Abstract: A printer may receive a predetermined notification from a print mediation server. The predetermined notification may be a notification to be sent to the printer by the print mediation server when the print mediation server has stored specific print data and specific condition data indicating a specific print condition to a storage unit according to an instruction from a terminal device. The printer may acquire the specific print data and the specific condition data from the storage unit in a case where the predetermined notification is received. The printer may cause a print executing unit to execute printing of an image represented by the specific data according to the specific print condition indicated by the specific condition data.

Abstract: A printer may judge whether a first type of communication with the print mediation server. The printer may execute the first type of communication and receive a predetermined notification in a case where it is judged that the first type of communication is executable. The printer may, (A) execute, when the predetermined notification is received a second type of communication so as to acquire specific address information, in the case where being judged that the first type of communication is executable and (B) execute, even if the predetermined notification is not received, the second type of communication at a predetermined timing so as to acquire the specific address information in a case where it is judged that the first type of communication is not executable. The printer may acquire the specific print data and print an image represented by the specific print data.

Abstract: Provided is an altitude information acquiring device including a measuring unit which measures atmospheric pressure; a wireless communication unit which performs near field communication with an external device; an altitude information acquiring unit which acquires altitude information from an external positioning device through the wireless communication unit; an inversion detecting unit which detects an inversion of a changing direction of the atmospheric pressure periodically measured by the measuring unit; a communication control unit which controls a timing to acquire the altitude information through the wireless communication unit at a set timing, based on the inversion detected by the inversion detecting unit; and an integrated altitude change acquiring unit which acquires a rise altitude integrated value obtained by integrating an amount of altitude change upon a rise and a fall altitude integrated value obtained by integrating an amount of altitude change upon a fall, based on the acquired altitude i

Abstract: An analog electronic timepiece includes a plurality of hands; a dial plate having scales for time display; a driving unit that drives the hands so that the hands are driven independently of each other; and a control unit that transmits a drive signal to the driving unit and moves the hands to allow the hands to point to positions set for the respective hands. The control unit (i) allows each hand to point to one of positions of one o'clock to nine o'clock and twelve o'clock among the scales to indicate that a digit in a predetermined place represented by each hand is one of “1” to “9” and “0”; and (ii) expresses a numerical value by a combination of digits corresponding to the respective positions pointed by the respective hands.

Abstract: An atmospheric pressure tendency informing apparatus and atmospheric pressure tendency informing method inform atmospheric pressure tendency. In one implementation, the atmospheric pressure tendency informing apparatus includes: an informing section, an atmospheric pressure measuring section, an atmospheric pressure inflection point judging section and an informing control section. The atmospheric pressure inflection point judging section judges whether there is an inflection point of atmospheric pressure, based on atmospheric pressure values of at least three points of time including an atmospheric pressure value measured at present. The informing control section controls the informing section to inform the inflection point of atmospheric pressure as the atmospheric pressure tendency based on a judgment result when the atmospheric pressure inflection point judging section judges there is an inflection point of atmospheric pressure.

Abstract: A communication apparatus may include a reception portion, a decision portion, and a transmission portion. The reception portion may receive a first data request transmitted through a first security level communication, and a second data request transmitted through a second security level communication, the second security level being more secure than the first security level. The decision portion may decide whether a specific data request is the first data request or the second data request. The transmission portion may transmit a specific data to an apparatus that is a transmission source of the specific data request if the specific data request is the second data request, and may transmit different data to the apparatus if the specific data request is the first data request. The different data contains display information for causing the apparatus to retransmit the specific data request through the second security level communication.
