CLOSED CAPTIONS
Closed captioning is a process which converts the audio portion of a television program into written words which then
appear as subtitles on the television screen. Closed captions allow viewers to read the dialogue and narration of televi-
sion programs.

Captions are the subtitles of the dialogue and narration of television programs. For prere-
corded programs,
program dialogue can be arranged into captions in advance. Its possible to caption a live
program by using a process called real-time captioning, which creates
captions instantly. Real-time captioning is normally done by professional reporters using
a machine shorthand system and computer for translation into English.
Captioning is an effective system for the hearing-impaired, and it can also aid in teaching
language skills.

• Not all TV broadcasts include closed caption signals.
• Sometimes TV stations broadcast four different caption signals on the same channel. By selecting Mode1 to Mode2,
you can choose which signal you view. Mode1 is usually the signal with the captions, while another mode might show
demonstration or programming information.
• Your TV might not receive caption signals normally in the following situations.
