to the program (for example, music or news).
If you set "SAP On" and SAP is available for a program, you

only available for analog (NTSC) programs.

Audio Mode
The Audio Mode menu lets you choose the default audio mode you want to
hear for ATSC (digital TV) programs. If the Audio Mode icon ( ) in the banner
lights, it means there is more than one audio mode available. The system
automatically sets the audio program to the default audio mode from the menu
when the channel you are viewing is a digital channel and the specified
language is available for that program.
In the Audio Mode menu, highlight the default audio mode you usually want to
hear by pressing the up and down arrow buttons on your remote control. Press
OK to hear that language by default whenever available on a channel.
Some programs can have audio mode available that can be heard but that
cannot be set as the default. To select and hear those audio modes, navigate to
the “Change Audio” action button and select OK, or use the SOUND button on
the remote.
Note: You can change the Audio Mode temporarily by pressing the SOUND
button on the remote control. Changing channels reverts the Audio Mode
back to the default Audio Mode originally selected in the menu.
SAP (Second Audio Program)
When turned on and available, Second Audio Program plays the analog
program’s audio in a second language. SAP is also used to broadcast a
program’s audio with descriptions of the video for the visually impaired. SAP
might also 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 or inputs reverts SAP back to the SAP menu setting.
Balance
The Balance setting applies to the internal speakers and the headphone output.
Balance is how much audio (loudness) gets sent to the left and right speakers.
Note: Balance applies if the Fixed/Variable Audio Output is set to
Variable Output, Speakers On. See the following page for more
information.
