Chapter 6: User profiles Editing channel lists You can edit channel lists to simplify your channel surfing by removing channels that you never watch from your channel list. Editing a channel list for a user profile has two effects : • When that user profile is the active profile, it sets which channels are skipped as you change channels with the CH+ and CH- buttons on your remote control. • When that user profile is the active profile, it determines which channels appear and do not appear in the Program Guide. It is possible to tune to a channel directly by pressing the 0 - 9 buttons on your remote control even when that channel is removed from the channel list for that profile. 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 control. Here are the steps for editing a channel list: 1 Press the MENU button on your remote control. 2 Highlight the PROFILES menu item, then press the OK button. The PROFILES menu appears. 3 Highlight the profile containing the channel list you wish to edit (FAMILY, or USER 1 - 4), then press the OK button. The menu for that user profile appears. The Edit Channel List item is highlighted. Editing the FAMILY channel list changes channel access for all profiles. The ALL CHANNELS profile cannot be edited. 4 Press the OK button to start editing the channel list. The Edit Channel List screen appears. 67

Chapter 6: User profiles
Editing channel lists
You can edit channel lists to simplify your channel surfing by removing channels that
you never watch from your channel list. Editing a channel list for a user profile has
two effects :
•
When that user profile is the active profile, it sets which channels are skipped as
you change channels with the CH+ and CH- buttons on your remote control.
•
When that user profile is the active profile, it determines which channels appear
and do not appear in the Program Guide.
It is possible to tune to a channel directly by pressing the 0 - 9 buttons on your
remote control even when that channel is removed from the channel list for
that profile.
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 control.
Here are the steps for editing a channel list:
1
Press the MENU button on your remote control.
2
Highlight the
PROFILES
menu item, then press the OK button.
The
PROFILES
menu appears.
3
Highlight the profile containing the channel list you wish to edit (FAMILY,
or USER 1 - 4), then press the OK button.
The menu for that user profile
appears. The
Edit Channel List
item
is highlighted.
Editing the FAMILY channel list
changes channel access for all
profiles. The ALL CHANNELS profile
cannot be edited.
4
Press the OK button to start editing
the channel list.
The
Edit Channel List
screen appears.
