Is Parental Controls and Access Control Mutually Exclusive?

(RBK852 AX6000, on firmware V4.6.3.16_2.0.51)

 

Does having Parental Controls turned on turn off Access Control?  From the router webpage, on Advanced -> Security -> Access Control, the site shows "To use Access Control, please use the Orbi App.".  However, there is nowhere in the app to get to Access Control.

 

I read on another thread that Access Control may get turned off when you activate Parental Controls.  Does anyone know if that's true?  If not, how do I get to Access Controls (either in the app or on the site)?
