when used with the software.

        (3) The parental lock capabilities must be able to identify the classification code that applies to a television program by using the program classification information for the program.

        (4) The parental lock capabilities must be able to identify the classification code that applies to datacasting content by using the program classification information for the content.

        (5) The parental lock capabilities must be able to be set by the user of the domestic digital television receiver so that the user can choose to make the receiver block any of the following:
           (a) television programs and datacasting content with a classification code of PG or higher;
           (b) television programs and datacasting content with a classification code of M or higher;
           (c) television programs and datacasting content with a classification code of MA or higher.

       10  Standard – domestic digital television receiver (amplifiers and distribution devices)

        (1) For subsection 130B(1) of the Act, this section sets out a technical standard for a domestic digital television receiver that:
           (a) is an amplifier or distribution device used in the installation of antenna systems that support terrestrial reception of broadcasting services, datacasting services or both; and
           (b) is capable of receiving a service that was transmitted using coded orthogonal frequency‑division multiplexing (COFDM), using either of the following modulation techniques:
              (i) quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK); or
              (ii) quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM); and
           (c) is designed to demodulate or decode the service and then remodulate or re‑encode the service; and
           (d) is designed to use COFDM to distribute the service to one or more other domestic digital television receivers connected to the amplifier or distribution device, which use either of the following modulation techniques when receiving the service:
               (i) QPSK; or
              (ii) QAM.

            Note: Subsection 130B(1) of the Act applies in relation to domestic reception equipment. A domestic digital television receiver is domestic reception equipment.

        (2) The amplifier or distribution device must include in the distributed service the program classification information necessary to enable parental lock capabilities to operate in the connected receivers mentioned in paragraph (1)(d).

       11  Exemptions

         For subsection 130B(7) of the Act, the domestic reception equipment mentioned in the following table is exempt in relation to this instrument from subsections 130B(2) and (3) of the Act:
Item  Domestic reception equipment
 1    A domestic digital television receiver of a kind that was supplied for the first time before the Broadcasting and Datacasting Services (Parental Lock) Technical Standard 2010 (the original standard) applied, in accordance with section 6 of the original standard, including:
          (a) a particular model of domestic digital television receiver that was supplied by a wholesaler to a retailer before the original standard applied; and
          (b) a domestic digital
