Sharp LC-50LE440U User Guide

This allows you to configure the way you 

choose to view digital captioning. Select one of 

the digital service channels made available by 

the caption provider. There are six standard 

services. Service 1 is designated as the Primary 

Caption Service. This service contains the 

verbatim, or near-verbatim captions for the 

primary language being spoken in the 

accompanying program audio. Service 2 is 

designated as the Secondary Language Service. 

This service contains captions in a secondary 

language, which is a translation of the captions 

in the primary Caption Service. The other 

service sub channels are not pre-assigned. It is 

up to the discretion of the individual caption 

provider to utilize the remaining service 

channels.

You can output digital audio to an AV amplifi er 

or similar device whose DIGITAL AUDIO INPUT 

terminal is connected to the DIGITAL AUDIO 

OUTPUT terminal on the TV. Please select an 

audio output format compatible with the audio 

format of the program you are watching and 

the equipment connected.

      PCM: The optical output terminal outputs 

      audio signal in PCM form. If your digital 

      audio system does not support Dolby 

      Digital, select "PCM".

The Auto Sync. is only available when the input 
source is PC and your TV is receiving a 
computer signal. Select 

Auto Sync. for 

adjusting the settings automatically.

•  Be sure to connect the PC to the TV and switch it 
    on before starting "Auto Sync.".

Ordinarily you can easily adjust the picture as 

necessary to change image position using 

"Auto Sync.". In some cases, however, manual 

adjustment is needed to optimize the image.

      H-Pos.: Centers the image by moving it to 

      the left or right.

      V-Pos.: Centers the image by moving it up 

      or down.

      Clock: Adjust when the image flickers with 

      vertical stripes.

      Phase: Adjust when characters have low 

      contrast or when the image flickers.

This function sets the terminal to output the 

computer audio.

The adjustment items vary depending on the 

input source. Select the input source 

corresponding to the terminal connected to the 

PC and then adjust the desired item.

•  The default cursor position may not be in the center, because 
    the screen position variable ranges may be asymmetrical.
•  The screen position variable ranges depend on the View Mode 
    or the signal type. The ranges can be seen on the position
    -setting screen.

This allows you to select the Closed Captions 

service levels of analog broadcasting to be 

displayed. Closed captioning allows you to read 

the voice content of television programs on the 

TV screen. Designed to help the hearing 

impaired, this feature uses on-screen “text 

boxes“ to show dialogues and conversations 

while the TV program is in progress. Captions 

will appear on the screen during captioned 

broadcasts.

    

Dialogues (and descriptions) for the action on the 

    captioned TV program shows on screen. Usually 

    CC1 is the most used. CC2 can be used for 

    alternate languages if they are being transmitted.

    

Often used for channel guide, schedules, bulletin 

    board information for Closed captions programs, 

    news, weather information, or stock market reports. 

    Not all Caption services are necessarily being used 

    by a TV channel during the transmission of a Closed 

    Caption program.

      Dolby Digital: The optical output terminal 

      outputs audio signal in Dolby Digital form. It 

      reproduces sound from surround program 

      of digital.

      

Off: Disables digital audio output.
