CAMPORT Operation (Stand-Alone)
When Camport Auto Sense is enabled as above, the TV’s source
will switch to the front video whenever a plug is inserted into
any of the front panel video inputs (either composite Video or
S-Video).
When the plug is removed, the TV will switch back to the previ-
ous channel or input source that the TV was using before the
plug was inserted. However, if any direct access to an RF chan-
nel or Aux channel is requested while the camport is active,
then, when the camport plug is removed, the TV will switch to
the last requested channel. Source changes using any Source
Keys (INPUT) are ignored. Channel Up, Channel Down and
Flashback Commands are not direct access tuning commands
and they are also ignored.

CAMPORT Operation (PPV)
The operation will be similar to that of the Stand-Alone mode.
However, the PPV providers may send different commands to
the TV for the same user commands. For instance, some
providers will always send a direct tune command when it
receives a channel up/down or a flashback command while
other PPV providers will just send a key command.
