TELETEXT - Mode
What is Teletext?
Teletext is an informatio n service, organized like a magazine, which is provid ed
by som e television stat ions in additio n to regular television broadc asting. Your
television receives special Teletext signals bro adcast by a TV station, p rocesses
the information and displays it graphically on the screen. News, weather and
sports informat io n, stock exchange pric es, p rog ram p reviews and closed c ap tioning for the deaf are among the many services available through Teletext.
Teletext inform ation is o rganized much like a magazine: accord ing t o pag es and
sub- pages. The basic unit of displayed info rmation is the p age. A sub- page is
one of a series of pages.
Teletext receptio n is cont rolled b y using t he remote cont rol. Refer to t he appropriate button descriptions for operation of the Teletext functions.
Teletext features
Depending on the TV programme, the Teletext pages are transmitted using different system. Your SHARP TV is adjusted to rec eive two Teletext systems, namely FLOF and LIST, which are automatically identified by the receiver. The user can
easily identify t hem by the manner in which they app ear on t he sc reen.
