6. Typical procedure example
The following is a sample of procedures to control the monitor, these are examples of "Get
parameter" and "Set parameter".
6.1. How to change the
Backlight
setting.
Step 1. The controller requests the Monitor to reply with the current brightness setting and
capability to support this operation. (Get parameter)
