The DVD 47 is shipped from the factory with the

parental control system unlocked (no password is

required to view any DVD), and with the password set

to the four-digit code “1234.” To activate the system,

use the

⁄¤ Navigation Buttons n to highlight

the Parental Control Setting on the SYSTEM

SETUP submenu, and press the Enter Button

t. Select the “On” setting from the dropdown

menu, and the password screen will appear (see

Figure 5.) Make sure the dashes on the Password

line are highlighted, then enter the password code

using the Numeric Keys  and press the

Navigation Button n.

If you have entered the password correctly, the current

setting of the Rating line will be highlighted. You may

press the Enter Button t to display the ratings

dropdown menu. Select a new rating using the

⁄¤

Navigation Buttons n and the Enter Button t.

Figure 5

The first time you use the DVD 47, it is recommended

that you scroll down to the Change Password line and

press the Enter Button t to display the Change

Password screen. Use the Numeric Keys  to

enter your new password once at the New Password

line, and a second time at the Confirm Password line.

The DVD 47 will return to the screen shown in Figure

5, where you may then change the Ratings Setting.

Since you had previously entered a valid password,

you will not be required to enter a password again

before changing the rating.

However, once you press

the

‹› Navigation Button n and return to the

SYSTEM SETUP submenu, the new password

will take effect.

Disc Recognition: The setting for the Disc Recog-

nition feature, when turned on, allows you to pause

or stop a DVD-Video disc, remove it from the player

play another disc, and then resume playback of the

original disc at a later time from the point at which you

paused. When a previously played disc is reinserted in

the DVD 47, you will be presented with an on-screen

status message asking whether you wish to start play-

back from the beginning of the disc or resume at the

point where

you left off. Note that even when the setting

is activated,

you must press the Stop Button 4O

either once (Resume mode) or twice (Stop mode), but

not the Pause Button 3K. The unit may be

turned off between discs. The DVD 47 can store the

information for up to five DVDs at a time.

PBC Support: This setting controls the activation of

PBC (Play Back Control) Support for VCD discs. If you

plan to play VCD discs, which are a CD-ROM-based

format that predates DVD, we recommend that the

setting be turned ON. However, with PBC enabled,

the Repeat Track, Repeat Disc and Random functions

will not be available for VCDs.

Screen Saver: The DVD 47 offers a Screen Saver

option to protect your TV or video display from dam-

age that may occur if the player is left turned on with

the same still image for a period of time, as there is a

possibility that the image may be “burned” into some

display devices. This is particularly important for plasma

displays and some CRT devices. Set Screen Saver to

ON so that the DVD 47 will run the screen saver

when no action has been detected for either one or

five minutes. Press a desired command key on the

front panel or remote to “wake” the DVD 47 and

resume normal operation.

Show Angle Icon: Some DVDs are programmed

with multiple-angle capability, allowing you to view the

same scene from a different camera angle. Normally,

the angle icon will be displayed on screen during

those scenes to inform you that you may press the

Angle Button m to change to a different view. If

you would find the appearance of the icon on-screen

distracting, select the Show Angle Icon setting in the

System submenu, and set it to OFF. The Angle

Indicator E will appear in the front-panel display

whenever multiple angles are available, regardless of

whether the on-screen icon appears.

Closed Caption: This setting enables viewing of

closed caption messages, if they have been encoded

in the video material. Closed captions – text displays

of the program’s dialogue which are normally hidden

from view – are made available for the hearing-

impaired or others. Select the ON setting to activate

the DVD 47’s closed captioning decoder so that these

messages may be viewed.

Audio Setup Submenu

This submenu establishes the DVD’s configuration for

general audio settings, such as preferred language and

digital audio settings.

As with all setup menus, press the Setup Button j

to activate the main menu screen, and then press the

⁄¤ Navigation Buttons n until the AUDIO

SETUP icon is highlighted, and press the Enter

Button t again.

Figure 6

The following adjustments are available on the Audio

Setup menu:

Preferred Audio Language: This setting is used to

select the default language that will be used for pro-

gram playback. The factory default setting is English,

but you may choose French, Spanish, German or

Italian by making a selection from the dropdown

menu. To select a language other than those shown,

select OTHER from the dropdown menu and

press the Enter Button t. A screen will appear

with a list of language choices (see Figure 4). Use

the

⁄¤‹› Navigation Buttons n to select a

language. When the desired language is highlighted,

press the Enter Button t to set it as the preferred

audio language. If you wish to exit this screen without

selecting a language, use the

⁄¤‹› Navigation

Buttons n until the word RETURN at the

bottom of the screen is highlighted, and press the

Enter Button t to return to the AUDIO

SETUP screen.

This procedure selects a preferred audio program

language, but it will only be available when the disc

being played contains that language. The list of lan-

guages available on any given disc is always shown

on the disc jacket,

usually at the bottom of the back

cover. Note that the audio playback language may also

be changed at any time during playback using the

Audio Select Button c, as described on page 30,

but any changes made will only be effective during

playback of that disc.

Digital Output: This setting selects the digital audio

data stream that is routed to the Optical Digital

Output ¢ or the Coaxial Digital Output ∞.

Two choices are available:

• Bitstream, the default setting, outputs the

Dolby Digital or DTS signal, as selected from the

disc’s menu or by using the Audio Select Button

c, as explained on page 30. This setting should

be used when your receiver or processor is capable of

decoding signals in the Dolby Digital or DTS format.

• PCM outputs a standard PCM signal for decoding by

receivers or processors that are not capable of

decoding a Dolby Digital or DTS bitstream. This set-

ting enables 2-channel audio playback or matrix

decoding where available.
