Select Closed Captioning
You can turn on or off the closed caption decoder
screen.You can also choose black or gray asthe
background color for the closed caption area.
IMPORTANT
The content of captions are determined by the
broadcaster. If your captions show strange
characters, misspellings, or odd grammar, it is
not a malfunction of theTV.
There are two types of captioning that broadcasters can send: standard and text.
Standard captioning follows the dialogue of the characters on-screen and displays in a small section
of the screen when the broadcaster is sending the closed captioning.
Text captioning often contains information such as weather or news. Text captioning blocks a
portion of the program that is on-screen.
YourTV can decode four different standard captioning signals and four different text captioning
signals from each TV station. However, each station may broadcast only one or two captioning
signals, or none at all.
When setting the decoder, you can choose to display:
one of four standard captioning signals ( CC I, CC2, CC3, CC4)
one of four text captioning signals (Text I,Text 2, Text 3, Text 4)
captions when mute (On if mute)
no captions when mute (Off)
If you select"On if mute" the standard captioning signal (CC I) will appear whenever you use the
MUTE button. If you set the decoder to a"standard" caption setting or"On if mute" and tune to a
broadcaster that is not sending a caption signal, no captions will appear.
IMPORTANT
A large black or gray box will appear on your
TV screen, if you have selected text captioning,
and no text signal is being broadcast.
