TELETEXT Operation
Teletext news and entertainment services are only available on certain broadcast channels. The time
taken to display the pages and sub-pages is set by the teletext transmitter and not by this television.
Teletext is also used for Closed Captioning of television programmes for the hearing impaired. Closed
captions can be found on Teletext Page 801.
Not all broadcast stations transmit closed captions or teletext in the same way. Some, but not all, of the
methods are listed below:
1.
A teletext screen appears and the closed captions are accessed like any other teletext page.
2.
The picture remains on the screen while you type in 801.
3.
The picture disappears while you type in 801. The picture stays black until the page is reached.
4.
The picture disappears while you type in 801. The picture stays black until a programme containing
closed captions is broadcast.
Some broadcast stations will have a message on the screen to tell you that closed captions are not
available for this programme. Some broadcast stations give you no indication at all.
TOP (Table Of Pages) MODE
In TOPTEXT mode, the red button moves to the previous page number and the green button moves to
the next page number. The yellow and blue buttons correspond to different subjects. Pushing the
coloured button can access these subjects. This is the current preferred method of operation in Australia.
FASTEXT MODE
In FASTEXT mode, four differently coloured subjects are displayed at the bottom of the screen. To
access more information about one of these subjects, push the corresponding colour coded button on the
remote control. This is the current preferred method of operation in New Zealand.
LIST MODE
In LIST mode, four different coloured page numbers are shown at the bottom of the screen. Each of these
numbers can be altered and stored in the TV's memory. These coloured page numbers correspond to the
colour coded buttons on the remote control.
