On analog channels (Ant-A or Ant-B), broadcasters can send either Standard or Text closed captioning. Standard Closed Captions follow the dialogue of the characters on-screen and display in a small section of the screen. Text Closed Captions often contain information such as weather or news and covers a large portion of the screen. On digital channels (Ant-DTV) broadcasters can send up to

6 different captioning selections. Each TV station may broadcast only one or two types of captions or none at all.

Analog Captions

The TV can display one of the following captions for Analog sources:

•CC1, CC2, CC3, or CC4 (Standard closed captioning signals).

•Text1, Text2, Text3, or Text4 (Text closed captioning signals).

The Digital Channel Guide lists the channel and sub-channels, channel name and program title. The information is provided by the broadcaster, hence, it may not be available for all channels.

IMPORTANT

When analog Text closed captioning is selected, a large black or gray box appears on your TV screen if no signal is broadcast.

IMPORTANT

The content of captions is determined by the broadcaster. If your captions show strange characters, misspellings, or odd grammar, it is not a malfunction of the TV.
