Using the Profiles

ABOUT PROFILES

When you select Profiles from the main menu, you can create four different profiles

in addition to the default “Family” profile. You can set up specific channels, rating

limits, and spending limits for each profile. After you’ve set up these profiles, press

the WHO button on the remote control to scroll through your profiles and access a

certain one.

But first, personalize a profile by entering a name.

1. Select Profiles from the main menu.

2. Select a profile to edit: User 1, User 2, User 3, or User 4.

3. Select Edit User Name from the next menu.

4. Use the up, down, and right arrows on the remote control to find and select a

letter.

You can personalize each profile.

To continue editing the profile, select DIRECTV Setup (if you have ordered

DIRECTV

programming) or TV Setup. The following sections describe how to set

up these features.

THE DIRECTV SETUP

The DIRECTV Setup menu item only exists if you subscribe to DIRECTV

programming. Through this menu you can establish DIRECTV channel lists, set

spending limits, and set rating limits for DIRECTV

programs using the DIRECTV

Setup menu.

EDITING CHANNELS IN A DIRECTV LIST

You should create a DIRECTV channel list to establish which DIRECTV channels

the selected profile can access. To create the DIRECTV channel list:

1. Highlight and select a user name, then select DIRECTV Setup.

2. Highlight Edit Channels and press OK.

Use the MENU button

on the remote control to

bring up the main menu,

use the arrows to

highlight an option, and

press OK to select it.

If the main menu does

not appear, the remote

control might not be in

TV or DIRECTV mode.

Try pressing the TV or

DIRECTV button and

then MENU.

You can also set up

profiles as categories

instead of as users. For

example, name a profile

“Sports” and include

only sports channels in

the profile. Or, name it

“Movies,” include only

movie channels, and set

a rating and spending

limit for yourself or your

family.
