Is the PIN for my Roku account also used to access the parental control features on my Roku TV™?
No. The PIN on your Roku TV is created and managed in a different location from the PIN for your Roku account. You can choose to create each PIN using the same set of numbers, but this must be done independently.
What is each PIN used for?

Your Roku TV PIN prevents unauthorized viewers from accessing restricted content when watching the antenna input.
