Abstract:
An electronic timepiece includes a clock circuit, a receiver that receives radio waves from positioning satellites, an operation receiving unit, and a control unit constituted by a CPU and a module controller. The control unit makes the receiver perform either one of a date and time reception process that attempts to obtain date and time information and a positioning reception process that attempt to obtain information needed to obtain the current location; and, when a prescribed input operation that affects the current region setting is received, the control unit makes the receiver perform the positioning reception process at least once in the reception operations that are performed after receiving the prescribed input operation before a prescribed location updating event that determines a current location of the electronic timepiece occurs.
Abstract:
An electronic timepiece includes: a bezel having location markers for indicating positions of the world; a second hand moving relative to the bezel; a memory storing time difference information in which each location marker is associated with information relating to a time zone to which a position indicated by each location marker belongs; and a controller performing operation control for moving the second hand relative to the bezel, and the bezel has a set exception indication position representing non-correspondence to any time zone associated with each location marker by being in a predetermined positional relationship with the second hand, and the controller causes the second hand and the exception indication position to be in the predetermined positional relationship when there is no location marker associated with a set time zone, during display relating to the set time zone for a date and time to be displayed.
Abstract:
An analog electronic timepiece, including: a hand which is provided to be rotatable; and a processor which makes the hand perform at least one of an acceleration operation and a deceleration operation as a speed change operation when the hand is made to perform a fast forward movement, the acceleration operation being an operation of gradually increasing a fast forward speed of the hand from a stopped state when the fast forward movement is started, and the deceleration operation being an operation of gradually decreasing the fast forward speed until the hand comes into the stopped state when the fast forward movement is ended.
Abstract:
An electronic timepiece including: an operating unit which performs an operation including at least one of transmission, reception and generation of electromagnetic waves of a predetermined strength or more; a display unit which displays information; a reception unit which receives a predetermined operation for switching a display content by the display unit between display contents according to a plurality of functions; an output control unit which sets the display content to be a basic display according to a predetermined basic function when the reception unit continuously receives the predetermined operation for a first predetermined time; and a setting unit which switches on/off of the operation of the operating unit between an operation allowed state and an operation prohibited state when the reception unit continuously receives the predetermined operation for a second predetermined time longer than the first predetermined time.
Abstract:
An analog electronic timepiece including: a radiowave receiver that receives radiowaves from positioning satellites, acquires preassigned target data from the received radiowaves and outputs the acquired target data; a hand that is provided to be rotatable; a time calculator that calculates a turnaround time from input of a reception command for the radiowaves to the radiowave receiver to output of the acquired target data; and a notification controller that instructs the hand to carry out a predetermined notification movement during reception of the radiowaves and finish the notification movement at a timing when the turnaround time elapses.
Abstract:
An electronic device, including: a clocking unit; a receiving unit; a reception control unit; and a date and time obtaining unit, wherein among first date and time information of a first time unit transmitted from the positioning satellite and second date and time information of a second time unit which has a unit width larger than a unit width of the first time unit, the reception control unit makes the receiving unit receive only the first date and time information, and the date and time obtaining unit includes: a date and time calculation unit; and a date and time correction unit.
Abstract:
An electronic display device includes measurement sensors that measure respective items, a digital display that displays the items, and a processor. The processor determines a main image related to a measurement of at least one of the items and updates a screen at first timing. Upon displaying the main image related to a measurement of an item other than the first item on the digital display, the processor determines that a sub image is related to measurement of the first item, synchronizes the first timing with update timing that is related to the main image, and simultaneously updates the main image and the sub image.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a receiver, a processor, and a communication unit. Via the communication unit from an external device, the processor receives altitude information on each of altitudes obtained at intervals of a first period, at intervals of a second period that is longer than the first period, and individually receives altitude information on an altitude obtained not at intervals of the first period. In response to receiving the altitude obtained not at intervals of the first period, the processor performs positioning at the receiving timing. Based on obtainment timings of the altitudes received at intervals of the second period and an obtainment timing of the altitude received individually, the processor correlates the altitudes received at intervals of the second period and the altitude received individually with positioning results of the positioning such that the obtainment timings correspond to positioning timings of the positioning results.
Abstract:
An electronic timepiece includes a first display section including a first rotatable part and a processor. In the first display section, a predetermined number of display contents being a same display content is simultaneously displayed at predetermined angle intervals in a rotation angle range of the first rotatable part, wherein the predetermined number is two or more. The first display section makes a display pattern that shows change in the display content appear the predetermined number of times cyclically according to rotation of the first rotatable part. When causing the first display section to display a first display content of first display contents included in the display pattern, the processor selects an angular position from angular positions for the first display content in the predetermined number of display patterns, and causes the first rotatable part to rotate to the selected angular position.
Abstract:
An electronic timepiece, including: a counter; a display section; a first processor; a second processor; and a power supply section which supplies electric power to each section from a battery, wherein when an output voltage from the power supply section decreases to less than a predetermined first reference voltage, the first processor stops a display operation by the display section, when the time information is acquired by the processing operation of the second processor, the first processor corrects the time counted by the counter based on the acquired time information and causes the display section to display the corrected time, and when the output voltage decreases to less than the first reference voltage following an acquisition operation of the time information by the second processor, the first processor does not stop a time display operation during a predetermined pending period.
