Basic Operations
Setting MTS/SAP mode
When watching conventional TV programs, use the Multi-
channel Television Sound (MTS) function to enjoy stereo sound
and/or Secondary Audio Programs (SAP).
• Stereo broadcasts
Sports, shows, and concerts can be shown with dynamic
stereo sound.
• SAP broadcasts
MAIN sound: The normal program soundtrack (either in
mono or stereo).
SAP sound: Listen to a second language, supplementary
commentary and other information. (SAP is mono sound.)
NOTE
• Conventional TV channels: TV channels received through the
conventional VHF/UHF frequencies or conventional cable TV
channels
• When stereo sound is difficult to hear, manually switch to
MONO for clearer sound.
• Once MONO is selected, the Plasma Display sound remains
mono even if the system receives a stereo broadcast. You
must reselect STEREO to hear stereo sound again.
• Selecting MTS while the source is from an INPUT (1 to 6) or
a PC does not change the type of sound. The video source
determines the type of sound.
Press MTS to cycle through the types of sound.
