Using the TV’s Menu System

Analog Captions

You can select a closed caption mode, which is the mode, or source, used for
displaying captioning information for all analog channels. The content of CC and
Text are different; you can select which one you want to see on the screen.

CC

CC displays information at any position on the screen. It overlays the text

on top of the picture as it is received.

Text

Text displays information at one particular position (such as the bottom

third) of the screen. You cannot see the picture underneath the text.

You can choose between eight closed caption modes, or sources:

CC1

and Text 1 are the primary caption and text services. The captioning or

text is displayed in the same language as the program’s dialog.

CC3

and Text 3 serve as the preferred data channels. The captioning or text

is often a secondary language translation, simplified English, or displayed at
a slower rate.

CC2

and CC4 and Text 2 and Text 4 are rarely available and broadcasters

use them only in special conditions, such as when CC1 and CC3 are not
available, or Text1 and Text3 are not available.

Digital Captions

You can select a closed caption, service mode (1-6) for digital channels. The
service modes support MPEG-2 based transport sources such as DTVLink.

Service 1

and Service 2 are the primary and secondary languages, respectively.

Service 3

and Service 4, 5, 6 are additional caption sources that may be

available. Specific label names may be displayed (e.g., Spanish) instead of a
generic label (e.g., Service 1), if available.

Caption Priority

You can choose whether the TV uses digital or analog captions for digital TV
programs that have both or either.

If you select analog captions and they are available for a digital TV
program, the CC icon in the banner lights.

If you select digital captions and they are available for a digital TV program,
the CC icon in the banner lights.

Caption Style

Customize closed captioning for the digital captions by choosing the settings for
the following options:

Caption Size

is the font size (Standard, Large, Small) of the text characters.

Caption Font

is a complete assortment of letters, numbers, punctuation marks,

etc. of a given font design. You have eight fonts with varying styles of spacing
from which to choose.

Note: A preview graphic of the caption font appears on the right.
