Command D format
These three commands determine the vertical and
horizontal start positions of the display. 64 vertical and
64 horizontal start positions can be selected. After a
master reset, starting positions are not guaranteed and
therefore must be programmed by the user. The horizontal
start position (HP) and the vertical start position (VP) may
be calculated as follows:
Where (H5
→
H0) is the decimal value of these 6 bits and
(H5
→
H0)
≥
4.
Where (V5
→
V0) is the decimal value of these 6 bits and
(V5
→
V0)
≥
0.

Command E
When output ports P00, P01 and P04 are enabled,
Command E is used to write data to them.

Command F
Table 38
Command F format
This command loads Control Register 5 with data that
determines the background colour in Frame shadowing
mode.

Command G
Table 39
Command G format
Command G is used to enable/disable the OSD horizontal
stabilization circuit, to select the Half-tone mode and to
select the character size of the first line.
In the Half-tone mode, excellent semi-transparent
half-tone effects can be obtained with OSD frequencies in
the range 4 to 7 MHz. This mode also enhances the
background colour with intensity output. For further details
on the half-tone effect refer to “The programming guide for
the PCA8514” report number MICT/AN9402.
