Prompt Subscribers for a PIN on the LED
Introduction
The Enable PIN on LEDs option allows you to display the message “PIN” on the
LED on the set-top (for those that have LED displays) when a subscriber tunes to a
channel that requires a PIN. This message prompts the subscriber to enter a PIN. If
you do not enable this option, the LED on the set-top will display the channel
number or the time of day when the PIN entry screen is displayed.
Recommended Setting
Disable this feature to cause the set-top to display the time of day or channel number
on the LED as configured for this set-top.
