POSITION INDICATOR
First Claim
1. A position indicator, comprising:
- a first transmitter;
a second transmitter;
an inputting circuit which, in operation, accepts an input from outside of the position indicator;
a signal generation circuit which, in operation, generates a position detecting signal;
a plurality of additional information generation circuits which, in operation, generate a plurality of types of additional information; and
a controller which, in operation, controls, based on the input accepted by the input circuit, transmission of the position detecting signal through the first transmitter and controls, based on the input accepted by the input circuit, transmission of additional information generated by the plurality of additional information generation circuits from the first transmitter or the second transmitter.

Abstract
A position indicator that can be used with a plurality of types of position detection systems. The position indicator includes a first transmitter, a second transmitter, an input circuit which, in operation, accepts an input from outside of the position indicator, a signal generation circuit which, in operation, generates a position detecting signal, a plurality of additional information generation circuits which, in operation, generate a plurality of types of additional information, and a controller. The controller controls, based on the input accepted by the input circuit, transmission of the position detecting signal through the first transmitter and controls, based on the input accepted by the input circuit, transmission of additional information generated by the plurality of additional information generation circuits from the first transmitter or the second transmitter.
