PIP (PICTURE-IN-PICTURE) OPERATION

picture on top of the main picture.
PIP Buttons

works:
PIP Brings up the PiPwindow. Press PIP again to remove the window.
If you have selected the option labelled Alternate with PIP while in the
PIP Caption Display menu, then you will be able to toggle between
PIPwith closed captioning, PIP without dosed captioning, and no PiP
window.

the screen.
SWAP Switches, or "swaps," the video from the PIPwindow with the
main picture.
CH CTRL (Channel Control) Lets you switch channel control between
the PIPwindow and the main picture. To determine whether you are
controlling the PiP or the main picture, bring up the Channel Marker
(detailed on the following page). The yellow channel number is the
one you are controlling.

channels by entering digits or pressing the CH^/v. When you press the
CH CTRL, the channel control switches to the main picture. You can
now change channels in the main picture by entering digits or pressing
CH^/v.
Press CH CTRL again to return the channel control to the PIP
window.
