What you’ll be doing by the end of this section: Using the Xsight™ Touch your way, all at the touch of a button.

How to make this remote all yours

The Xsight™ Touch has powerful customization tools to make this remote truly your own. Favorites gives you access to your Favorite Channels and settings for the whole family. You can choose up to 72 favorite channels. Profiles lets you group your favorite channels and remote settings for each family member or type of programming.

To use Favorites and Profiles, first build your list of favorite channels for the entire family—this list includes everything: all of Mom’s favorites, all of Dad’s...anything you plan to include in your profiles. Then you can choose from this list to create the individual profiles. But remember: a channel must be in your favorites in order to be in a profile.

Creating your family favorites

The first step is creating a list of favorite channels for the entire family. Once you’ve created this list, you can create lists for separate profiles.

If you’re not already signed in:

1.Double-click the EZ-RC™ Remote Control Setup Wizard icon on your PC desktop and sign in.

2.Connect your remote and click Continue.

3.Select Edit an existing setup you’ve saved here before and click Start. (If you’ve made changes on your remote, press Upload and edit…) Continue with the rest of the directions in this section.
