How do you reactivate 'caller ID' on directv receiver

Landline is connected to receiver and we use to get the caller ID displayed when receiving landline calls. My wife disabled it by mistake but how do you turn it back on?

You can't caller id is dead as far as DTV is concerned newer receivers no longer have a phone jack and the software no longer supports it.

The HR44 Genie was allowed to use it until someone disables it. Older HR24 and below still have it.
