options:
•
•
Enable/Disable SAP. This option appears on the Quick Settings menu when the
subscriber presses Settings from an analog channel. The subscriber can use this
option to turn SAP on or off for an analog channel.
•
Choose SAP Language. This option appears on the Quick Settings menu when the
subscriber presses Settings from a digital channel. The subscriber can use this
option to select a different audio language for a digital service.
If you do not enable this option, the Quick Settings menu does not display any
options for subscribers to enable or disable SAP or to choose a different language for
a digital service.
