Abstract
The present disclosure relates to such systems and methods for personalizing an electrical device interface. In one arrangement, personalization involves presenting a variety of different default interface options to the user, the interfaces being configured to control operation of an electrical device, receiving selection of a default interface made by a user, and presenting the selected interface to the user. Several other examples of interface personalization are described in detail in this disclosure.

9. A method for personalizing an electrical device interface, comprising:
-
presenting a tutorial regarding the control and operation of an electrical device to a user;
providing the user with an option to modify an interface used to control the electrical device by adding one or more commands to the interface relevant to the operation described in the tutorial; and
reconfiguring the interface if the user opts to modify the interface. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11)

13. A method for personalizing an electrical device interface, comprising:
-
receiving commands selected by the user with the interface;
monitoring the frequency with which the various commands are selected;
providing the user with an option to modify the interface based upon the frequency of use of the commands; and
reconfiguring the interface so as to provide easier access to the frequently used commands if the user opts to modify the interface. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15)

21. A method for personalizing electrical device interfaces, comprising:
-
receiving selection of a first interface for use in controlling a first electrical device;
presenting a user with the option of reconfiguring a second interface for use in controlling a second electrical device such that the second interface is similar to the first interface; and
reconfiguring the second interface if the user opts to reconfigure it. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24)
