User profile basics
If your DIRECTV ® HD Receiver is going to be used by more than one person in your
household, you should consider setting up user profiles for each user.
The Profiles section of the Menu system allows you to:
• Set ratings limits for the DIRECTV HD Receiver (applies to all
®
users).
• Set pay per view spending limits for the DIRECTV
(applies to all users).
• Edit channel lists for the DIRECTV System, and customized
lists for individual users.
• Change the color and translucency of the Menu and Guide
screens for each user profile.
• Set which user profile is currently active.
• Lock and unlock the system (controlling when the ratings limits,
spending limits, and channel restrictions are active).

User profiles
There are five user profiles you can choose:
Family: The Family user profile is the master profile for your DIRECTV
Receiver.
The ratings limits, channel restrictions, and pay per view spending
restrictions you set in the Family profile apply to all of the user profiles.
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: You can change the Screen color or Translucency in the preferences
of the set up menu.
