Runco High-Definition manual FCC Ratings and Content Categories, Rating/Category Description

Operation

Caption: Select Caption from the Setup menu to control the display of closed captions when watching programs that contain them.

•Display: Select On or Off to control the display of closed captions.

•Mode: Select one of four captioning modes: CC1, CC2, CC3 or CC4. CC1 usually contains the native-language captions; if a program is captioned in more than one language, those captions are carried on CC2, CC3 or CC4.

The Crystal Series LCD Display also supports “text mode” captioning; to use this feature, select Text1, Text2, Text3 or Text4. The text modes, instead of displaying a few lines of captions somewhere on the picture, take over all or half of the screen to display scrolling text information. (The text modes are seldom used today, so most of the time there is no information there to see.) The text field is sometimes used for embedding Internet data (called Interactive TV Links, or ITV Links) in the captions.

•CC On Mute: To have the Crystal Series LCD Display show captions when the audio output is muted, set this option to Yes.

Parental Control: To block the display of television programs or movies based on their ratings, select Parental Control from the Setup menu and press ENTER. Enter the default Personal Identification Number (PIN) – 0000 – and press ENTER again.

•Parental Lock: This is the “master switch” for the parental controls. Set it to On on Off.

•TV Rating: Select TV Rating from the Parental Control menu to block television programs carrying a given rating, to prevent children from watching programs that are deemed inappropriate. These ratings and content labels have been established by the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to help parents and other caregivers determine if a program is suitable for young viewers.

To block programs carrying a given rating, use the up- or down-arrow to select a

rating. Then, press the right-arrow button to require the PIN code to be entered to view

a program with that rating. A lock icon () appears to indicate that the restriction is active.
