Note: These captioning style options only have an effect on true digital closed captions.
Not all captioning on digital channels is digital captioning--it depends on what the broadcaster is
sending. If the closed captioning for a program is not digital, the Digital CC style settings will not
have an effect.
Preferences
Channel Number Display Turn this feature on if you want the channel number always visible.
Language Lets you select your preferred language for the menus: English, Espanol or Francais.
Power Save Mode If no signal is detected from the Input/RF INPUT for 5min, the TV set
goes to standby mode.
Dynamic Backlight Option: On/Off. If you choose On, the TV will continually monitor the
video content being displayed and will adjust the backlight to achieve optimum contrast levels.
Light Sensor If you choose On, this feature is activated.
When activated, this feature monitors the ambient light conditions in the room and adjusts
the TV’s backlight for optimum viewing. It also serves as an energy saving feature by lowering
the backlight power level when appropriate (typically in darker room conditions).
The TV has a multi-colored LED that adjusts based on the backlight power level with “green”
representing the highest level of energy savings. Please refer to the table at the left for the various
conditions of the backlight power level and LED colors when the light sensor is active.
Note: When TV is On and the light sensor is Off, the LED color will be blue.
HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control)
If choose On, the HDMI CEC function is enabled. This feature provides expanded capabilities
when your TV is connected to an HDMI CEC compliant device using a certified HDMI 1.3 cable.
Here is an example using an HDMI CEC compliant DVD player connected to the TV.
Upon activating the feature, the TV searches for HDMI CEC compliant devices that are
connected. In this example, a connected DVD player is found.
When both the TV and DVD player are On and you insert a disc into the DVD player, the
TV will automatically switch to the associated input and initiate play.
When the TV is on and the DVD player is turned on with the disc already loaded, the TV
will automatically switch to the associated input and initiate play.
If you connect another HDMI CEC device and /or change the HDMI input used for an
existing HDMI CEC device, you should turn the HDMI CEC function Off and then turn it
back On again in order for the TV to complete a new search for the connected devices.
