CLOSED CAPTION
Broadcasters can send either Standard or Test closed captioning. Standard closed captioning follows the dialogue of the characters on-screen and displays in a small section of the screen. Text closed captioning often contains information such as weather or news and covers a large portion of the on-screen program. This LCD TV can decode two different standards and text closed captioning signals from each TV station. However, each TV station may broadcast only one or two closed captioning signals, or none at all. Within CC mode, you can select Text1, Text2, CC1 or CC2.
