Digital Channel Info
The Digital Channel Info option allows the TV to receive information about
digital TV channels, such as program titles. The default is set to Acquire Digital
Channel Information for Antenna A, B, and DTVLink/1394 inputs. Disabling
acquisition of Digital Channel Info option should be reserved as a last resort
because you may not receive important program guide information. You can
elect to receive or not receive Digital Channel Info for Antenna A, Antenna B,
and DTVLink/1394 independently. A new Quick Channel Search will occur for
Antenna A and Antenna B when changing its Digital Channel Info setting.
Notes: When the TV is locked and you try to access the Digital Channel
Info screen, the Password Entry screen appears (enter the password).
Disabling Digital Channel Info for an input source does not affect the
acquisition of GUIDE Plus+ channel listings.
Channels remain blocked or viewable in the Parental Control feature
regardless of the Digital Channel Info setting although the channels may
appear to have changed.
Lamp Power
Your HDTV is equipped with a special lamp system. Eventually, the lamp (like a
light bulb) will need to be replaced. The Lamp Power menu enables you to
extend the life of the lamp (choose Longer Life), or provide the brightest
possible picture and keep the lamp at its normal operating duration (choose
Brighter Picture).
