11. Functions for Adjustment
11.1. Adjustment Operation Mode
11.1.1. The kind of Modes
It is possible to change in six adjustment operation modes by the setting of serial communication data in
CXD3172AR. The selection of each mode is possible to set by ADJMODE (CAT12_Byte2) of the following
table.

AGCMIN Automatic Adjustment Mode
This system is designed to set the video output to the equivalent of 100[IRE] when the A/D input is 400[mVp-p]
because the D range is 250[%]. At the CCD standard output of 250[mVp-p], the A/D input must be 400[mVp-p],
but the actual AGC gain characteristic (CXA2069N) varies in each case.
This adjustment sets the minimum AGC gain required to absorb variations in the AGC gain characteristic
(CXA2069N) and set the A/D input to 400[mVp-p] when the CCD output is 250[mVp-p].
The AGCMIN adjustment is set using the following parameters.
