Profiles: The DIRECTV Setup
The DIRECTV Setup menu item is only accessible 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.
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.
3. Use the arrow buttons to highlight a DIRECTV channel, and press OK to
remove (or replace) the check mark. To go directly to a certain channel, enter
its number using the digits on the remote control. Or, page through the list
using the channel up and down buttons.
Checkmarked items appear in the DIRECTV channel list. In other words, when you
select that profile and begin surfing through DIRECTV channels with the channel up
and down buttons, only the checkmarked channels will appear as you surf.
Selecting or deleting all DIRECTV Channels in a channel list
You might be able to save time when creating a DIRECTV channel list by using the
Select All Chans option or the Delete All Chans option to either add or delete all
channels before removing or adding individual channels.
Also, DIRECTV program providers may make additional channels available. To
prevent new channels from appearing in a profile channel list, choose Delete All
Chans and checkmark only the channels you want to appear in the list.
