            Appeal No. 2002-1996                                                          Page 3              
            Application No. 09/086,312                                                                        


                         (c) upon the variable range being set, determining whether the user                  
                   has operated a control key for changing an image parameter of the                          
                   displayed image; and                                                                       
                         (d) upon it being determined that the user has operated the control                  
                   key, increasing or decreasing image parameter data according to the                        
                   image parameter input by the user;                                                         
                         wherein all of said determining steps are carried out entirely by                    
                   software means in a programmed microcomputer; and                                          
                         wherein the step (d) of increasing or decreasing image parameter                     
                   data comprises the steps of:                                                               
                                (d1) upon it being determined that the user has operated the                  
                         control key for increasing the image parameter data, determining                     
                         whether the increased image parameter data is greater than or                        
                         equal to a predetermined maximum value of the variable range;                        
                                (d2) if the increased image parameter data is not greater                     
                         than or equal to the predetermined maximum value of the variable                     
                         range, increasing the image parameter data according to the image                    
                         parameter input from the user;                                                       
                                (d3) upon it being determined that the user has operated the                  
                         control key for decreasing the image parameter data, determining                     
                         whether the decreased image parameter data is less than or equal                     
                         to a predetermined minimum value of the variable range; and                          
                                (d4) if the decreased image parameter data is not less than                   
                         or equal to the predetermined minimum value of the variable range,                   
                         decreasing the image parameter data according to the image                           
                         parameter input from the user.                                                       


                         5. A method of controlling an image parameter of an image                            
                   displayed on a multi-synchronization display, said image parameter being                   
                   one of increase vertical size of image, decrease vertical size of image,                   
                   increase horizontal size of image, decrease horizontal size of image,
