Appendix B User Mode OSD Item Description
zAuto-Adjustment
This item will automatically adjust the H/V position, frequency, phase, and black
level.
zAuto Phase
This item will automatically adjust the sampling.
zBrightness
It is used to adjust the brightness of screen. This function will adjust the offset
value of ADC. Setting this value too high or too low will destroy the quality of
image.

only selectable on resolution of 720/640x400 or 720/640x350 . ) 400 and 350
standard IBM mode have the same Hsync. and Vsync. Value. AV-9261 MPU can
not differentiate them automatically , user need to adjust them manually to
match proper VGA mode .
zH. Position
It is used to adjust horizontal display position of image.
zV. Position
It is used to adjust vertical display position of image.
