1. Initialize MCU settings, including I/O, Timer, ISR and Serial
Port settings.
2. Read EEPROM content to recover monitor settings,
including brightness, contrast, color temperature and OSD
position etc.
3. Initialize system variable, including system flag, OSD
timeout counter, burin mode status… etc.
4. Initialize OSD menu variable for user operation
5. Initialize device on the board, now only MST scalar chip will
be initialized
6. Check if system is in power off status from first AC power
up. If yes, then go to 7, else go to 8.
7. If yes, system will be forced to enter power off status Mode
detection
8. Check if input timing has been changed, if yes then go to
10, else go to 11
9. Setup MST scalar for display according input timing
10. OSD handler for OSD operation.
Debug handler, only debug only
