Q: Why do I need to enter a tuner code for my television to receive over-the-air broadcasts?
A: The access code input enables Westinghouse to accurately count the end-users who seek to enable the ATSC tuner, for purposes of royalty reporting (but for the end-user, this activation is free). This looks to the future of television design: Digital televisions are beginning to include installable hardware or software features.
pass code's are typically setup by the user that sets up the tv. So, you could start my talking with that person first. If that person is not available, then you might need to factory reset your tv and setup it up again, provide the code to the tv and then write the code down (or email it to yourself) so you'll have it for future reference if you need it.
Hello zmprice, I need a bit more information so I can better assist you, what is the model # and serial # of the TV? Depending on the model # if it is an older model # they normally use Sony codes, whereas if it is a newer Westinghouse TV it probably uses Samsung codes.
