  DIRECTV for Commercial Business

 

Using Parental Controls on DIRECTV

DIRECTV understands how important it is to have control over what your children watch on TV. The powerful "Locks and Limits" feature provides several options for monitoring your children’s access to DIRECTV programming:

• Lock out entire channels
• Set limited viewing times
• Allow viewing based on MPAA ratings or block specific movies
• Establish spending limits on pay per view

Using the Locks and Limits feature is easy. By selecting "Profiles" from the "menu" button, you will see your options. Once you select your option just follow the simple on-screen directions. Once you have your controls in place, you can access any of the programming that you want to watch by entering your personal identification (PIN) number.

For a demo, tune in to DIRECTV BASICS on channel 201 and learn how to setup Locks and Limits if you have the HUGHES or RCA receiver models.
