Abstract: A position detecting circuit detects an indicated position on an input surface of a sensor as absolute coordinates. A relative coordinate calculating circuit which, in operation, sequentially obtains the absolute coordinates from the position detecting circuit and calculates relative coordinates indicating the position indicated by an indicator on the input surface, from a difference between previous absolute coordinates and present absolute coordinates. An output absolute coordinate value calculating circuit which, in operation, assumes that an indication input is performed on an input area positioned on an output absolute coordinate region corresponding to a display screen, and calculates an output absolute coordinate value of the indicated position corresponding to the indication input by using the relative coordinates from the relative coordinate calculating circuit. The calculated output absolute coordinate value is output through an output circuit.

Abstract: A series hybrid vehicle control method charges a battery with electric power generated by an electric power generation motor driven by an internal combustion engine, and electric power regenerated by a drive motor. The control method starts generating the electric power by the engine if a requested output exceeds a power generation start threshold value, and stops generating electric power by the engine if the requested output falls below a power generation stop threshold value. A deceleration rate by regeneration of the drive motor is greater in a second advancement shift position than in a first advancement shift position. The power generation start threshold value and/or the power generation stop threshold value where the second advancement shift position has been selected is greater than the power generation start threshold value or the power generation stop threshold value where the first advancement shift position has been selected.
