Text mode is often used for channel guides,
schedules or bulletin board information when
programmes with Closed Captioning are
shown. The complete screen is used for
displaying the text.
IMPORTANT
1. Not all television programmes and product commercials are made for broadcast with
Closed Captioning information included. Neither are all Closed Captioning modes (Caption
1 to 4 or TEXT 1 to 4) necessarily being used by a broadcast station during transmission
of a programme with Closed Captioning. Check with your local listings for details.
2. A broadcast station will often use spelling abbreviations, symbols and other grammatical
short-cuts in order to keep pace with the on-screen action. These vary with the source
of the captioned text material and do not indicate a need for the service of the television.
