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: Caption1, Caption2, Text1, and Text2. Local broadcasters decide which caption
signals to transmit. They may not choose to provide captions or may provide captions in one
or all of the available modes.
