V - Chip (US only)
The Telecommunications Act of 1996 in USA requires that every television made, starting in
1998, must be equipped with the technological device named V - Chip. The V - Chip can block
certain rated television shows off television (if chosen) so children cannot watch programs
that their parents do not approve. With this device, program-rating information will be
transmitted along with the television signal, and be decoded by the chip in each television.
The chip will then compare the rating codes to values preset by the viewer, which is meant to
be the parents. If the rating codes are higher than the preset values, the television signal will
be blocked, and a blank screen will be displayed.
SyncMaster 240MP have this feature and you can adjust the V - Chip setting via OSD. Use
arrow keys on the remote controller or control buttons on the front cabinet of the monitor to
change the setting.
1. Select V - Chip on OSD, then enter 4 digits of pin number.
- Initial pin number is “0000”
- If you enter an incorrect pin number “Incorrect” message will be displayed for 3 seconds.
