Chapter 6: User profiles
There are six user profiles you can choose:
FAMILY: The FAMILY user profile is the master profile for your DIRECTV®
USER 1 - USER 4: These four user profiles allow individuals in your household to create custom channel lists and custom screen appearances for their own use. These profiles can be renamed to identify them with members of your household. Ratings, spending, and channel restrictions set in the FAMILY profile still apply when one of these four user profiles is the active profile and the system is locked.
ALL CHANNELS: The ALL CHANNELS profile is the default user profile. The ALL CHANNELS profile cannot be edited.
When the current user profile is ALL CHANNELS and the system is locked, the ratings, spending, and channel restrictions set in the FAMILY profile still apply.
Once you have modified the channel lists in the other user profiles, you can use the Program Guide in the All CHANNELS profile to see a list of all channels available on your DIRECTV® System (both viewable and blocked channels).
Editing user profile names
The four profiles named User 1 - 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 - 4 profiles to anything you wish, using up to eight letters and numbers.
