1. A method for configuring operation of an electronic device coupled to a receiver/decoder circuit, the receiver/decoder circuit (RDC) adapted to wirelessly communicate with a personal digital key (PDK), the method comprising: wirelessly detecting the PDK with the RDC; receiving from the PDK a PDK identification code identifying the PDK; determining one or more available functions executable by the electronic device; receiving a profile from the PDK, the profile stored in the PDK and the profile including biometric data associated with a user; and configuring operation of the electronic device based on the one or more available functions executable by the electronic device, the PDK identification code and the user associated with the received profile, responsive to authenticating the PDK based on the PDK identification code and the user based on the biometric data.
