabled). When in the OFF position, ALL blocking based on specifically blocked settings will take place.

BLOCK UNRATED: ALL unrated

programs based on the Movie Ratings or Parental (TV) Guidelines can be blocked if this feature is set to ON and the MASTER DISABLE feature is set to OFF.

BLOCK NO RATINGS: ALL pro

gramming with NO content advisory data can be blocked if this feature is set to ON and the MASTER DIS ABLE feature is set to OFF.

After an access code has been pro grammed, you can block up to 5 individual channels. But more than

just blocking channels, certain

blocking options exist which will block programming based on ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures Association of America and TV broadcasters. (See description of rat ings on this page.)

CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game. Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen, can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, etc.) could leave an image permanently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF, Regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.

Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds, then reinsert plug into outlet and push POWER button again.

Check that outlet is not on a wall switch. Be sure fuse is not blown on AC Power strip.

Cleaning and Care

• To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning,

• When cleaning the TV screen take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface (avoid wearing jewelry or using anything abrasive). Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even, easy, vertical strokes when cleaning.

• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool clear water. Use a clean dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces,

• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring of the cabinet finish.

Page 44

Glossary of Telfmsion Terms

Coaxial Cable • A single solid antenna wire normally matched with a metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes)

directly onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.

Closed Caption • Broadcast standard which allows you to read the voice content of television programs on the TV screen. Designed to help the hearing impaired this feature uses onscreen

"text boxes" to show dialogue and conversations while the TV

program is in progress. Direct Audio/Video Inputs • Located on the rear of the TV these

connectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input of

audio and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) in order to receive higher picture resolution and offer sound connection options.

Identify • Method by which a remote control searches and finds an operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable Converter). Once the code has been "identified" then the TV remote can operate and send commands to the other product.

On Screen Displays (OSQ) • Refers to the wording or messages generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specif ic feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

Menu • An onscreen listing of feature controls shown on the Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.

Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) • The broadcast stan dard that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.

PIP (Picture In Picture) • Allows viewing of different programs (or picture sources) on the TV screen at the same time. PIP will also let you swap the pictures, move the PIP picture to any of the four comers, and even freeze the picture until you shut it off.

Programming • The procedure of adding or deleting channel numbers into the Television’s memory circuits. In this way the Television “remembers” only the locally available or desired channel numbers and skips over any unwanted channel num bers.

Remote Sensor Window • A window or opening found on the

Television control panel through which infrared remote control

command signals are received. Setup Mode • Automatic feature control settings made by the

TV. Designed for first time setup and use. Settings for signal connections (antenna or cable TV), plus channel program memory are held in the TV's memory (even if the set is unplugged and moved to a new location.)

Second Audio Program (SAP) • Another or additional audio channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound

(MTS) broadcast standard. The most frequently proposed use

for SAP is the simultaneous bilingual broadcast of TV program

material. Status • Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel num

ber is currently being viewed. Status can also be used to clear the Television of on screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the displays to “time out” or automatically disap pear from the screen).

Twin Lead Wire • The more commonly used name for the two

strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and out door antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna wire requires an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm Input terminals designed into the more recent Televisions and VCRs.
