EU RED Certification PIN Number

#1

Just seen the release notes for the latest firmware about the mandatory PIN number.

What about people not in the EU do they have to put up with this inconvenience?

I don’t want it, I just like to turn on and be straight to my music. Can the pin number be removed later in the menu?

Also for example if say an elderly person sets this pin number then maybe doesn’t use the system for a couple months. This person has then forgotten the PIN, how to gain access again? Does it need factory reset? How to do this if you don’t have access to the system?

In my opinion, this PIN code only needs to be entered once after it’s requested after the update. After that, it doesn’t seem to ask for it again on subsequent launches of the player.

I confirm, no code request when using the reader

Does it ask for it after a cold start? For example turning on after it’s been fully disconnected from the mains power supply for a period of time.

Unfortunately, the EU RED Certification PIN remains valid outside of the EU.

If you’ve forgotten your PIN, you can reset it by resetting your Rose device to factory settings.
Rose device–>Settings–>System settings–>Factory reset

Dear HiFi Rose Support,

I am using the RS130 together with my iPhone as a controller. Every time I power on the RS130 with the remote control, I have to walk up to the unit and manually enter the PIN code before I can use my iPhone.

This feels quite inconvenient, since the whole idea is to be able to control the device remotely. Is it really necessary to enter the PIN every time after power on? Is there any setting that allows me to save the PIN, disable it at startup, or use another method to unlock the unit automatically?
I would really appreciate your advice on this matter.

Best regards,

Göran Stierna

He never asked me for the Pin code when turning on or off standby (RS130)
