Abstract

A stylus outputs an output value Pcorresponding to a force Fapplied to a core body of the stylus, and includes an MCU. The MCU sets profile data representing a correspondence relation between a primary pen pressure value Pand the output value Pbased on a characteristic fof a pen pressure detecting portion PD of the stylus. The profile data broadly or indirectly defines a relation h between the force Fand the output value P. The MCU repeatedly obtains the primary pen pressure value Pcorresponding to the force Ffrom the pen pressure detecting portion PD. The MCU, each time the primary pen pressure value Pis obtained, obtains the output value Pfrom the primary pen pressure value Pbased on the profile data and outputs the output value P. The stylus allows for decoupling (isolating) the configuration of the pen pressure detecting portion PD from the output value Poutputted from the stylus.
