    摘要: In a system in which active and standby units, each used to control a VCXO on the basis of a reference signal from a GPS receiver to generate a high-precision clock, constitute a redundant arrangement, and a clock is output from the active unit, a clock generating circuit has an arrangement in which when the active unit cannot receive any reference signal from the GPS receiver for some reason, free-running operation is performed in the control state the VCXO assumed when the reference signal stopped in the internal circuit of the active unit, and switching to the standby unit is not immediately performed, and an arrangement in which when the standby unit can normally receive the reference signal from the GPS, the output clock from the active unit during free-running operation is monitored, and the unit that is to receive the reference signal is switched from the active unit to the standby unit at the timing at which no influence is exerted on the output clock when a phase difference larger than a predetermined value is detected between the output clock and the reference signal from the GPS receiver of the standby unit, thereby preventing a clock exceeding the phase difference allowed in the system from being supplied to another circuit.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a paper stacking section for stacking a plurality of paper sheets cut to a given size. In the image forming apparatus, a paper supplying section supplies the paper sheets one by one, an image forming section forms an image which corresponds to received image information on the paper sheet supplied from the paper supplying section, a discharging paper stacking section stacks a paper sheet discharged out of the apparatus after the image is formed on the paper sheet by the image forming section, and a marking section is provided separate from the image forming section and adapted to continuously apply an "absence of paper" warning mark to the paper sheet remaining in the paper stacking section during a given period of time from a time at which a residual amount of paper sheets on the paper stacking section is lowered below a given level during the supply of paper sheets by the paper supplying section to a given time preceding a time at which the residual amount of paper sheets is all used up to cause the image forming opeation to be stopped. By so doing, the user of the apparatus is informed of a reduced residual amount of paper sheets over the given period of time.
