Abstract: When a correlation judging circuit judges that the correlation degree between r pulses in a reception signal and a generated substantially the same template as the r pulses is small, a pulse number adjusting circuit outputs a pulse number signal representing s pulses in place of the r pulses, and a template generating circuit generates the substantially the same template as the s pulses, whereby the correlation judging circuit judges the correlation degree between the r pulses in the reception signal and the generated substantially the same template as the s pulses. Accordingly, even when a confronted transmitter changes the number of pulses contained in a reception signal, synchronization capture of the reception signal can be established.

Abstract: A printer that enables a determination whether a failure has occurred in a device during initialization or a radio wave condition is bad. Receive electric field strength during a time period from a time at which a turn-off message is outputted to a time at which turn-on message is outputted and receive electric field strength after the turn-on message is outputted are measured. The measurements are compared with each other and information indicating the condition of each of a plurality of channels is printed out according to the results of the comparison. A user can reference the printed information to determine whether a failure has occurred in a device or the radio wave condition is bad.
