... a teletext feature which allows changing the version of a page from the broadcasting source without the user intervention so that every page in the broadcast cycle could be refreshed by the broadcasters in a way that it could be looked upon as a subcycle, ie: page 12 could be refreshed five (5) times at fixed interval giving the impression of a subcycle of five (5) different pages for that particular page without increasing the average access time of the broadcast cycle.

Caractéristique du télétexte qui permet de changer la version d'une page provenant de la source de diffusion, sans que l'usager intervienne. Le radiodiffuseur peut ainsi mettre à jour chaque page du cycle sous forme de sous-cycle. Par exemple, la page 12 peut être mise à jour cinq fois à intervalle fixe, ce qui donne l'impression qu'il existe un sous-cycle de cinq pages différentes pour cette page particulière, sans retarder le temps d'accès moyen du cycle principal.
