Captioning is textual information transmitted along with the picture and sound so it can be
displayed on the TV screen. Because different types of captions can be transmitted with the
TV signal, separate captioning modes are provided. The captioning modes recognized by this
model are: C1 (Caption1), C2 (Caption2), T1 (Text1), and T2 (Text2). Local broadcasters
decide which captions signals to transmit. They may not choose to provide captions or may
provide captions in one or all of the available modes.
C1: This is the main mode used for program captioning (words
match the program you are watching). Almost all broadcasters
will use Caption1 to transmit program captions. These cap-
tions are generally one or two lines.
C2: This is an alternative mode for program
captioning. Caption2 may be used by the broadcaster to
provide captions in another language, such as, Spanish or
French.
T1: This mode is used to display large amounts of text. This
text will appear within a black box that may be nearly as
large as the TV screen. Text displayed in this manner does
not generally relate to the program. These captions may be
used by broadcasters to provide weather reports, community
bulletins, stock quotes, etc.
T2: This is an alternative mode used to display large
amounts of text. The same types of information displayed
in Text1 can be displayed in Text2.
QuikCap: QuikCap allows captions to toggle on and off with the Mute function. For
example, the phone rings; you press the MUTE key on the remote control to block the TV
sound; the captions display automatically. When you finish your conversation and press the
MUTE key again to restore the sound, the captions will disappear.
QuikCap displays program captions in the C1 (Caption1) mode.
