Using the TV’s Menu System
Sound Logic
Monitors a program’s audio track and limits volume excursions to a minimum
and maximum volume range from current volume setting. Acting like a dynamic
range limiter; it compresses the dynamic range to limit suggested volume
increases (for example, the sudden increase in volume you sometimes hear
when a commercial starts). Choose
Sound Logic On
or
Sound Logic Off,
depending on your preference.
Audio Language
The
Audio Language
menu lets you choose the default audio language you want
to hear for ATSC (digital TV) programs. If the Audio Language icon ( ) in the
banner lights, it means there is more than one audio language available. The
system automatically sets the audio program to the default audio language when
the channel you are viewing is a digital terrestrial channel and the specified
language is available for that program.
In the
Audio Language
menu, highlight the default audio language you want by
pressing the up and down arrow buttons on your remote control. Press OK to
select whenever available on a channel to hear that Audio Language.
Some programs can have audio languages available that can be heard but that
cannot be set as the default. To select and hear those audio languages, navigate
to the “Change Audio” action button and select OK, or use SOUND button on
remote.
Note:
You can change the Audio Language temporarily by pressing
SOUND button on the remote control. Changing channels reverts the
channel back to the default Audio Language original selected in the menu.
SAP (Second Audio Program)
When turned on, Second Audio Program plays the program’s audio in a second
language, if one is available.
SAP
is also used to broadcast a program’s audio
with descriptions of the video for the visually impaired. Or, SAP might contain
audio which is totally unrelated to the video.
Notes:
SAP is broadcast in mono and is only available for analog
programs, not digital programs.
You can activate SAP (if available) temporarily with the SOUND button.
Changing channels reverts SAP back to original SAP menu setting.
Balance
The
Balance
setting applies to the internal speakers, rear external speakers, and
the headphone output. Balance does not affect the internal subwoofer nor any
other audio output. Balance is how much audio (loudness) gets sent to the left
and right speakers.
Note:
Balance setting affects only variable-volume outputs.

SAP stands for "Second Audio Program". When SAP is

will light up. SAP content can be another language,
descriptions for the visually impaired, or audio not related
to the program (for example, music or news).
If you set "SAP On" and SAP is available for a program, you
will hear SAP for any channel where it is available. SAP is
only available for analog (NTSC) programs.
