Abstract
Abstract A display control circuit system is disclosed which, while maintaining the compatibility of software perfectly, can realize various specifications of the software, provides for a gradation display in an LCD display to realize substantially the same level of access as in a CRT display, permits a configuration control, and, when one or more bits are expanded in the conventional software, can protect the function-expanded bit(s). The display control system includes a mode selector to select either a mode for controlling the display of CRT or a mode for controlling the display of LCD, a controller for controlling the CRT display control, and a controller for controlling the LCD display control.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
116 words
A display control system for controlling the display of a screen composed of an upper liquid crystal provided in the upper vertical portion of said screen and a lower liquid crystal provided in the lower vertical portion of said screen, said upper and lower liquid crystals being disposed closely to each other, characterized in that there is provided phase change means for changing the display phase of said lower liquid crystal relative to the display phase of said upper liquid crystal in accordance with a number of scan lines on said entire display, said phase change means delaying said display phase of said lower liquid crystal relative to said display phase of said upper liquid crystal.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
116 words
A display control system for controlling the display of a screen composed of an upper liquid crystal provided in the upper vertical portion of said screen and a lower liquid crystal provided in the lower vertical portion of said screen, said upper and lower liquid crystals being disposed closely to each other, characterized in that there is provided phase change means for changing the display phase of said lower liquid crystal relative to the display phase of said upper liquid crystal in accordance with a number of scan lines on said entire display, said phase change means delaying said display phase of said lower liquid crystal relative to said display phase of said upper liquid crystal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
124 words
The display control system for controlling to display of a screen composed of an upper liquid crystal provided in the upper vertical portion of said screen and a lower liquid crystal provided in the lower vertical portion of said screen, said upper and lower liquid crystals being disposed closely to each other, characterized in that there is provided a phase change means for changing the display phase of said lower liquid crystal relative to the display phase of said upper liquid crystal in accordance with a number of scan lines of said entire screen, said phase change means being provided with adjusting means for adjusting the amount of delay of said lower liquid crystal display phase relative to said upper liquid crystal display phase.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
124 words
The display control system for controlling to display of a screen composed of an upper liquid crystal provided in the upper vertical portion of said screen and a lower liquid crystal provided in the lower vertical portion of said screen, said upper and lower liquid crystals being disposed closely to each other, characterized in that there is provided a phase change means for changing the display phase of said lower liquid crystal relative to the display phase of said upper liquid crystal in accordance with a number of scan lines of said entire screen, said phase change means being provided with adjusting means for adjusting the amount of delay of said lower liquid crystal display phase relative to said upper liquid crystal display phase.
