Using the Menu System
Editing user profile names
The four user profiles – User 1 to User 4 – can be renamed for members of your
household. The Family and All Channels profiles cannot be renamed. You can
change the names of User 1 to User 4 profiles to anything you wish, using up to
eight letters and numbers.
1. Press the MENU button on your remote control (the main menu appears).
2. Highlight PROFILES and press SELECT (the Profiles menu appears).
3. Highlight the profile you wish to rename and press SELECT (the menu for
that user profile appears, with the Edit User Name item highlighted).
4. Press SELECT to start editing the user name for that profile (the Edit User
Name screen appears).
5. Type a new name for the user profile as described below:
• To type each letter or number in the new name, highlight a key on the
on-screen keyboard and press SELECT. Repeat this until you have typed
the entire name.
• If you need to erase letters, highlight the on-screen left arrow (near the
top-right corner of the keyboard) and press SELECT.
• To erase the entire name, highlight Clear and press SELECT.
6. When you have finished typing the user profile name, highlight Back and
press SELECT.
Editing channel lists
Editing channel lists simplifies your channel surfing by removing unwanted
channels from your channel list. When a profile is active, its channel list
determines:
• which channels are skipped when you press the CH+/CH- buttons to scroll
through channels, and
• which channels appear in the Program Guide.
You can tune to a channel directly by pressing the 0 - 9 buttons on your remote
control even when that channel is removed from the profile's channel list.
The Family profile is the master profile—channel restrictions set in the Family
profile apply to the entire DIRECTV
® System (when the system is locked),
regardless of which user profile is active. Channels that are removed from the
channel list in the Family profile are “blocked” for all profiles—that is, these
channels cannot be viewed even when tuned directly using the 0 - 9 buttons on
your remote.
